What steps can Janet take to avoid falling prey to
julia-pushkina [17]

The steps that Janet can take to avoid falling prey to deceptive advertising are the following:

  • <em>Do her research</em>
  • <em>Know what she wants</em>
  • <em>Trust her judgement</em>

  • However, if Janet has already fallen prey to deceptive or false advertising, which is illegal, she can file a lawsuit against the company.

  • The lawsuit aims to recover damages from the company for misleading her into making a purchase or payment for goods or services whose advertising was deceptive.

  • It is generally unethical for a company to mouth a deceptive advertising.

Thus, Janet may not only trust online resources or purchase products from one retailer, she should carry out proper research based on what she wants before trusting her judgement.

dalvyx [7]

a.

WACC is calculated as –

WACC = (Weight of common stock X Cost of common stock) + (Weight of preferred stock X Cost of preferred stock) + (Weight of debt X After tax cost of debt)

WACC = (64% X 13.4%) + (9% X 6.4%) + (27% X ((1- 40%)*8.1%))

WACC = 10.46%

b. After tax cost of debt is calculated as –

After tax cost of debt = (1- tax rate) X cost of debt pre-tax

After tax cost of debt = ((1- 40%)*8.1%))

After tax cost of debt = 4.86%
