Answer:

The WACC will be 10% for average risk

below when the risk is low

and above 10% when the risk is higher than average

as the cost of capital (required return from the stockholders) will increase pushing the WACC higher

Explanation:

As the WACC is composed by the cost of debt and the cost of equity a higher risk will require a better return for the investor thus, the equity proportion that determinates the WACC will change along the project risk.

In the market for personal computers, we would expect the Equilibrium quantity to rise and the change in the equilibrium price to be ambiguous.

<h3>What is equilibrium quantity?</h3>
  • When there is no shortage or surplus of a product on the market, it is said to be in equilibrium quantity.
  • When supply and demand meet, the amount of an item that consumers want to buy equals the amount supplied by its producers.
  • The equilibrium price is the only price at which consumers' and producers' plans coincide—that is, the amount consumers want to buy of the product, quantity demanded, equals the amount producers want to sell, quantity supplied.
  • Assume there is an increase in both supply and demand for personal computers.
  • The Equilibrium quantity would then rise in the market for personal computers, while the change in the equilibrium price would be ambiguous.

Therefore, in the market for personal computers, we would expect the equilibrium quantity to rise and the change in the equilibrium price to be ambiguous.

Giveaways                                        297.50 ($0.35 * 850)

Advertising costs                              165.00

Strike441 [17]

Total cost at a production level of 400 units = $8,500

Each unit of pulp requires = 6 direct labor hours

Variable cost = $1.50 per direct labor hour

Total variable cost:

= Cost per direct labor hour × Direct labor hours required for each unit × No. of units produced

= $1.50 × 6 × 400

= $3,600

Total cost is sum total of total fixed cost and total variable cost.

Total cost = Total fixed cost + Total variable cost

$8,500 = Total fixed cost + $3,600

$8,500 - $3,600 = Total fixed cost
