Answer:

13.61 %

Explanation:

We have these information to answer the question

Risk free rate = 5.25

Beta = 0.88

Future return on market = 14.75

The formula for required rate of return

= Risk free rate + [ Beta * (future return on market - risk free rate)]

= 5.25 + [0.88(14.75-4.62)]

= 5.25 + (12.98-4.62)

= 5.25 + 8.36

= 13.61%

Therefore the firm's required rate of return = 13.61 %

Thank you!

Besides the u.s. dollar, what is the only major currency to feature bills all of the same size?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Canadian dollar - Bills are often differentiated by size for the visually impaired. Larger denominations in Australia, for instance, are both taller and wider with strong contrasting colors. Euros also follow this logic, while larger notes – like the €200 and €500 – feature tactile marks too. The U.S. and Canadian dollars are currently the only major currencies with same-size notes. The Canadian dollar, however, features tactile marks on the upper righthand corner of bills, and the notes are also different colors to aid the visually impaired. While most other countries are ahead of the U.S. in making their currencies more accessible for the visually impaired, that may soon change with a new proposed $10 bill that would be the first U.S. dollar to feature tactile markings.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

a. Increase the direct costs of the state's debt.

Explanation:

When a bond's rating is downgraded is a signal to the investors that investing in the bond now is riskier than it was prior to the rating downgrade, hence, a perceived higher risk using the risk/return relationship means that the bond issue would have to offer a higher return to entice the investors to invest in the bonds.

As a result, the higher required rate of return translates into a higher direct cost of the state's debt since their interest rate offered has increased
