Answer: a. ineffective branding.

Explanation:

People were already used to seeing Bic as a pen brand to the extent that in some countries Bic is a generic name for all pens . When they introduced the underwear, people could probably see no need to buying an underwear with the Bic brand because they knew it as a pen brand. They therefore could not generate a strong brand association with the new product.

It is the same logic as when an actor has been on a Sitcom for so long that when they take on other roles, the public judges them a bit too harshly for it because they are not used to them in other roles.

alexira [117]

Answer:

The company WACC is 13.30%

Explanation:

For computing the WACC, first we have to find the weight-age of both debt and equity.

Since in the question, the weightage of debt and equity is given which is equals to

Debt = 30%

And, Equity or common stock = 70%

So, we can easily compute the WACC. The formula is shown below

= Weighted of debt × cost of debt × (1- tax rate) + Weighted of equity × cost of equity

= 0.30 × 0.10 × (1 - 0.30) + 0.70 × 0.16

= 0.021 + 0.112

= 13.30%

Hence, the company WACC is 13.30%

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

D. No loss recognized and a reduction in E&P of $200,000

Given that:

  • Current and accumulated E&P : $500,000
  • A distribution of land to its sole shareholder: $200,000
  • E&P basis to Catamount :  $250,000
