Answer:

A. 12.1%

B. 8.9%

Explanation:

a. Calculation for What is the company's new cost of equity

Using this formula

New cost of equity=Cost of capital+[(Cost of capital- Debt interest rate ) *(Debt-equity ratio)*(1)]

Let plug in the formula

New cost of equity=[0.089+[(0.089-0.057)*(1)*1]

New cost of equity=[0.089+0.032*(1)*1]

New cost of equity=[0.121*(1)*1]

New cost of equity=0.121*100

New cost of equity=12.1%

Therefore the company's new cost of equity will be 12.1%

b. Calculation for What is its new WACC

Particular Weight Cost Weighted cost

Equity 0.5000 *12.1% = 0.0605

Debt 0.5000 * 5.7% =0.0285

WACC =0.089*100

WACC =8.9%

(0.0605+0.0285)

Therefore the new WACC will be 8.9%

A school band performs a spring concert for a crowd of 600 people. the revenue for the concert is $3150. there are 150 more adul
Alla [95]
In this item, we let the number of tickets sold to the adults as x. With this, we can let the number of tickets sold to students with y. 

In this item, we are given that the sum of the number of students and adults is equal to 600. Further, we are also given that the difference is 150. The system of linear equation that would allow us to solve this item is,

               x + y = 600
               x - y = 150

Adding up the two equations will give us,
              2x = 750
Dividing by 2,
              x = 375

Substituting this value to the first equation,
          375 + y = 600
                 y = 225

Therefore, there are 375 and 225 number of tickets sold to adults and students, respectively.

eduard

Answer: 10 years to call

Explanation:

Maturity period = 25 years

Coupon rate = 7%

6.25% basis is,

  • Callable in 10 years at 103
  • Callable in 15 years at 102
  • Callable in 20 years at par

This bond is considered as premium bond. Therefore, in case of premium bonds, Yield to call will be lower than the yield to maturity. Here, the question is which call date should be utilized. According to the rule of thumb, it states that always use the term that is nearest to the whole call date.

Hence, on the customer's confirmation, the dollar price quoted must be based on 10 years to call.
