Answer:
20.1%
Explanation:
In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:
<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>
Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>
Putting all the number together, we have:
Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%
<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>
Answer:
A positive balance of trade
Explanation:
The theory of mercantilism states that a country’s power depends mainly on its wealth. During the Age of Exploration, this meant that the prosperity of a nation should depend on a large supply of bullion (silver and gold) and a positive balance of trade. A positive balance of trade implies that exports should exceed imports. There were tariffs on imports. This discouraged importation.
Mercantilism was commonly practised in Europe within the 16th to 18th century.

Answer:
73,450 COGS
Explanation:
From the beginning inventory we add up purchase and freight cost and subtract the return made to the suplier and discount and allowance granted.
This will be the total cost available for sale.
Then we subtract the ending inventory to get the COGS
27,000 beginning inventory
+ 78,000 purchases
+ 350 freight-in
- 3,900 return and allowance
<u>- 6,000 </u>discount
95,450 good available for sale
<u>- 22,000 </u>ending inventory
73,450 COGS
The sales return impact the sales revenue not the COGS
