Answer: A. $70,000

No

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the cost of forgone opportunity. It is what Jing would have earned ($70000) if she didn't start her business.

Explanation:

 A)   Yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

Where C – Interest payment    = $90

FV – Face value of the security

= $1000

PV – Present value/curent market value = $960

t – years it takes the security to reach maturity= 10 years

imputing the values and calculating,

yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

= $90 + (1000-960)/10} / 1000 + 960 /2

$90 + 4= $94 /980= 0.0959

therefore Yield to maturity is 9.59%

B)   After tax cost of debt =    Yield To Maturity  x (1 - tax rate)

=9.59% x (1-20%)= 9.59% x (1-0.2 )= 9.59% x 0.8 =

9.59 % x 80%=7.672%
