a. Risk Premium on J & M common stock = Return on Market - Risk Free Rate
Risk Premium on J & M common stock = 11% - 6%
Risk Premium on J & M common stock = 5%
b. Required Return = Rf + Beta * (RM - RF)
= 6% + 1.2*5%
= 6% + 6%
= 12%
So the required rate of return is 12% which should be atleast provided by J & M common stock.
c. J & M cost of common stock equity is the same as b that equals to 12%.
Answer:
4%
Explanation:
For Builtrite, we can find the probability of cash flows by using the following formula:
Z = (X - C) / S
Average Cash Flow is $16000 which denoted by "C"
Standard Deviation is $4000 and is denoted by "S"
And
For cash flows that are less than $9000 which is denoted by X in the equation, "Z" can be calculated as under:
Z = (X - C) / S = ($9,000 - $16,000) / $4,000 = -1.75
As Z is less than -1.75, now we can see that the probability from the Z-table is 4% for -1.75.
Hence the probability of cash flow below $9,000 is 4%.

Answer:
Dollar Tree = $5,643
Target = $11,297
Explanation:
For dollar tree, using the given equation:
13,501 = 7,858 + stockholder's equity
Stockholder's equity = 13,501 - 7,858
= $5,643
For target, using the given equation:
41,290 = 29,993 + stockholder's equity
Stockholder's equity = 41,290 - 29,993
= $11,297
