Answer:

WACC = 7.48%

Explanation:

We can calculate the Firm's WACC by using Excel.

Let's assume this is our Excel Blank Sheet.

          A                    B                                  C                    D

1   Particulars        Rate                             Weight          Weighted rate

2   Debt           = 7.75%(1 - 40%)                 0.45               =B2×C2

                        = 4.65%

3   Equity         = (0.65/(19 × (1 - 10%)))+6%

                        = 9.80%                               0.55             = B3×C3

4                     WACC                                   =SUM(D2:D3)

<h3>Output:</h3>

          A                    B                  C                    D

1   Particulars        Rate              Weight          Weighted rate

2   Debt            = 4.65%             45%               2.09%

3   Equity          = 9.80%             55%               5.39%

4                     WACC                                        7.48%

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The interest rate is 0.06%

Explanation:

Step one :

Given data

final amount $1,000

initial principal balance $850

annual interest rate=?

time (in years)=5 years

Step two:

Applying the

Simple interest/Formula

A = P (1 + rt)

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = annual interest rate

t = time (in years)

Plugin our data into the formula We have

1000=850(1+r*5)

1,000=850(1+5r)

Opening bracket we have

1,000=850+4,250r

Colleting like terms we have

1000-850=4250r

250=4,250r

Dividing both sides by 4,250 we have

r=250/4250

r=0.058

Hence the interest rate is 0.06%

STatiana [176]

If the demand for a good falls by less than the supply of the good rises, then the good’s equilibrium price will fall and its equilibrium quantity will rise.
According to the law of demand indicates that as price increases, consumers are willing and able to purchase less so the quantity demanded will fall and cause the downward sloping demand curve. So when price falls, consumers are willing and able to purchase more.
