Analyze the cost of capital situations of the following company cases, and answer the specific questions that finance professionals need to address. consider the case of turnbull co. turnbull co. has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock, and 36% common equity. it has a before-tax cost of debt of 8.2%, and its cost of preferred stock is 9.3%. if turnbull can raise all of its equity capital from retained earnings, its cost of common equity will be 12.4%. however, if it is necessary to raise new common equity, it will carry a cost of 14.2%. if its current tax rate is 25%, how much higher will turnbull’s weighted average cost of capital (wacc) be if it has to raise additional common equity capital by issuing new common stock instead of raising the funds through retained earnings? (note: round your intermediate calculations to two decimal places.) 0.78%

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.

answer: in the short-run firms will respond by raising the price of turkey.

explanation: initially the long-run equilibrium is at a price of $5 per pound of turkey and a quantity of 50 million pounds per year. now, when webmd claims that a protein found in turkey will increase your expected lifespan by 4 years. the consumers demand for turkey will increase at every price shifting the demand curve to the right from d1 to d2. while, there will be no change in the supply curve in the short-run as it is not possible for producers to adjust supply so quickly. as a result the new equilibrium will occur at a higher price and a higher quantity of turkey.

thus, in the short run firms will respond by increasing the price of turkey, selling more quantity at a higher price and earning economic profits.
