Answer:

Cost of equity is 11.2%

WACC is 8.74%

Explanation:

The formula for cost of equity is given below:

Cost of equity=risk free rate+(Beta *risk premium)

risk free rate is the treasury bill rate of 4%

Beta is 0.9

market risk premium is 8%

cost of equity=4%+(0.9*8%)=11.2%

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)

Ke is the cost of equity of 11.2%

Kd is the cost of debt of 5%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

E is the equity weighting of 70% or 0.7

D is the debt weighting of 30% or 0.3

V is the E+D=0.7+0.3=1

WACC=11.20% *0.7/1+(5%*0.3/1*(1-0.4)

WACC=7.84% +0.90% =8.74%

Most people are willing to fib every once in a while to be successful in their work.
rjkz [21]
I believe this is true.
A fib is a white lie, meaning that it is not an important lie, but rather something small and meaningless that won't harm anyone. So if there are no dangers of causing troubles for other people, most people will usually lie in order to get what they want.

Answer:

The correct answer is bivariate correlation, two, direction, strength

Explanation:

The correlation is based on linear association, that is, when the values of one variable increase the values of the other variable can increase or decrease proportionally. For example, height and weight have a positive linear relationship, as height increases the weight increases. If we plot a point with both variables the point cloud will resemble a diagonal if there is a correlation between the variables.
