Explanation:

A budget line illustrates the number of goods, consumers are able to buy with lower income. Thus the price of goods and customers income to be spent on goods determine the budget line.

The slope of the budget line measures the opportunity cost of consuming Commodity A forgetting Commodity B. In order to get more of Commodity A, the consumer will have reduce the consumption of Commodity B Forefeiting the opportunity to consume Commodity B is the true opportunity cost of Commodity A and this measured by the slope of the budget line.

Damien McCoy has loaned money to his brother at an interest rate of 5.85 percent. He expects to receive $987, $1,012, $1,062, an
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The answer is: $3,657

Explanation:

To determine the amount of the loan we have to calculate the present value of the future payments discounting the interest rate of 5.85%.

PV loan =   <u>$987   </u>   +   <u>   $1,012   </u>    +     <u>  $1,062   </u>    +      <u>  $1,162   </u>

                  1.0585         1.0585^2            1.0585^3             1.0585^4

PV loan = $932.45 + 903.23 + 895.47 + 925.64

PV loan = $3,656.80

Trendsetters has a cost of equity of 14.6 percent. the market risk premium is 8.4 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.9 percent.
BabaBlast [244]
Given:
<span>cost of equity of 14.6 percent
</span><span>market risk premium is 8.4 percent
</span><span>risk-free rate is 3.9 percent
</span><span>increase company's beta to 1.4 after purchase.

We will use the CAPM or Capital Asset Pricing Model formula to solve the new cost of equity.

</span>

Re = rf + (rm – rf) * β 

Where:

<span>Re = the required rate of return on equity
<span>rf = the risk free rate
</span><span>rm – rf = the market risk premium
</span>β = beta coefficient = unsystematic risk</span><span>

</span>We need to solve for the original beta coefficient using the given cost of equity, market risk premium and risk free rate.

Re = rf + (rm – rf) * β<span> 
14.6% = 3.9% + 8.4% * </span>β
14.6% - 3.9% = 8.4% * β
10.7% / 8.4% = β
1.27 = β
<span>
The initial beta coefficient is 1.27. 

Using the same risk free rate, market risk premium, and a new beta coefficient of 1.4, we need to solve the cost of equity.

</span>Re = 3.9% + 8.4% * 1.4
Re = 3.9% + 11.76%
Re = 15.66% 

The new cost of equity after purchasing a company is 15.66%. It increase from 14.6% by 1.06%.
