77julia77 [94]
The two primary factors affecting an entrepreneur choice of legal ownership for a venture are TAXES AND LEGAL LIABILITY.
The type of business that an entrepreneur establish will determine the type and the amount of tax that it will be required to pay. The legal liability of the entrepreneur determines the extent to which he can be liable in case he finds himself in a financial mess.

Handy Man, Inc., has zero coupon bonds outstanding that mature in eight years. The bonds have a face value of $1,000 and a curre
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5.657%

Explanation:

Data provided:

Face value = $1,000

Current market price = $640

Time of maturity, t = 8 year

Now,

the compounding formula is given as:

Face value = Current amount × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where,

r is the rate i.e pretax rate of debt

n is the number of times the interest is compounded i.e for semiannual n = 2

thus, on substituting the values, we get

$ 1,000= $ 640 × (1+\frac{r}{2})^{2\times8}

or

1.5625 = (1+\frac{r}{2})^{16}

or

(1+\frac{r}{2}) = 1.0282

or

r = 0.05657

or

pretax cost of debt = 0.05657 × 100% = 5.657%
