Answer:

8.06%

Explanation:

According to the Fisher equation

( 1 + Total rate of return) = (1 + real rate of return) x ( 1 + inflation rate)

(1.14) = (1.055) x ( 1 + inflation rate)

Inflation rate = 1.080569 - 1 = 0.080569 = 8.06%

Maurinko [17]

Answer: 12.5%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Beta (B) = 1.3

Marginal tax rate = 34%

Risk free interest rate = 6%

Market rate of return = 11%

The cost of equity is calculated using the relation:

Risk free rate of return + Beta(market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Cost of equity = 6% + 1.3(11% - 6%)

Cost of equity = 6% + 1.3(5%)

Cost of equity = 6% + 6.5%

Cost of equity = 12.5%

Therefore, the firm's cost of internal equity is 12.5%

Answer:

This is very simple, they should start billing their clients right away.

You don't have to bill your clients for the full legal expenses, but they for sure need to start making some money.

It is very normal that new businesses don't get enough revenue to cover their operation expenses right away. Even for big corporations, like Amazon and FB, it may take years to reach the break even point.

When you open a business you have to keep some money as reserve to cover some expenses for at least a few months.

Answer:

C. Debt to Income Ratio

Explanation:

The debt to income ratio (DTI)provides a picture of the level of debts of a borrower. The DTI is usually expressed as a percentage of gross income. A high debt to income ratio indicates a person spends a high percentage of income on paying debts.

Lenders use the debt to income ratio to assess a borrower's ability to repay debts. Individuals with low DTI are preferred to those with a high one.
