Answer:

C. skimming

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it is safe to say that by setting the price at $12,700 Xerox used a skimming pricing strategy. This is a pricing strategy in which the firm/company places their new product in the market with the highest price they can give it and go slowly lowering the price as time goes on. This is mostly done with brand new, one of a kind products that do not have competition, like the portable fax machine that Xerox designed.

Long-term debt outstanding: $300,000 Current yield to maturity (rdebt): 8% Number of shares of common stock: 10,000 Price per sh
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Cost of capital=11.18%

Explanation:

First We will calculate the Equity of firm:

Equity= Number of share* Book value per share

Equity= 10,000* $25

Equity= $250,000

Long-term debt=$300,000

Expected rate of return=15%=0.15

Current yield to maturity (rdebt)=8%=0.08.

Value of firm=Equity+Long-term debt

Value of firm= $250,000+$300,000

Value of firm= $550,000

Formula:

Cost\ of \ Capital=\frac{Equity}{Value\ of\ firm}* Rate\ of\ return+\frac{Debit}{Value\ of\ firm}* yield\ to\ maturity

Cost\ of\ Capital=\frac{\$250,000}{\$550,000}*0.15+\frac{\$300,000}{\$550,000}*0.08\\  Cost\ of\ Capital=0.1118

Cost of capital=11.18%
