Answer: 9.7%
Explanation:
Given Data
Rf = Risk free return = 6%,
Rpm = Risk premium = 4%,
Beta = 0.9
Wd = Debt = 20%
rd = cost of debt = 8%
We = equity = 80%
Re = Rf + Beta (Rpm)
= 0.06 +0.9 (0.04)
= 0.096 * 100
= 9.6%
Unlevered Equity Cost ;
ReU= Wd × rd + We × re
= 0.20 × 8% + 0.80 × 9.6%
= 9.28%
Levered Equity Cost:
New Debt = 60%,
New Equity = 40%,
New rd = 9%
ReL = ReU + (ReU - rd) (D ÷ E)
= 9.28% + (9.28% - 9%) (0.60 ÷ 0.40)
= 0.097 * 100
= 9.7%
Answer:
C. Reject W
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) which is shown below:
Expected return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate - Risk-free rate of return)
= 7% + 1.6 × (12%-7%)
= 7% + 1.6 × 5%
= 7% + 8%
= 15%
The Project W should be rejected as it gives only 14% expected return which is less than the derived expected return.
Answer: Option A
Explanation: A convenience store might be part of a gas / petrol station, allowing consumers to easily buy goods and services when fueling their vehicles. It may be situated along a busy highway, in a metropolitan area, alongside a train or train station, or at another regional hub.
Generally convenience stores charge significantly higher prices than traditional grocery stores or supermarkets, as these wholesalers order limited stock amounts at higher per-unit prices. Convenience stores, however, compensate for this deficit by providing longer open hours, more locations and shorter cashier lines.
