Answer:

Weight of debt, Wd = 0.4842 or 48.42%

Explanation:

WACC = Wd×Rd×(1-t)+We×Ke+Wp×Kp

W is weights of respective portfolios

R is return on respective portfolios

Wd+We+Wp = 1

9.50% = Wd×4.80%+(0.93-Wd)×14.70%+0.07×8.90%

9.5% = Wd×4.80%+13.671%-14.70%×Wd+0.623%

9.90%×Wd = 4.794%

Weight of debt, Wd = 0.4842 or 48.42%

Answer:

Huduko Inc.

The number of servers in this system is:

= 200.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Utilization rate = 30%

Interarrival time of jobs = 8 milliseconds (0.008)

Coefficient of variation = 1.5

Average jobs waiting in the queue to be served = 20

Number of jobs in process = 60

Number of servers processing the 60 jobs = 60

Since the number of servers processing at a time is 60 with a utilization rate of 30%, it means that there are 200 servers in the system (60/30%).
