Answer:

Cost of capital is the overall rate of return expected by investors while the discount rate is the minimum rate of return used for appraising a project in order to obtain the net present value.

Explanation:

Cost of capital is calculated as cost of equity multiplied by the proportion of equity in the capital structure plus cost of debt multiplied by the proportion of debt in the capital structure plus cost of preferred stock multiplied by the proportion of preferred stock in the capital structure.

Discount rate is the rate used for determining the attractiveness of a project. This rate is used for determining the net present value of a project.

5) A car rental company offers two plans for one way rentals. Plan I charges $36 per day and 17 cents per mile. Plan II charges
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

a. Plan I is better is we drive 300 miles in a day.

b. 150 miles.

Explanation:

a. if mileage is 300 then rental charges will be,

Plan I : $36 + 17 cents * miles

$36 + 0.17 * 300 = $41.10.

Plan II : $24 + 25 cents * miles

$24 + 0.25 * 300 = $99.00

Plan I total cost for 300 miles is $41.10 whereas Plan II total cost for 300 miles is $99.00. Plan I is better plan and cost effective.

b. For mileage (m) calculation we will use equation;

Plan I = Plan II

$36 + 0.17m = $24 +0.25m

0.25m - 0.17m = $36 - $24

m = $12 / 0.08

m = 150 miles.
