Answer:

0.1631 ; 16.31%

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of capital = 14% = 0.14

Debt to equity ratio = 60% = 0.6

Cost of debt = 9% = 0.09

Tax rate = 23% = 0.23

Cost of equity : cost of capital + debt - to - equity ratio * (1 - tax rate) * (cost of capital - cost of debt)

Cost of equity = 0.14 + 0.60 × (1 - 0.23) × (0.14 - .09)

Cost of equity :

0.14 + 0.60 * 0.77 * 0.05

0.14 + 0.0231

= 0.1631 ; 0.1631 * 100% = 16.31%

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: The third option (option C) is the right answer.

Explanation:

The paragraph which has the best coherence is option C. This is because in the case of the third option, it explains that the flow of ideas is constant from one sentence to another.

The first sentence serves as an introduction which talked about the reasons why duties should be divided based on each member’s expertise. The sentences moved smoothly and also logically from one sentence to another sentence. An example is the sentence that “if your company does not have a public relations executive…..”. This should logically proceed the sentence that says that communication ought to be overseen by the director of PR.

This shows that the third option possesses a consistent and logical train of thought as well.

Directions: Something that is valuable is scarce and give utility. Something that isn't value either doesn't give utility, or it
suter [353]

Answer:

Scarcity and Utility

I will explain the concepts of scarcity, value, and utility using my laptop and some writing pens.  I have only one laptop available in my family.  I use it 24-hours daily.  I attach so much value (utility) to the laptop because it is only one.  It is very scare in my household.  On the other hand, I have a packet of writing pens.  Pens are relatively not scare in my household.  If my laptop is missing, I will raise uproar in the house.  Everybody present will answer a tedious query.  But, if one of the pens gets missing, I may not even be aware that it is missing.  At the moment, I do not attach much value (utility) to the writing pens because I have many of them presently .  Writing pens are not scare in my household, as I said earlier.

Using these examples, I have demonstrated the concepts of scarcity, utility, and value.

Explanation:

Therefore, scarcity is defined by the value and the relative availability of a good.  Scarcity is a basic economic problem that shows the gap existing between limited resources and unlimited needs.  Based on the lack experienced with satisfying a need, one has to always choose between alternatives in order to maximize resource allocation and utility.

Utility in Economics refers to the value or satisfaction derivable from the meeting of a human or economic need.  It is initially connected to the concept of scarcity.  But after attaining some level of utility, scarcity temporarily evaporates.  And this is the dividing thin line.  This is why they are mostly used together.  "Something that is valuable is scarce and give utility."  Something that is not highly valuable is not usual scarce and does not give much utility, at least, to an extent.
