Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 6.45%

Explanation:

In computing the after tax cost of debt, the starting point would be to ascertain the pre-tax cost of debt-yield to maturity-before applying the tax.

The yield to maturity can be calculated using the rate formula in excel ,given as :=rate( nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the nuer of coupon interest the bond would pay which is 20

pmt is the annual payment of the bond which is 13%*$1000=$130

pv is the current price of the bond $1,181.96

fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000

=rate(20,130,-1181.96,1000)

rate=10.75%

Pretax cost of debt is 10.75%

After tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-tax rate)

tax rate is 40%=0.4

                                  =10.75%*(1-0.4)

                                   =6.45%

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: increases and the interest rate rises.

Explanation:

As a result of the increase in a demand for investment, entities will borrow more money from financial institutions in order to undertake these investments.

Investments will therefore rise as a result. Unfortunately, due to the increase in demand for loanable funds from financial institutions, interest rates will rise as well to show that demand is increasing faster than supply of loanable funds as posited by the law of demand and supply.

3. Imagine that you are working at a clothing or grocery store, and answer the questions
Deffense [45]

B. To help determine how much inventory to keep in stock of each item in the outlet, I would consider two factors. The first one is the <u>certain amount of each item type </u>in the first week - determining the number of each items input in the stock to be the original data to compare. The second is the <u>number of items sold and still on stock</u>. This would help determine invetory to keep in stock.

B. If I was running a store, I would prefer to use the pick up at store buying method. There would be cashier at the register to check the products and bills as well as receive money from the customers. This is the traditional and still always the most common methods. As the fact that people nowadays still like shopping in physical store, this is definitely the most effective method.

C. The inventory control method I would use when operating a store is to adopt modern technology like bar code to control the inventory stock. By using this technology, I would need to consider the <u>bar code</u> for each type and establishing <u>software</u> to automatically input the information about the number of items sold and in stock. With inputting the number of total items at the beginning and giving each item its corresponding bar code, the sales or number of stock would be tracked by the software.

D. An example of two commodities to be displayed together at store is <u>pencil and rubber</u>. Pencil and rubber undoubtedly are complementary products of each other. Complementary products are made to be used together. Each item requires the other for their complete uses. This is also the case of Rubber and Pencil and each item would not be fully used without the presence of the other.

Suppose the demand function​ (D) for golf clubs​ is: Qequals150minus1.00​P, where P is the price paid by consumers in dollars pe
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

P = $75 per club

n= 75,000 clubs

Explanation:

The demand and supply functions are:

(D): Q=150-1.00P\\(S): Q=1.00P\\

The equilibrium price is the price that yields a quantity demanded equal to the quantity supplied:

150-1.00P=1.00P\\P=\frac{150}{2}\\P=\$75

The number of units sold at that price is:

n=1,000*(1.00*75)\\n=75,000\ units
