Answer:

c. Mix of funds used to finance the project.

Explanation:

Most of the time businesses don't have the required funds to invest in projects especially capital intensive projects. So businesses raise long term finance from various sources, for example, from capital markets through issuance of shares/stocks and from debt sources through raising long term loans and debt instruments like bonds.

Now each source of finance has a different cost to the business depending upon the likely risks associated with each source of finance and nature of business itself. Therefore, businesses strive to assign such a cost of capital that primarily recovers the cost of finance and generate surplus wealth for the business. So the decision of what cost of capital should be assigned to a project primarily depends upon the the mix of funds used.

Secondly, risk level of the project might somehow effect the required rate of return expected by shareholders and/or debt providers but may not be the primary consideration in this decision.

Assume that a war breaks out abroad, and foreign investors choose to invest more in a large safe country, the United States. The
goldenfox [79]

Answer: the U.S. real interest rate and net exports will both rise.

Explanation: Due to the ongoing war abroad, there would be a reduction in production of goods and services in the affected countries and a rise in the production of goods and services in the safe haven country (US) leading to increased levels of export to meet the demand.

War affects investments negatively. As a result, investments are also moved to the US for safety. However, pressure on US producers and eventual shortage due to increased exports, would lead to inflation and increase in prices of goods and services. To mitigate these effects and to reduce the supply of money, government would increase interest rates.

This explains why both interest rates and export both rise.
