RideAnS [48]

Answer:

D. production blocking.

Explanation:

Janet is suffering from production blocking. This is an issue encountered in brainstorming sessions related to the fact that only one member must speak at a time which can prevent other members from sharing their ideas as they occur and make it difficult for them to concentrate in their own idea since they need to be paying close attention to whatever is being said.

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a. The required rate of return on Okefenokee stock is 16%.

b. WACC = 10.56%.

c. Estimate the discount rate for an expansion of the company's present business.

It should be the same as the WACC = 10.56%

d. The required rate of return on Okefenokee's new venture is Ke = 18 %.

Explanation:

Here the given is,

E = $6 million, D = $4 million, Beta = 1.2,

Rmp = the expected risk premium on the market =10%.

Rf = The Treasury bill rate = 4%

a. The required rate of return on Okefenokee stock,

$Ke = Rf + Beta \times Rmp = 4 + 1.2 \times 10 = 16%$ %.

b. Tax rate, T = 40%

The proportion of debt = $Wd = D / (D + E) = 4 / (6 + 4) = 0.4$

Proportion of equity, We = 1 - Wd = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

Cost of debt, Kd = Risk-free rate as debt is free of default = 4%

$WACC = Wd \times Kd \times (1 - T) + We\times Ke\\\\ = 0.4 \times4\times (1 - 40) + 0.6 \times 16\\\\ = 10.56%$

WACC = 10.56%.

c. Estimate the discount rate for an expansion of the company's present business.

It should be the same as the WACC = 10.56%

d. Suppose the company wants to diversify into the manufacture of rose-colored glasses. The beta of optical manufacturers with no debt outstanding is 1.4. What is the required rate of return on Okefenokee's new venture? (You should assume that the risky project will not enable the firm to issue an additional debt)

$Ke = Rf + Beta \times Rmp\\\\Ke = 4 + 1.4 \times 10 = 18%$

Ke = 18 %.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume a company's target capital structure is 50% debt and 50% common equity.a. T

Bond [772]

The correct statement among the given is 'cost of equity is always equal to or greater than the cost of debt' .

Option-c

<u>Explanation: </u>

Debt on assets which are less likely to lose is secured more uncertainty leads to lower returns, hence lower costs. The risk of loss to equity holders also remains greater and not even assured against any collateral. In comparison to higher risk equity holders foresee higher returns.

This is why debt costs are higher. Such high risk will lead to higher equity costs than debt costs. To investors, equity costs would be returned on equity investment, and debt costs would be made as part of debt investment.
