Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Debt = D ÷ (E + D)
= 0.8 ÷ (1 + 0.8)
= 0.4444
Now
Weight of equity = 1 - Debt
= 1 - 0.4444
= 0.5556
As per Dividend discount model
Price = Dividend in 1 year ÷ (cost of equity - growth rate)
40 = $2 ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.06)
Cost of equity = 11%
Cost of debt
K = N
Let us assume the par value be $1,000
Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon) ÷ (1 + YTM)^k] + Par value ÷ (1 + YTM)^N
k=1
K =25
$804 =∑ [(7 × $1000 ÷ 100)/(1 + YTM ÷ 100)^k] + $1000 ÷ (1 + YTM ÷ 100)^25
k=1
YTM = 9
After tax cost of debt = cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)
= 9 × (1 - 0.21)
= 7.11
WACC = after tax cost of debt × W(D) + cost of equity ×W(E)
= 7.11 × 0.4444 + 11 × 0.5556
= 9.27%
As we can see that the WACC is lower than the return so it should be undertake the expansion
Answer:
Their study of data from the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index found that while “life evaluations rise steadily with income,” emotional well-being drops off at about $75,000 a year. Beyond $75,000, money is important for life evaluation but does nothing for happiness, enjoyment, sadness, or stress.

Under NASAA's Statement of Policy on Dishonest or Unethical Business Practices of Broker/Dealers and Agents, which of the following is NOT considered when determining excessive trading in a client's account:
C) Length of association with the agent.
Explanation:
- NASAA stands for The North American Securities Administrators Association that ensure the safety of the investor.
- The option a, b and d are not correct as the Under the NASAA's statement of policy of dishonest or unethical business practices of broker/dealers and agents, investment objectives of the client, financial status of the client as well as the character of the account are considered.
- The option c is correct as length of association with the agent is not the concern of the NASAA so it is taken into the consideration.
Answer: b. Set higher prices to the students as their demand is relatively more inelastic.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the change in quantity demanded to changes in price levels.
If demand is inelastic, a small change in price has a small effect on quantity demanded. An inelastic demand usually has a coefficient of less than 1.
The elasticity of demand for students and senior citizens are both inelastic but that of the students is greater than that of senior citizens. They are less responsive to price changes when compared with senior citizens.
Answer:
Explanation:
For computing the cost of inventorying, we have to apply the formula which is shown below:
= Total costs ÷ Number of items
1. Cost of inventorying = Total costs ÷ Number of items
= $125 ÷ 100 items
= $1.25
Total cost = $100 + $25 = $125
2. Cost of inventorying = Total costs ÷ Number of items
= $150 ÷ 150 items
= $1
Total cost = $100 + $25 + $25 = $150
3. Cost of inventorying = Total costs ÷ Number of items
= $175 ÷ 160 items
= $1.10
Total cost = $100 + $25 + $25 + $25 = $175
$25 is the each worker pay
To minimize the cost we required two workers as the cost of inventorying is lesser than other two.
