Answer: d. export ban

Explanation:

An Export Ban as the term implies refers to restrictions on the sale of a good to another country or set of countries.

In 1975, OPEC in a bid to drive up prices as well as punish countries it viewed as sympathetic to Israel, refused to supply the US and it's Allies with Oil thus reducing supply in the market. This had the effect of driving up oil prices and accomplishing their goals.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Kd = 7%

Ke =      D1      +  g

        Po(1 - FC)

Ke =      $2            + 0.09

        $40(1 - 0.15)

Ke =       $2      +  0.09

              $34

Ke = 0.1488 = 14.88%

WACC = Ke(E/V) + Kd(D/V)(1-T)

WACC = 14.88(60/100) + 7(40/100)(1 - 0.40)

WACC = 8.928 + 1.68

WACC = 10.6%

Explanation:

In this case before-tax cost of debt is given. Cost of equity is expected dividend divided by current market price after flotation cost plus growth rate. WACC is calculated as cost of equity multiplied by the proportion of equity in the capital structure plus after-tax cost of debt multiplied by proportion of debt in the capital structure.
