Answer:

Markung Cost of Equity:

For this you should use the Capital Asset Pricing Model:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - Risk free rate)

= 5% + 1.50 * (6.5% - 5%)

= 7.25%

Total capital budget:

They will only pick projects with a rate of return that is higher than 12.55%:

= Project W + Project Y + Project Z

= 22,450 + 19,235 + 17,875

= $59,560

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

$6,021

Current Liabilities = Current Assets - Net Working Capital

= $2,485 - $1,005

= $1,480

Total Liabilities = Long-Term Debt + Current Liabilities

= $4,541 + $1,480

= $6,021
