ollegr [7]

Answer:

A) 10.15%

Explanation:

Cost of equity (Re) = 14.06% or 0.1406

cost of preferred stock (Rp) = 7/65 = 0.10769

cost of bonds (Rb) = 7.5% or 0.075

 outstanding shares = 2.5 million shares x $42 = $105 million

bonds outstanding = $1,000 x 80,000 bonds = $80 million

preferred stock = $65 x 750,000 = $48.75 million

corporate tax rate = 38% or 0.38

total market value of equity + debt (in millions) = $105 + $48.75 + $80 = $233.75

WACC = [(outstanding shares / total market value) x Re] + [(preferred stock / total market value) x Rp] + {[(bonds outstanding / total market value) x Rb] x (1 - tax rate)}

WACC = [($105m / $233.75m) x 0.1406] + [($48.75m / $233.75m) x 0.10769] + {[($80m / $233.75m) x 0.075] x (1 - 0.38)}

WACC = 0.06316 + 0.02246 + 0.01591 = 0.10153 or 10.15%

Virty [35]

Answer:

should conform to the conventions of the receiver's country

Explanation:

The more an international business adapts its operations to the specific culture of the countries where it operates, the more likely it is that it will succeed, since customers are very sensitive to their own culture, and lacking this understanding can result in ineffective communication, and less sales.

For this reason, interantional business messages should conform to the conventions of the receiver's country: like this, people in the receiver country will not only understand the message clearly, but will also feel identified with it, raising their level of trust in the company.
