Answer:

111 pounds

Explanation:

The number of pounds Cynthia should order each day can be calculated as follows

Calculation

Standard deviation = 20

Mean = 100

Cost of actual utilization = 8-3 = 5

Cost of Under utilization = 4-2 = 2

Probability of sale = Co/(Cu+Co)

Probability of sale = 5/(5+2)

Probability of sale =0.714

Z score at above probability = z = 0.57

hence cynthia should order= mean+z*standard deviation

Order = 100+0.57*20

Order = 111.4 or 111 pounds

Marina86 [1]

Answer: 8.45%

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Holmes Company's currently has an outstanding bonds and has a 8% coupon and a 13% yield to maturity.

We are further told that Holmes believes it could issue new bonds at par that would provide a similar yield to maturity and that its marginal tax rate is 35%.

Holmes's after-tax cost of debt will therefore be calculated as:

= Yield to maturity × (1 - Marginal tax rate)

= 13% × (1 - 35%)

= 13% × (65%)

= 0.13 × 0.65

= 0.0845

= 8.45%
