Answer: is highly dependent upon a company's tax rate.

Explanation:

The after-tax cost of debt is defined as the net cost of debt that is determined by adjusting the gross cost of debt incurred for its tax benefits. The after-tax cost of debt

equals the pre-tax cost of debt which is then multiplied by (1 – tax rate).

The after-tax cost of debt is the cost of debt which is included while calculating the weighted average cost of capital and it has a greater effect on the cost of capital of a firm when there's an increase in the debt-equity ratio.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: 6.6%

Rate of Return on 5 year Treasury Security = Real Risk Free Rate + Inflation Rate

= 2.5% + 4.1%

= 6.6%

g If you require an annual rate of return of 12 percent, what should be the estimate of the amount of the annual dividend which
choli [55]

Answer:

Its very simple, the required return would be 12% of the amount invested today. And this can be explained by the use of DVM (Dividend valuation Model), which is as under:

For ordinary shares  r = (Dividend after one year / Share price now)

Dividend after one year =  Required return * Share Price Now

Assuming no growth in the dividends, we can say that the required return would be 12% of the amount invested now which is the share price of the ordinary shares.

Oxana [17]
<span>Lost profits are consequential damages. Haddad is right that a buyer may not recover consequential damages that it could have prevented by cover. But Jewell-Rung offered legitimate reasons for not covering: the only Lakeland garments now available to it were those made by Olympic. Olympic would not sell a competitor the garments at reasonable prices. Further, Jewell-Rung could not rely on the quality of the garments manufactured by a different company. Jewell-Rung's failure to cover was reasonable and the company was entitled to prove its lost profits. Jewell-Rung Agency, Inc. v. Haddad Organization, Ltd</span>
