Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

When the price of ground beef increases, this means that there is an increase in the cost of production of hamburgers because the beef is used as an input in the production of hamburgers.

So, an increase in the price of beef will result in a decrease in the supply of hamburgers because it will become less profitable for the suppliers and this will also shifts the supply curve leftwards.

Hence, this lower supply of hamburgers will cause the price of hamburgers to rise.

Suppose you inherited $275,000 and invested it at 8.25% per year. How much could you withdraw at the end of each of the next 20
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$28,533.5

Explanation:

Principal value (PV) = $275,000

Time = 20 years

Rate = 8.25%

Present Value = P ((1-(1+R)^-n) / r)

275,000 = P ((1- (1 + 0.0825)^-20) /.0825)

275,000 x .0825 = P (1-(1/1.0825)^20)

22687.5 = P ((1.0825^20 - 1) / (1.0825 ^20))

22687.50 = P (4.8816 - 1 / 4.8816)

22687.5 = P (3.886 / 4.8816)

22687.5 = p(0.7951)

P = 22687.5 / 0.7951

P = $28533.5

A firm currently has a debt-equity ratio of 1/2. The debt, which is virtually riskless, pays an interest rate of 6%. The expecte
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Expected return on equity is 11.33%

Explanation:

Using Weighted Average Cost Capital without tax formula, overall rate of return is given by the formula:

WACC=(Ke*E/V)+(Kd*D/V)

Kd is the cost of debt at 6%

Ke is the cost of equity at 12%

D/E=1/2 which means debt is 1 and equity is 2

D/V=debt/debt+equity=1/1+2=1/3

E/V=equity/debt+equity=2/1+2=2/3

WACC=(12%*2/3)+(6%*1/3)

WACC=10%

If the firm reduces debt-equity ratio to 1/3,1 is for debt 3 is for equity

D/V=debt/debt+equity=1/1+3=1/4

E/V=equity/debt+equity=3/1+3=3/4

WACC=10%

10%=(Ke*3/4)+(6%*1/4)

10%=(Ke*3/4)+1.5%

10%-1.5%=Ke*3/4

8.5%=Ke*3/4

8.5%=3Ke/4

8.5%*4=3 Ke

34%=3 Ke

Ke=34%/3

Ke=11.33%
