Answer:
4/11 and 6/15 dressers.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is the ability of a country to produce more of a product given the same resources than another country per unit time. It also applies when a country is able to produce same amount of goods with another country given less inputs.
So a country that produces more goods uses a more efficient process to get more output.
In this scenario a worker in Peru can produce 11 lamps or 4 dressers in a day and a worker in Canada can produce 15 lamps or 6 dressers in a day. Canada has absolute advantage in producing lamps and dressers, so importing these items will not be beneficial.
To get a balance where both countries will benefit a lamp will have to go for a ratio of each countrie's product to the opportunity cost.
That is for Peru to produce 4 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 11 lamps. So the ratio is 4/11.
Also for Canada to produce 6 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 15 lamps. So the ratio is 6/15.
Lamp should trade for between 4/11 to 6/15 dressers for both countries to benefit.
I think the answer to this is A.
Hope this helped.

Answer:
a. 10.14%
Explanation:
WACC = wE*rE + wP*rP + wD*rD(1-tax) whereby;
w= weight of...
r = cost of..
Find the market values;
Common equity(E) = 5,000,000* 8 = 40,000,000
Preferred stock(P) = 10,000,000
Debt (D) = 100,000 *1000 *0.96 = 96,000,000
Total value = 146,000,000
Therefore;
wE= 0.2740
wP = 0.0685
wD = 0.6575
Cost of capital;
rE = 19% or 0.19
rP = 15% or 0.15
rD = 9% or 0.09
WACC = (0.2740*0.19) + (0.0685 * 0.15) + [0.6575*0.09(1-0.34)]
WACC = 0.0521 + 0.0103 + 0.0391
WACC = 0.1015 or about 10.14%

Explanation:
That depens of the red tape, if there is one, Mike can claim rigths over the good depending on the negotiation, but if there is no a signed deal it is impossible to claim according to the law.
