Explanation:
In a contract, the third-party beneficiary is a business or a person that benefits from the agreement and the terms of the contract that is made between the two other parties. According to law, third-party beneficiary have certain rights which they can enforced if the contract is not fulfilled.
In the context, Mesa is a third party beneficiary. The Mesa County enters into a contract with New Construct Inc. to construct a court house. Now New Construct Inc. again hires the firm Odell to excavate the land site.
While excavating Odell damages few nearby properties, so Mesa County files a law suit against Odell. But Odell argues that Odell is not in agreement with Mesa County or have not entered into with any contract with the County, so Mesa cannot sue the excavator.
But the court hold that as Mesa County is the third party beneficiary of the contract and have certain rights, Odell is held liable for the loss and should compensate for the loss to the County.

Answer:
A) 10.15%
Explanation:
Cost of equity (Re) = 14.06% or 0.1406
cost of preferred stock (Rp) = 7/65 = 0.10769
cost of bonds (Rb) = 7.5% or 0.075
outstanding shares = 2.5 million shares x $42 = $105 million
bonds outstanding = $1,000 x 80,000 bonds = $80 million
preferred stock = $65 x 750,000 = $48.75 million
corporate tax rate = 38% or 0.38
total market value of equity + debt (in millions) = $105 + $48.75 + $80 = $233.75
WACC = [(outstanding shares / total market value) x Re] + [(preferred stock / total market value) x Rp] + {[(bonds outstanding / total market value) x Rb] x (1 - tax rate)}
WACC = [($105m / $233.75m) x 0.1406] + [($48.75m / $233.75m) x 0.10769] + {[($80m / $233.75m) x 0.075] x (1 - 0.38)}
WACC = 0.06316 + 0.02246 + 0.01591 = 0.10153 or 10.15%
Answer:
d. 16% - buy
Explanation:
R = (D1 / P0) + g
Where, R=Expected Return, P0 = Current Market Price = $40, D1=Expected Dividend=$, g = Expected Growth Rate = 11% = 0.11
Expected Return = R = ($2/$40) + 11%
R = 0.05 + 0.11
R = 0.16
R = 16%
Expected Return is higher than the required return of 12%. Hence, it should be bought (it is expected to give higher return than required)
