Three contractors (call them a, b, and
patriot [66]

Answer:  The probabilities of winning a contract are

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}  

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}  

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}


Let the Probability of C winning the contract - P(C) be 'X'

Then,

Probability of B winning the contract - P(B) will be '7X'     and

Probability of A winning the contract - P(A) will be \mathbf{P(A) = 4 * P(B) = 4*7X = 28X}

Since the total of all the probabilities is 1,

\mathbf{P(A) + P(B) + P(C) =1}

\mathbf{28X + 7X + X =1}

\mathbf{36X =1}

\mathbf{X =\frac{1}{36}}

So,

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}

Calculate the firm’s WACC (using 2018 numbers). (You will need to collect information on the long-term debt and common stock equ
tester [92]

Answer:

Before tax cost of debt is 7.12%

After tax cost of debt is 4.27%

Cost of equity is 10%

Explanation:

The before-tax cost of debt can be determined using excel rate formula as found below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of semiannual payments the bond has i.e 20*2=40

pmt is the amount of semiannual payment=$1000*7.5%*6/12=$ 37.50  

pv is the current price =$1000*104%=$1,040.00  

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(40,37.50,-1040,1000)=3.56%

The 3.56% is semiannual yield, hence 7.12% per year (3.56%*2)

After-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-t) where is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

after-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-0.40)=4.27%

Cost of equity is determined using the below CAPM formula:

Ke=Rf+Beta*(Mr-Rf)

Rf is the risk free rate of 4%

Beta is 1.2

Mr is the market return of 9%

Ke=4%+1.2(9%-4%)=10.00%

Reika [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

The college student loan burden is second only to mortgages in consumer debt In the United States. The government estimates that some 41 million students together owe more than $1.2 trillion. In North Carolina, what is the relationship between student loan debt and the tuition/fees that the students pay? After obtaining data for 14 four-year universities in the State University System of North Carolina (data for Elizabeth City State University and Winston Salem State University were not available), suppose we assume a simple linear modelyi= β0+ β1xi+ εito describe this relationship, where xi is the academic year tuition/fees at school In i

and yi is the average student loan debt of graduates of school i, i = 1, ..., 14. Shown below are summary statistics for the 14 schools.

NB: please check the attached document for complete work.
