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:
C) $120,000
Explanation:
Since Copper corporation owns 65% of Bronze Corporation, its dividends received deduction (DRD) is 80% of the dividends received.
- stake at another corporation is less than 20%, DRD = 70%
- stake at another corporation is between 20% to 80%, DRD = 80% (Copper's case)
- stake at another corporation is higher than 80%, DRD = 100%
Therefore, if Copper received $150,000 in dividends from Bronze, it can deduct 80% of that amount = 80% x $150,000 = $120,000
