Answer: When economists say that a good is no -rival in consumption, More than one person can enjoy the good at the same time
A good is excludable if someone can be prevented from using it. A good is rival in consumption if one person's use reduces others' ability to use the same unit of the good. Markets work best for private goods, which are excludable and rival in consumption. Markets do not work well for other types of goods.
Answer:
The Mean return = 0.8*16.5% + 0.2*-11.6%
The Mean return = 0.132 + (-0.0232)
The Mean return = 0.132 - 0.0232
The Mean return = 0.1088
The Mean return = 10.88%
Variance = 0.8*(16.5%-10.88%)^2 + 0.2*(-11.6%-10.88%)^2
Variance = 0.8*(5.62%)^2 + 0.2*(-0.72%)^2
Variance = 0.012634
Answer:
Equals the foreign exchange rate minus the inflation rate.
Explanation:
Nominal rate of interest refers to the interest rate which does not account for rate of inflation.
It is expressed as
Nominal interest rate = Real interest rate + rate of inflation
Real interest rate is considered to be a better measure since it is adjusted for rate of inflation.
Foreign exchange rate refers to exchange rate between two currencies which is based upon inflation and interest rates prevailing in the respective countries.
Answer:
American Explorations current WACC is 9%
Explanation:
The computation of WACC is shown below:
= (Cost of equity × equity percentage) + (after-tax cost of debt × debt percentage)
= (12% × 50%) + (6% × 50%)
= 6% + 3%
= 9%
Since we have to compute only current WACC so we considered the 50-50 ratio. Hence, we ignored 70% cost of debt
WACC shows a relationship between debt, equity and the preferred stock.
