Answer:

7.43%

Explanation:

Where the debt is publicly traded , the cost of debt is equal to the yield to maturity

Approximate yield to maturity = [coupon +(face value - market price )/ number of years to maturity ]/ [{face value + market price]/2]*100

Face value - 2000

Market price - 1905

years to maturity= 30 years

Coupon =( 6.9%*2000)/ 2 = 69

Workings

[69 + (2000-1905)/30] / [(2000+1905]/2 *100)

([69+3.17]/[(3905]/2*100)

(72.17/1952) * 100 = 3.70

Annual yield = 3.7*2= 7.4%

7.4 % being an approximate yield value , the closest option is 7.43%

Given that,

Cost of new economics textbook = $100

Cost of new CD player = $100

Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.

If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.

As the cost of both the products are identical, so the opportunity cost of buying new economics textbook is the enjoyment of the new CD player.

There will be no effect on working capital upon write off as the entries required would be a credit to receivables and a debit to allowance account.
