Ke 13% according to CAPM

Explanation:

We calculate the cost of equity using the CAPM

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free 0.05

market rate

premium market = (market rate - risk free)= 0.08

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1

<u>We have to use the beta of the firm. </u>

The beta of a comparable firm is used when we lack information for our own firm.

Answer:

Fixed cost= $50,000

Explanation:

The high low method is the process by which highest level of activity ND lowest level of activity are comapred along with total cost at each level. Fixed and variable cost can be calculated using equations.

Variable cost= (Highest activity cost- Lowest activity cost)/(Highest activity unit- Lowest activity unit)

Variable cost= (110,000-87,500)/ (4,000-2,500)

Variable cost= 22,500/ 1,500= $15 per unit

Fixed cost= High activity cost- (Variable cost* High activity units)

Fixed cost= 110,000- (15*4,000)

Fixed cost= 110,000- 60,000

Fixed cost= $50,000

= Tax benefit in 20% - Tax benefit in 40%

= $70,000 - $42,000

= $28,000

The other information which is given in the question is irrelevant. So, it is not been considered in the computation part. Hence, it is ignored.

We took the higher value between $42,000 and $14,000.
