Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Sale of share = NQOs received × No. of shares × Selling price per share

                      = 10 × 8 × $22

                      = $1,760

Gain realised:

= Sale of share - Basis

= $1,760 - [NQOs received × No. of shares × Selling price per share at $15]

= $1,760 - [10 × 8 × $15]

= $1,760 - $1,200

= $560

Tax paid = Gain realised × preferential rate

               = $560 × 15%

               = $84

In 1 or 2 sentences, define an externality and explain how the government makes companies take responsibility for negative exter
tamaranim1 [39]

In economics an externality is the cost or benefit that affects someone who did not choose this. It is the true cost of a product that can be both positive or negative. Pollution can be an example of this. An educated labor force producing more is a positive example of this. The government rewards positive externality and punishes negative externality. Rewards can be surpluses and taxes can be punishments.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

(E) inflated to make

Explanation:

There is a grammatical error, in the sentence as for the words:

inflated, and making the words inflated to make shall be replaced in order to correct the error.

As the event discussed is related to the past that is already it happened that the bag got inflated to make the passenger who is already terrified think, that the car is on fire.

There is a new innovation to correct the past event, where the inflation of bag is related to making the person terrified, and are not two separate transactions, that shall be reported in different phrases.

The debt has an interest rate of 8.50% (short term) and 10.50% (long term). The expected rate of return on the company's shares
viva [34]

Answer:

Re = 16.02%

Explanation:

current stock price 36 x 7,660,000 = 275,760,000

cost of equity = 17.5%

current short term debt = 141,600,000

cost of short term debt = 8.5%

current long term debt = 210,600,000

cost of long term debt = 10.5%

total financing = 627,960,000

  • equity = 275,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.4391
  • short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
  • long term debt = 210,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.3354

WACC = (0.4391 x 0.175) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.3354 x 0.105 x 0.75) = 0.0768 + 0.0144 + 0.0264 = 0.1176 or 11.76%

under the new structure:

total financing = 627,960,000

  • equity = 325,760,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.5188
  • short term debt = 141,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2255
  • long term debt = 160,600,000 / 627,960,000 = 0.2557

assuming WACC remains unchanged:

0.1176 = (0.5188 x Re) + (0.2255 x 0.085 x 0.75) + (0.2557 x 0.105 x 0.75) = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0144 + 0.0201 = (0.5188 x Re) + 0.0345

0.5188 x Re = 0.1176 - 0.0345 = 0.0831

Re = 0.0831 / 0.5188 = 0.1602 or 16.02%
