Answer:

The time line from minting to the first sale is:

0-192

$15 - $430,000

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r :

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($430,000/$15)1/192 - 1

r = .0549, or 5.49%

The time line from the first sale to the second sale is:

0-35

$430,000 - $4,582,500

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Using the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r:

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($4,582,500/$430,000)1/35 - 1

r = .0699, or 6.99%

The time line from minting to the second sale is:

0-227

$15 - $4,582,500

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r, we get:

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($4,582,500/$15)1/227 - 1

r = .0572, or 5.72%

muminat
Base on my research this type of argument is baseless but it depends on the 100% free enterprise market system. With this system, the government doesn't have regulatory powers to protect the interest of the consumers from the financial institutions. In a situation that without the interest rate modulation, the rate charged on loans could be 40% while the rate paid on savings could be 1%. If this happens the financial institutions will not have to pay FDIC insurance to ensure the solvency of the overall system.

Fama’s Llamas has a weighted average cost of capital of 10.9 percent. The company’s cost of equity is 12 percent, and its pretax
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is calculated as below:

WACC = (D/A) x r_D x (1-t) + (E/A) x r_E , where:

A: Market value of company asset;

D: Market value of company debt;

E: Market value of company equity;

r_D: pre-tax cost of debt;

r_E: cost of equity;

t: tax rate

Rearrange above formula a bit, we get:

WACC = (D/A) x r_D x (1-t) + (1 - D/A) x r_E

Putting all the numbers together, we have:

10.9% = (D/A) x 8.9% x (1 - 38%) + (1 - D/A) x 12%

Solve the equation, we get D/A = 17% or D/E = 0.2

So, target debt−equity ratio is 0.2
