Answer:

D. sociological imagination

Explanation:

sociological imagination refers to the way we see how personal experiences felt by certain individuals lead to a certain outcome.

This could be used in analyzing people's preference in music.

Let's use reggae music for example.

Even though we can't apply this to all reggae music, large majority of its rhythm tend to be really slow and relaxing and the lyrics that the reggae artists used tend to be revolved around maintaining peace and enjoying life.

With this very characteristics alone, people who have the desire or personality to maintain peace and enjoy life has the higher chance to develop strong preference to this genre of music compared to let's say teenagers who are in their rebellious phase.

Suppose your company needs $43 million to build a new assembly line. Your target debt-equity ratio is .65. The flotation cost fo

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Debt = 0.65

Weight = 39.39%

Cost for debt = 2%

Product = 39.39% × 2%

= 0.3939 × 0.02

= 0.007878

Equity = 1.00

Weight = 60.61%

Cost for equity = 6%

Product = 60.61% × 6%

= 0.6061 × 0.06

= 0.036366

Weighted average floatation cost:

= 0.007878 + 0.036366

= 0.044244

= 4.42%

The true cost of the building will then be:

= Funds needed / (1 - Floatation cost)

= $43,000,000 / (1 - 0.044244)

= $43,000,000 / 0.955756

= $44,990,562

ollegr [7]

Answer:

A) 10.15%

Explanation:

Cost of equity (Re) = 14.06% or 0.1406

cost of preferred stock (Rp) = 7/65 = 0.10769

cost of bonds (Rb) = 7.5% or 0.075

outstanding shares = 2.5 million shares x $42 = $105 million

bonds outstanding = $1,000 x 80,000 bonds = $80 million

preferred stock = $65 x 750,000 = $48.75 million

corporate tax rate = 38% or 0.38

total market value of equity + debt (in millions) = $105 + $48.75 + $80 = $233.75

WACC = [(outstanding shares / total market value) x Re] + [(preferred stock / total market value) x Rp] + {[(bonds outstanding / total market value) x Rb] x (1 - tax rate)}

WACC = [($105m / $233.75m) x 0.1406] + [($48.75m / $233.75m) x 0.10769] + {[($80m / $233.75m) x 0.075] x (1 - 0.38)}

WACC = 0.06316 + 0.02246 + 0.01591 = 0.10153 or 10.15%
