Explanation:
To formulate the LP model for this problem,
Let,
X1 = Number of beds to produce
X2 = Number of Desks to produce
Our objective function:
Max: 30X1 + 40X2
Constraints:
6X1 + 4X2 ≤ 36 available carpentry hours 4X1 + 8X2 ≤ 40 available vanishing hoursX2 ≤ 8 (demand for X2)X1, X2 ≥0Based on the constraints information as well as the objective function you can then solve using the graphical method.
Compute the weight of common equity that should be used in the firm's WACC calculation if the market value of the firm's debt is $62 million, the market value of the firm's preferred stock is $7 million and the market value of the firm's common equity is $111 million. Enter your answer as a decimal (i.e. 0.54)
Answer:
0.62 or 62 %
Explanation:
Weight of common equity = Market Value of Equity ÷ Total Market Value of Sources of Finance
where,
Market Value of Equity = $111 million
Total Market Value of Sources of Finance = $62 million + $7 million + $111 million = $180 million
therefore,
Weight of common equity = $111 million ÷ $180 million
= 0.62 or 62 %
Conclusion
the weight of common equity that should be 0.62 or 62 %

Marketing managers from two companies agree that competing to offer the lowest prices has been hurting their profit margins, so they agree on the prices they will charge for some of their key products. What illegal pricing behavior is this? O A. Price discrimination O B. Deceptive pricing C. Price fixing O D. Price gouging
Price fixing is the illegal pricing behaviour is this. Hence, option C is correct.
A written, verbal, or conduct-based agreement to raise, lower, maintain, or stabilize prices or price levels is known as price fixing. Antitrust laws typically mandate that each business establish prices and other competitive terms independently, without consulting a rival.
Competitors who agree to raise, cut, or stable prices are said to have engaged in horizontal price fixing. For instance, a horizontal agreement between two rival fast-food establishments selling hamburgers on the sale pricing of cheeseburgers is prohibited by antitrust rules.
Price fixing is an anticompetitive agreement between players on the same side of a market to buy or sell a good, service, or commodity solely at a set price, or to keep the market's dynamics in such a way that the price is kept at a fixed level.
Thus, option C is correct.

Consider an asset that generates $3,000 in 5 years and $5,000 in 1 year; discount rate - 6% (These are uneven cash flows- there is no pattern).
2. Consider an asset that pays $500 per year for 8 years (This is an annuity- it is the same cash flow, evenly spaced, for a finite time (it has an end)).
3. Consider an asset that pays $50 per year starting at the end of year 3 (This is a delayed perpetuity- it is the same cash flow evenly spaced forever, but does not begin until a future date).
Answer:
1. Since the last cash flow occurs at year 5, the timeline ends at 5th year.
2. Since the same cash flow for a finite time of 8 years, the timeline ends at 8th year.
3. The 3 dots at the end of the timeline indicates a perpetuity.
Explanation:
A timeline refers to a line that shows the timing and amount of cash flows. Therefore, we have:
1. Consider an asset that generates $3,000 in 5 years and $5,000 in 1 year; discount rate - 6% (These are uneven cash flows- there is no pattern).
Note: See number 1 in the attached photo for the timeline.
The fact that the last cash flow occurs at year 5 makes the timeline to end at 5th year.
It can also be seen in the timeline that the 6% discount rate is shown in between the previous period and the next.
2. Consider an asset that pays $500 per year for 8 years (This is an annuity- it is the same cash flow, evenly spaced, for a finite time (it has an end)).
Note: See number 2 in the attached photo for the timeline.
The fact that the same cash flow for a finite time of 8 years makes the timeline to end at 8th year.
3. Consider an asset that pays $50 per year starting at the end of year 3 (This is a delayed perpetuity- it is the same cash flow evenly spaced forever, but does not begin until a future date).
Note: See number 3 in the attached photo for the timeline.
It should be noted the 3 dots at the end of the time line indicates a perpetuity.

Debt service expense
Debt service expense is the interest expense incurred to avail the debt services from another entity.
Debt service expense can be calculated using the following formula
Debt service expense = Face value of Bonds x Interest rate x Semiannual fraction
Where
Face value of bonds = $3,500,000
Interest rate = 4%
Semiannual fraction = 6 / 12 = 1/ 2
placing values in the formula
Debt service expense = $3,500,000 x 4% x 1/2
Debt service expense = $70,000
