Answer:

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

Explanation:

The risk-adjusted discount factor = cost of equity + the adjustment

Cost of equity can be calculated using the capital asset pricing model CAPM

Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 3.3%, Rm- 7.5%, β- 0.94

Cost of equity = Rf + β (Rm -Rf)

Cost of equity = 3.3% + 0.94×(7.5-3.3)= 7.248

The risk-adjusted discount factor=  7.248 + 2.5= 9.748

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

vekshin1

Answer:

Both goods are originally labor intensive, so we can conclude that the country has a lot of labor resources, while their capital resources should be rather limited. Since the world price of good X increases compared to the price of good Y, then the country will export larger amounts of good X since its price is relatively higher.
