Answer:

8.67%

Explanation:

The computation of cost of equity is shown below:-

Before capitalization the value of equity = Interest and taxes × (1 - tax rate) ÷ Cost of capital

= $1,500 × (1 - 0.35) ÷ 0.08

= $1,500 × 0.65 ÷ 0.08

= $12,188

Value of firm with debt = The value of equity before capitalization + (Bonds outstanding × tax rate)

= $12,188 + ($3,500 × 0.35)

= $13,413

After recapitalization debt equity ratio = Cost of capital + ((Cost of capital - Coupon percentage) × Tax rate × (1 - tax rate)

= 0.08 + ((0.08 - 0.05) × (0.35) × (0.65))

= 0.08 + ((0.03) × (0.35) × (0.65))

= 8.67%

holton is the manager at a small restaurant. What can he do to ensure the workplace offers a safe environment for employees?
Bogdan [553]
A safe environment includes the safety of workers doing there jobs and could be to protect them if something bad occurred. In a restaurant, have a first aid kit, have an eyelash station if chemicals are used to clean, have a list of all important phone numbers available, depending on the neighborhood; a panic button to alert police, a system to ensure employees are safe in the parking lot; to and from work, have the workers in the kitchen wear non slip shoes, tie hair back, there are so many things that need to be considered.
