Answer:

WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure can consist of one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is calculated as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity
  • rD * (1 - tax rate) is the after tax cost of debt

We first need to calculate the WACC of the company and then adjust it for the new project.

WACC = 35% * 3.28%  +  65% * 10.4%

WACC = 7.908%

As the new project is less risky and has an adjustment factor of -1.5%, the required rate of return for the new project will be,

WACC - new project = 7.908%  -  1.5%  

WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%

marin [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Gross profit equals net sales minus cost of sales(Net sales- Cost of Sales).

Net sales = $325,000

Cost of Sales = $240,500

Therefore we have;

$325,000 - $240,500

=$84,500

Gross profit ratio is (Gross profit/net sales) x 100%

($84,500 x $325,000) x 100%

26%

Consider the market for 7-eleven slurpees. In a market economy only those consumers who are willing and able to pay for Slurpees
Natalka [10]

Answer:

When we take Slurpees, these are labelled under luxury. This is not the basic need of any human being to drink Slurpees in order to quench his or her thirst. This can't be categorized as a basic, primary or biological need. Water is considered very for for this purpose and we even can't survive biologically without water, whereas, we can very happily without Slurpees. More specifically, we can live definite more happy and healthy without drinking these carbonated drinks which are not good for any human's health, and this facts have been proven by medical science in much finer details. These drinks, sometimes, can kill humans as well, damaging their stomach directly. If this was the basic need, then organizations might have offered it instead of giving employees salary and monetary rewards.

Fill in the blanks to complete the passage regarding the development of illegal markets in response to price ceilings. – are ill
djverab [1.8K]

Black markets are illegal markets that emerge in response to price controls. A few buyers are able to obtain the good at the open-market price; the rest must resort to illegal means. The additional demand is met by underground suppliers selling at much higher prices.

The government does not support the black market or any of their actions with getting items and selling them in other forms. Those who are in demand of a good when they have a hard time in getting it may purchase it illegally at a higher price just so they can receive that good. When there is an exchange of goods in the black market, these items are usually prohibited by the government and therefor illegally being sold.
