Answer:

(B) $0.50

Explanation:

The total cost is a function of the number of maps sold and the number of books sold. To determine the cost of each, a set of equations have to be solved simultaneously.

Let the cost of a map be m and that of a book be b

12m + 10b = 38

20m + 15b = 60

6m + 5b = 19

4m/3 + b = 4, b = 4 - 4m/3

6m + 20 - 20m/3 = 19

2m/3 = 1

m = 3/2 = 1.50

b = 4 - 4m/3

b = 4 - 2 = 2

The cost of a book is $2 while that of a map is $1.50

Hence a map sell for $0.50 less than a book.

To whom must licensees provide agency disclosures prior to entering into an agency agreement?
tiny-mole [99]

A licensee who is operating in the capacity of a party's designated agent must notify any clients of the existence of the agency relationship in writing.

<h3><u>An agency agreement is what?</u></h3>

In a legal contract known as an agency agreement, the first party, known as the "principal," agrees that the activities of the second party, known as the "agent," bind the principal to later agreements made by the agent as if the principal had made them personally.

In law, the ability of the agent to bind the principal is known as authority. A person may be compelled to pay for purchases made by a close relative using their credit card if they provide their credit card to them, which is an example of implied authority generated by an agreement.

If a company has a capital structure of $5,000,000 common stock with a cost of 17%, $2,000,000 bonds at 4%, $1,000,000 of short
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital; formula is as follows;

WACC = wE*re + wP*wp + wD*rd(1-tax)

where w= weight of...

r = cost of ...

E= common equity

P = preferred stock

D = Debt

Find the weights of each source of capital;

WACC = (0.50*0.17) +(0.20*0.03) + [0.20*0.04(1-0.40)] +[0.10*0.07(1-0.40)]

WACC = 0.085 +0.006 + 0.0048 + 0.0042

WACC = 0.1 or 10%
