On the basis of given information, I'll increase my production of nails.
Explanation:
The reason for increase in production of nails are as follow:
- The fact that overall market supply of nails will decrease by 2 % due to exit by the foreign competitors that means my competition will decrease and it will increase the market share for me.

Answer:
16.96%
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 5.8% + 1.8 × (12% - 5.8%)
= 5.8% + 1.8 × 6.2%
= 5.8% + 11.16%
= 16.96%
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called market risk premium
Answer:
The maximum growth rate to my calculations is 8.32%, since it is closer to option E), I´d choose E) 8.37%
Explanation:
Hi, in order to find the growth rate given all the info of the problem, we need to use the following formula.
Where:
g = growth rate
b=retention ratio
R = return on equity
Since R = Earnings / Equity, and our dividend payout ratio (equals to 1 - b)our fromula changes to:
So, everything should look like this:
So, the growth rate is equal to 8.32% but this option is not available, therefore we´ll go for the closest one, that is E) 8.37%.
Best of luck.
