Answer: Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
The economic efficiency is achieved at a point where demand curve and supply curve intersects each other. This point is known as market equilibrium. The area under the demand curve and above the equilibrium price level is known as consumer surplus.

Answer:
B) 9.1%
Explanation:
Cost of debt is the interest rate paid by a company due to borrowing money; i.e debt from investors.
$185million in debt is the face value of debt that Westford Corporation had and the $26 million dollars of interest expense is the cost of the debt in dollars;
First, find pretax cost of debt ;
Pretax cost of debt = (Interest expense / Face value of debt )*100
= (26,000,000/ 185,000,000 )*100
=0.1405 *100
= 14.05%
Next, use pretax cost of debt to find after-tax cost of debt;
After-tax cost of debt = Pretax cost of debt (1-tax)
= 14.05% *(1-0.35)
= 9.13%
Therefore, Westford's cost of debt capital is 9.1%

The cost of the product available on the market is the amount of the original production and net sales in this estimate.
