Answer:

Cost of equity = 11.7%

Explanation:

<em>The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.</em>

Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

Rf-risk-free rate,-4%,  β= Beta-1.10, (Rm-Rf) = 7% ,Ke = cost of equity

Using this model,  

Ke=4% + 1.10×7%

= 11.7 %

Cost of equity = 11.7%

iogann1982 [59]

Suppose in studying Climate Change we discover that in one country, deserts are going to be created where formerly there was grasslands and an abundance of water and in another place the coastlines are going to be altered. If you are an American, how do you think a politician is going to respond to such a problem.

Will his/her response be well thought out based on scientific preparedness, or will he (or she) grab onto the first solution suggestion to him/her and try and implement that?

Whatever he/she does, it will cost and everyone will be affected. A starting place is to find out what presidents in the past have done. During the Bush administration (the second Bush), there was an oil crisis. He responded by allocating more acreage to the growing of corn so supplementing oil production. Replaceable resources for non renewable ones. Sounded like a very good solution, but was it? As it turned out, no. He was robbing Peter to pay Paul. Thousands of people suffered (and died) with that decision because food is much more important than solving transportation problems at the expense of food.

The same is true here. If a solution is sought for global warming, politicians have to be well aware of what they are doing. And that has to be studied very carefully.

velikii [3]

Answer:

Option a and b

Option C                

Explanation:

A . In simple words, price control refers to the  limits on the rates that can be paid for good and services produced in a marketplace that are set up and imposed by central govt.

The purpose behind these restrictions may derive from the need to preserve the availability of products even through skills shortages, and to further delay inflation, or, instead, to help ensure a guaranteed minimum income as well for manufacturers of such products or to seek to obtain a decent living wage.

B. In simple words, due to printing of new currency the supply of money ion the  market would increase which will lead to inflation in the economy which will further lead to loss in value of the existing money in hand on the individuals.
