Answer:

The firm's cost of equity is C. 14.05 percent

Explanation:

Hi, we need to use the following formula in order to find the cost of equity of this firm.

r(e)=rf+beta(rm-rf)

Where:

r(e) = Cost of equity

rf = risk free rate

rm = Market rate of return

Everything should look like this.

r(e)=0.04+1.34(0.115-0.04)=0.1405

So, this firm´s cost of equity is 14.05%

Best of luck

<h3>What happens when federal reserves increase?</h3>

Increasing the money supply has a number of consequences which are:

To boost the economy, the Federal government expands the money supply.

Customers use credit because interest rates are lower when the money supply is high.

The unemployment rate is reduced when the money supply is increased.

When the money supply is increased, the economy generally grows because people have more money to spend.

As the amount of money available increases, loans will become more affordable, encouraging people to take out loans knowing that they will just have to pay lesser interest rates.

Assume the probability of a pessimistic, most likely and optimistic state of nature is .25, .45 and .30, and the returns associa
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

E) none of the above

12.70% and 2.49% standard deviation

Explanation:

We multiply probability by the outcome to get the weighted amount, we add them and get the expected return.

probability outcome weighted

0.25          0.10   0.0250

0.45          0.12   0.0540

0.30          0.16   0.0480

expected return  0.1270

Now that we got the expected return at 12.7%

We now subtract the possible outcome with the expected return and square them:

(0.127-0.1)^2

(0.127-0.12)^2

(0.127-0.16)^2

Then we add them and divide by the sample which is 3

0.000622  

²√ 0.000622   = 0.024944383

<u><em>Final step,</em></u> will be the square root which gives the standard deviation

of 2.49% = 0.024947

If you had a choice how much are you willing to pay per month to have access to and use the various social media platforms?​
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer: $10 per month

Explanation:

$10 would be an ideal amount for me to pay to have access to the various social media sites if the major sites are on offer.

I think this amount reasonable because I do not use social media all that much but I would still like access to a variety of them. I would essentially therefore, be paying for my reduced time on the net.

Some might say that the companies might not make a profit if they charge $10 a month but I think they will because they make most of their money from ads so it would be good for them to offer the lowest subscription prices so that they can capture more people which will appeal to advertisers.

The issue of how much government should be involved in the economy has been the subject of much debate in Canada. In the United
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

<u><em>But where do we go from here? </em></u>

It depends on the result of more government intervention on quality life standards.

<u><em>Do we need less or more government involvement? </em></u>

It depends on the problems that need to be addressed. For example, to address problems such inequality it is mandatory that the government gets involve and create laws to prevent it. But surely for more movement of capitals there is no need of higher government involvement.

<u><em>Is it a question of the quality of that involvement?   </em></u>

Yes. If government has an effective involvement there is even desirable to have its intervention but if it complicates everything then is repeled.

<u><em>Could it be smarter rather than just less? </em></u>

Yes, because it is proved that the economy acts in an effective way to good policy making.

<u><em>How can the cost of government involvement decrease?</em></u>

In this aspect it is important to mention the environmental issues in nowadasy economy. If the measurement of what is defined as "cost" is understand in the long run as conservation and balance between nature and economic explotation of resources.
