The following are exogenous (not directly affected by income): G = 11 I = 4 X = M = 0 The consumption function is: C = k + cY, w
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: the answer is 90.0

Explanation:

From the question above, we are given:

G = 11

I = 4

X = M = 0

Consumption function is:

C = k + cY

Where:

k = 3

c = 0.8

The GDP of a nation is given as:

Y = C + I + G + NX

By imputing the values into the GDP equation, we have:

Y = k + cY + 4 + 11 + 0

Y = 3 + 0.8Y +15

Y - 0.8Y = 18

0.2Y = 18

Y = 90.0

The firm's tax rate is 34 percent. The firm's pre-tax cost of debt is 8 percent; the firm's debt-to-equity ratio is 3; the risk-
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

WACC = 0.08085  or  8.085% rounded off to 8.09%

Option c is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
  • r represents the cost of each component

We first need to calculate the weight of each stock. We know the basic accounting equation is,

Assets = Debt + Equity

We know the debt to equity ratio is 3. Then total assets will be,

Assets = 3 + 1

Assets = 4

Using the CAPM equation, we can calculate the cost of equity.

r = risk free rate  +  Beta  *  Market risk premium

r = 0.03  +  1.5  *  0.09

r = 0.165  or  16.5%

WACC = 3/4  *  0.08  *  (1 - 0.34)  +  1/4  *  0.165

WACC = 0.08085  or  8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
