Answer:

The answer is b. 9.26%

Explanation:

The capital structure of a company consists mainly of debt and equity. In this question, preferred stock (a mixture of debt and equity), is introduced to the capital structure. The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is a calculation that is carried out to evaluate the profitability of a company by investors or creditors. It depicts the ability of a company to generate cash flows needed to pay debt or distribute returns to their shareholders. The management of a company can also use this calculation to determine how purchasing assets or embarking on a project financed by debt or equity will impact the profitability of a company or its share price.

The calculation of WACC is carried out as follows:

E/V*Re + D/V*Rd *(1-T) where:

  • E is market value of equity
  • D is the market value of debt
  • Re is the cost of equity
  • Rd is the cost of debt
  • V: is the total market value of financing, that is E + D
  • E/V: percentage of financing that is from equity
  • T: corporate tax rate
  • D/V: percentage of financing that is from debt

From this formula, the computation of WACC is conducted as follows:

The cost of equity: 0.45 * 12.75% = 5.7375%

The cost of debt: 0.4 * 6.00% = 2.4%

The cost of preferred: 0.15 * 7.50% = 1.125%

WACC = 5.7375% + 2.4% + 1.125% = 9.2625%

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: 97.99

Explanation:

The one-year forward rate that an investor would be indifferent between the U.S. and Japanese investments will be:

= Spot rate × (1 + Japanese rate / 1 + U.S rate)

= 101 × (1 + 1% / 1 + 4.1%)

= 101 × [(1 + 0.01) / (1 + 0.041)]

= 101 × (1.01/1.041)

= 101 × 0.9702209

= 97.99

Answer:

Free-enterprise; government.

Explanation:

An economy is a function of how money, means of production and resources (raw materials) are carefully used to facilitate the demands and supply of goods and services to meet the unending needs or requirements of the consumers.

Basically, there are four (4) main types of economy and these are;

I. Mixed economy.

II. Command economy.

III. Traditional economy.

IV. Free-enterprise economy.

A free-enterprise system also referred to as capitalism or free market can be defined as a type of economy in which prices, products and services are being determined by the market rather than the government. Thus, a free-enterprise system is devoid (free) of government regulations, interference or control because the market (enterprises) are the ones who are saddled with the responsibility of determining the market forces.

Simply stated, a free-enterprise system is a type of economy that is completely driven by demand and supply of goods and services.

Hence, in a free-enterprise system, supply and demand forces affect the production and consumption decisions. There is little to no government control in such a system.
