Before ending the meeting, John Noble informed Howie that he would be sending out an e-mail to all employees asking for suggesti
Brut [27]

Answer:

a) employees can be motivated by open communication.

Explanation:

The answer is that Howie does not realize that employees can be motivated by open communication because by asking employees suggestions as to how jobs could be restructured to improve productivity, John Noble is trying to have a direct communication allowing employees to express their thoughts which will make them feel as part of the company and valued which will result in them feeling motivated to perform well in their job.

The other options are not right because employees won't be giving their opinions thinking on equity and ways to simplify job tasks are not the only suggestions that employees can provide.

Calculate the firm’s WACC (using 2018 numbers). (You will need to collect information on the long-term debt and common stock equ
tester [92]

Answer:

Before tax cost of debt is 7.12%

After tax cost of debt is 4.27%

Cost of equity is 10%

Explanation:

The before-tax cost of debt can be determined using excel rate formula as found below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of semiannual payments the bond has i.e 20*2=40

pmt is the amount of semiannual payment=$1000*7.5%*6/12=$ 37.50  

pv is the current price =$1000*104%=$1,040.00  

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(40,37.50,-1040,1000)=3.56%

The 3.56% is semiannual yield, hence 7.12% per year (3.56%*2)

After-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-t) where is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

after-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-0.40)=4.27%

Cost of equity is determined using the below CAPM formula:

Ke=Rf+Beta*(Mr-Rf)

Rf is the risk free rate of 4%

Beta is 1.2

Mr is the market return of 9%

Ke=4%+1.2(9%-4%)=10.00%
