Answer:

Explanation:

The Malthus theory states that population should be controlled because there are no enough resources to please the future needs. This is how it works: in the short-run there is a change in technology that leads to an increase in income. Because people have more income, better life standards, the birth rate increases and exceeds the death rate. In the long-run total income would have to be distributed between more people than before and the economy reaches the equilibrium again, in which the birth rate equals the death rate.

In other words, econmic success becomes a reproductive success.

Pearson Motors has a target capital structure of 30% debt and 70% common equity, with no preferred stock. The yield to maturity

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Cost of common equity is 16.49%

Explanation:

The WACC of weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure of the firm can comprise of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common stock.

For a firm which has only debt and equity, the WACC is calculated as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate) + wE * rE

Where,

w represents the weight of each component
r represents the cost of each component
we multiply the cost of debt (rD) by (1 - tax rate) to calculate the after tax cost of debt

Plugging in the values of the available components, we can calculate the cost of common equity to be,

0.1370 = 0.3 * 0.12 * (1 - 0.4) + 0.7 * rE

0.1370 = 0.0216 + 0.7 * rE

0.1370 - 0.0216 = 0.7 * rE

0.1154 / 0.7 = rE

rE = 0.164857 or 16.4857% rounded off to 16.49%
