Explanation:
The standard deviation for the call time is 50 minutes while the average call duration is 25 minutes. The caller has to wait for sometime before the agent answers it because they have 4 agents who take up the calls from the clients.

t = ( Ф * standard deviation + average call duration * standard deviation )
Solving the equation we get 18 minutes.

Corn chips and potato chips, both are substitute goods and thus, affect each others demand by a small changes in various factors.
In this question, a good weather increases the harvesting of corn which increases the supply of corn chips.

return is 10% of $100(par value), i.e $10 per share
cost of preferred stock =$10/$98=10.2%
Note that preferred is not tax deductible like debt financing , hence the rate of tax given is not considered in determining the cost of preferred stock.
