Answer:

expected return 12.60%

Explanation:

we have to weight the outcomes:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}State&Return&Probability&Weight\\Weak&0.1&0.8&0.08\\Ok&0.18&0.1&0.018\\Great&0.28&0.1&0.028\\Total&&1&0.126\\\end{array}\right]

we multiply the return consiering the probability of occurrency then, we add them to know the expected return o nthe investment which, in this case, is 12.60%

Answer:

A) -0.55

B) The  negativity in the estimated elasticity suggests that for every 1% increase in the price of transport there will be a corresponding 0.55% decrease in  the number of Commuters

Explanation:

Given data:

current fare (P0) = $4

hiked fare (P1)  = $6

change in fare = $2

number of rides before increase ( Q0 ) = 10000

number of rides after increase ( Q1 ) = 8000

change in rides = 2000

A) The estimated elasticity of demand for MRT rides using the midpoint /ARC method

Mid point method = [ ( Q1 - Q0 ) / ( Q1 + Q0 ) ] / [ (P1 - P0 ) / (P1 + P0 ) ]

                              = [ - 2000 / 18000 ]  / [ 2 / 10 ]

                              = - 1000 / 1800 =  - 5 / 9 ( estimated elasticity )

= - 0.55

B) The  negativity in the estimated elasticity suggests that for every 1% increase in the price of transport there will be a corresponding 0.55% decrease in Commuters

1.) What was the point of the opening story about the prevalence of bribery in Iraq?
NemiM [27]

1A) the point behind the opening story being about the prevalence of bribery in Iraq because it not only sets the plot of the audio, but if you read the details below it also goes with the question “Can today’s multinational corporations be a force for social good?” The opening of this helps the listeners to understand how different corporations work and really think about the questions in the details below.

2A) Governments are often less likely or able to confront issues like human trafficking and labor rights because they have not been able to solve cross border issues, if and when they try to work together than cannot come to a reasonable and or actionable agreements, so instead confronting issues such as human trafficking and labor rights they let them be. Corngold believes that only multinational corporations are able solve issues like that of human trafficking and labor rights. She believes this because they  have the resources, the global footprints, and the incent of profits to solve such challenges.

3A) A Corporate idealist are the employees of a particular business that pay remarkably close attention to the financial performance of their companies, and the ethical, environmental consequences as well. (they also pay close attention to the societal consequences to their companies)

4A) The root of the struggle here that could apply to other similar human rights-related ethical issues would be the fatalities dampens human rights such as freedom to life, and to good health. The speaker ultimately worked through the issue by telling the company the particular human rights they are violating, from here getting the number of fatalities from 8 to 0.

#5 is your understanding of business ethics, thin about the question and go from there

you are free to use my answers as examples. Hopes this helps you out

McCall Corporation has a capital structure consisting of 55 percent common equity, 30 percent debt, and 15 percent preferred sto
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

WACC = 12.14%

Explanation:

Cost of debt = 9.5% x (1 - 35%) = 6.175%

Cost of preferred stock = 11.5%

Cost of equity (Re) = {D₁ / [P₀(1 - F)]} + g

Re = {($4.25 x 1.08) / [$65 x (1 - $4.25/$65)]} + 8% = ($4.59 / $60.75) + 8% = 15.56%

WACC = (15.55% x 0.55) + (6.175% x 0.30) + (11.5% x 0.15) = 8.56% + 1.85% + 1.73% = 12.14%
