Answer: The loan was taken for 265 days.
We arrive at the answer as follows:
First we find the ratio of interest paid to the total loan amount to determine the interest rate:
Interest paid = $1,307
Loan Amount = $45,000
Since the interest rate calculated above is less than the annual interest rate at 4%, we conclude that the loan taken was for a period of less than one year.
We can determine the period for which the loan was taken as follows:
Let 'x' be the time for which the loan was taken.
We need to solve for x in the proportion below
0.04 : 365 :: 0.029044444:x
Solving we get,
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": franchising.
Explanation:
A Franchise is a business where one person, the <em>franchisee</em>, gains access to the proprietary knowledge, processes, and trademarks of a <em>franchisor</em>. In return for a royalty, the franchisee acquires the right to market a product or service under an existing brand name.
The customer is already familiar with the brand, so there is no need to invest additional resources to promote the product.

Answer:
14.35%
Explanation:
Simon Software Co
rs= 12%
D/E = 0.25
rRF= 6%
RPM= 5%
Tax rate = 40%.
We are going to find the firm’s current levered beta by using the CAPM formula which is :
rs = rRF+ RPM
12%= 6% + 5%
= 1.2
We are going to find the firm’s unlevered beta by using the Hamada equation:
=bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
1.2= bU[1 + (0.6)(0.25)]
1.2=(1+0.15)
1.2= 1.15bU
1.2÷1.15
1.0435= bU
We are going to find the new levered beta not the new capital structure using the Hamada equation:
b= bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
= 1.0435[1 + (0.6)(1)]
=1.0435(1+0.6)
=1.0435(1.6)
= 1.6696
Lastly we are going to find the firm’s new cost of equity given its new beta and the CAPM:
rs= rRF+ RPM(b)
Let plug in the formula
= 6% + 5%(1.6696)
= 14.35%
