A mass weighing 4 N is attached to a spring whose constant is 2 N/m. The medium offers a damping force that is numerically equal to the instantaneous velocity. The mass is initially released from a point 1 m above the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 6 m/s. Determine the time at which the mass passes through the equilibrium position. (Use

g = 9.8 m/s2

for the acceleration due to gravity.)

Question 4 0.00%
Refer to Questions 2 and 3. The land for the factory will cost $270,000 .
The factory will cost $5,930,000 to build and construction will take two
years with construction costs payable in equal installments at the start of each
year. The factory will operate for 20 years; however, at the end of the fifth, tenth,
and fifteenth year of operation, refurbishment costs will be $930,000 .
At the end of its 20 year lifespan, the land can be resold for $290,000 .
There is a 70% probability that the factory's net operating cash flows will be
$790,037 ; however, there is a 30% chance that net cash flows will only be
$526,068 . You may assume that net operating cash flows flow at the end of
each year.

12 -0.37 -0.70
Question 3 0.00
Refer to Question 2. Now that Anna has determined an appropriate rate
of return for J Corp.'s stock, she must calculate the firm's Weighted Average
Cost of Capital (WACC). There are currently 51.5 Million
J Corp. common shares outstanding. Each share is currently priced at
$7.69 . As well, the firm has 5,000 bonds outstanding and each
bond has a face value of $10,000, a yield to maturity of 3.59% and a
quoted price of $10,159.30 . J Corp.'s tax rate is 30%.
J Corp. has no preferred shares outstanding.
What is J Corp.'s WACC? %
