Answer the next 3 questions based on this information

Despite having a near-monopolistic market position, poor management and operational practices have left the Nautical Boating Network Corporation (NBN Co for short) significantly underfunded and needing to raise more capital. Because of its monopolistic position, debt holders are willing to lend NBN an additional $100 million, at a 1% premium to their current before-tax cost of debt of 4%. (This cost of debt of 5% will apply to all company debts after the debt raising). Even with its questionable management team, the additional debt is not expected to increase the risk of financial distress for NBN. The current market value of NBN’s assets are $300 million and the current Debt to Equity ratio is 0.5. NBN has a current cost of equity of 8% and is subject to a 30% corporate tax rate.

What is NBN’s current before-tax WACC?

6.67%

7.00%

6.00%

6.50%

If NBN’s unlevered cost of equity is currently 7.2%, what will be the new cost of equity after the debt raising?

12.00%

10.25%

11.00%

9.40%

If NBN’s cost of equity after the debt raising is 10%, what will be the after-tax WACC after the debt raising?

6.75%

5.81%

Case Vignette: Which Trauma based disorder (Posttramatic stress disorder (PTSD), Acute stres disorder (ASD) or adjusment disorder is Bethany and Charles each suffering from and why? Dignosis Bethany and Charles and use symptoms from the case vignette (story below) to supportthe dignosis.

Bethany Pinsky, age 23, has gone to a theater to see the local premiere of a big-budget movie. As she settles into her seat, waiting for the show to begin, a young man in a ski mask suddenly appeared in front of the screen. Brandishing an assault rifle, he fired directly into the audience. She saw many people get shot, including the woman sitting next to her. People all around began screening, and there was a confused stampede for the exit door. Terrified, she somehow fought her way to the exit and escaped, uninjured, to the parking lot, where police cars were just arriving.

Charles Quigley, age 25, went to the same movie theater at the same time. He too feared for his life. Hiding behind a row of seats, he was able to crawl to the aisle and quickly sprint to the exit.   Although covered in blood, he escaped without physical injury.

Bethany, Two Weeks Later

Bethany comes to see you. She has not recovered 2 weeks later. She feels emotionally constricted, and unable to experience pleasant or positive feelings. She jumps at the slightest sound, she is unable to focus on her work and her sleep has been fitful and marked by traumatic nightmares. She has tried to avoid any reminders of the shooting but nevertheless relentlessly recalls the sounds of gunfire, the screams, and the sticky feel of the blood pouring out of her neighbor's chest in the movie theater. She feels the experience has changed her life forever.

Charles, Two Months Later

Charles comes to see you as he has been having a difficult time sleeping and concentrating. He feels like he wasn't impacted as much as others by the event but continues to think about the shooting. He finds himself sad at times and easily cries. He feels his heart rate increase and becomes slightly nervous at a loud sound. He feels anger towards others who tell him that they understand how he feels. When asked about his job and personal relationships, he states that he has been able to keep his job. However, he is afraid he may get fired soon as his performance at work has been poor due to his inability to concentrate. His girlfriend tries to help him but he feels she can't understand his pain since she wasn't there. She has noticed his low energy and feeling of hopelessness lately and suggested that he see someone.

The manager of a resort hotel stated that the mean guest bill for a weekend is...

The manager of a resort hotel stated that the mean guest bill for a weekend is $600 or less. A member of the hotel's accounting staff noticed that the total charges for guest bills have been increasing in recent months. The accountant will use a sample of future weekend guest bills to test the manager's claim.

(a)

Which form of the hypotheses should be used to test the manager's claim? Explain.

H0: μ ≥ 600

Ha: μ < 600

H0: μ ≤ 600

Ha: μ > 600

H0: μ = 600

Ha: μ ≠ 600

A) The hypotheses H0: μ ≥ 600 and Ha: μ < 600 should be used because the accountant wants to test the manager's claim that the mean guest bill μ is greater than or equal to 600 and find evidence to support μ < 600.

B)The hypotheses H0: μ ≤ 600 and Ha: μ > 600 should be used because the accountant wants to test the manager's claim that the mean guest bill μ is less than or equal to 600 and find evidence to support μ > 600.   

C)The hypotheses H0: μ = 600 and Ha: μ ≠ 600 should be used because the accountant wants to test the manager's claim that the mean guest bill μ is equal to 600 and find evidence to support μ ≠ 600.

(b)

What conclusion is appropriate when

H0

cannot be rejected?

A)We are able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ = 600.

B)We are not able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong.We cannot conclude that μ > 600.    

C) We are not able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We cannot conclude that μ ≠ 600.

D) We are able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ ≤ 600.

E) We are not able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ ≥ 600.

(c)

What conclusion is appropriate when

H0

can be rejected?

A) We are not able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ < 600.

B) We are not able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ > 600.    

C) We are able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ < 600.

D)We are able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ ≠ 600.

E) We are able to conclude that the manager's claim is wrong. We can conclude that μ > 600.
