Answer:

The correct anwer is B. real-options perspective.

Explanation:

They are known as Real Options to the possibilities that some projects have to introduce, in the future, modifications in productive investments thus increasing their value. In practice, managers often refer to these options as intangibles.

The classic models of valuation of investment projects based on the discount of cash flows (NPV, IRR), do not incorporate in the project valuation the possibility of introducing modifications, so that the total value of the project is increased. Therefore, the non-consideration of these modification options may undervalue investment projects by not considering aspects that may be strategic for the company and cause it to discard projects that it should undertake.

The existence of Real Options increases the value of an investment project. In this way, the value of the total project can be calculated as the value of the project without the option (NPV) plus the value of the option.

Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 6.45%

Explanation:

In computing the after tax cost of debt, the starting point would be to ascertain the pre-tax cost of debt-yield to maturity-before applying the tax.

The yield to maturity can be calculated using the rate formula in excel ,given as :=rate( nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the nuer of coupon interest the bond would pay which is 20

pmt is the annual payment of the bond which is 13%*$1000=$130

pv is the current price of the bond $1,181.96

fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000

=rate(20,130,-1181.96,1000)

rate=10.75%

Pretax cost of debt is 10.75%

After tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-tax rate)

tax rate is 40%=0.4

                                  =10.75%*(1-0.4)

                                   =6.45%

The total Assets Increased by $250,000 i.e (5,000 × $25) as it increased the cash balance

Total Stockholders Equity = Increased by $250,000 as it increased the overall equity

Net Income = No Change.

2. In case of sale of 10,000 shares

The total Assets Increased by $370,000 i.e (10,000 × $37) as it increased the cash balance

Total Liabilities = No Change

Total Stockholders Equity = Increased by $370,000 as it increased the overall equity

Net Income = No Change.

3. In case of  Purchased 20,000 of Treasury Stock

The Total Assets Decreased by $900,000 i.e (20,000 × $45) as it reduced the cash balance

A business school would like to know that whether the average number of years of work experience of MBA applicants is less than
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The test statistic t of the sample is -0.804.

There is sufficient evidence to ascertain that the average number of years of work experience of MBA applicants is less than 3 years.

Explanation:

Null hypothesis: The average number of years of work experience of MBA applicants is 3 years.

Alternate hypothesis: The average number of yet of work experience of MBA applicants is less than 3 years.

Test statistic (t) = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ sd/√n

sample mean = 2.57

population mean = 3

sd = 3.67

n = 47

t = (2.57 - 3) ÷ 3.67/√47 = -0.43 ÷ 0.535 = -0.804

Assuming a 5% significance level

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 47 - 1 = 46

The critical value corresponding to 46 degrees of freedom and 5% significance level is 2.013.

Conclusion:

Reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic -0.804 is less than the critical value 2.013.

The years of work experience of MBA applicants is less than 3.
