Answer:

10.45%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the cost of debt

B/S = 1.57 − 1

B/S = .57

.156 = .14 + .57(1 −.21)(.14 − RB)

.156 = .14 + .57(.79)(.14 − RB)

RB = .1045*100

RB= 10.45%

Therefore the cost of debt is 10.45%

vredina [299]

Answer:

My best advice for the spouse would be to designate herself as the new account owner, and since she is 62, she can start taking regular distributions from it. Any distributions that she takes will be taxed as ordinary income (the same rule would have applied to the late husband).

Explanation:

If she had her own IRA account (which is doubtful since she doesn't work), she could also roll over her late spouse's balance into her own account.

The wife's third option would be to treat herself as a beneficiary, not the owner or spouse, but that would only complicate things and result in higher costs.

What is the difference between an increase in demand and an increase in quantity demanded?.
Setler [38]

Answer:

Quantity Demanded is a shift up/down a demand curve

Increase in Demand is a shift in the curve itself.

Explanation:

There will be an increase in Quantity Demanded when price goes down. There is a Quantity Demand change when there is a price change. (QD goes up when Price goes down, QD goes down when price goes up)

An increase in demand is when one of the shifters of demand change. So for example, if number of consumers (one of the shifters) increase, the demand curve increases, and shifts right, meaning more quantity at each pricepoint.
