Homeless: 
10 – t^2 /320 > 0
10 > t^2 /320
3200 > t^2 
t < 40√2 = 56.6 
College students: 
10 – t^2 /160 > 0
10 > t^2 /160
1600 > t^2 
t < 40
Wait time would have to be at least 40 minutes to prevent college students from waiting.

konstantin123 [22]

= 5 - 8 + 3

= 0%

We simply applied the above formulas

mylen [45]

Answer:

they are dependent on situational probabilities

Explanation:

Arturo's decision about which torch to purchase is being made under conditions of ambiguity , because: they are dependent on other factors.

The decision making is not certainty because his decision on which torch to buy is dependent on probabilities neither is it uncertain because we have information on probabilities of what the outcome might be.

Hence the decision making is ambiguous because it is between certain and uncertain and its outcome is dependent on the probabilities of having a discount or not.

Garnet Corporation is considering issuing risk-free debt, or risk-free preferred stock. The tax rate on interest income is 35%,
adell [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) investors wil receive 6% x ( 1-0.35)

= 3.9% risk free debt  after tax.

After  tax  return from risk free  preferred stock earnings must be equal.

to evaluate the cost of capital  fro preferred stock = 3.9%/(1-0.15)

                                                                                    = 4.59%

b) the after-tax debt cost of capital = 6% x (1- 0.40)

= 3.60%.

therefore, 3.60% is cheaper than the 4.59% preffered stoch cost per capital

c)  r* = 1 - [{(1 - 0.40)(1 - 0.15)} / (1 - 0.35)] = 1 - 0.7846 = 0.2154, or 21.54%

Hence, 4.59% x (1 - 0.2154) = 3.60%
