Which of the following statements is correct? a. suppose some of a publicly-traded firm's stockholders are not diversified; they hold only the one firm's stock. in this case, the capm approach will result in an estimated cost of equity that is too low in the sense that if it is used in capital budgeting, projects will be accepted that will reduce the firm's intrinsic value. b. the cost of capital used to evaluate a project should be the cost of the specific type of financing used to fund that project, i.e., it is the after-tax cost of debt if debt is to be used to finance the project or the cost of equity if the project will be financed with equity. c. the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach is the most sophisticated and objective method for estimating a firm's cost of equity capital. d. the cost of equity is generally harder to measure than the cost of debt because there is no stated, contractual cost number on which to base the cost of equity. e. the after-tax cost of debt that should be used as the component cost when calculating the wacc is the average after-tax cost of all the firm's outstanding debt.

Errors in estimating job costs. a construction company employs three sales engineers. engineers 1,2, and 3 estimated the costs of 30%, 20% and 50%, respectively, of all jobs bid on by the company. for i=1,2,3, define ei to be the event that a job is estimated by engineer i. the following probabilities describe the rates at which engineers make serious errors in estimating costs: a) if a particular bid results in a serious error in estimating job cost, what is the probability that the error was made by engineer 1? b) if a particular bid results in a serious error in estimating job cost, what is the probability that the error was made by engineer 2? c) if a particular bid results in a serious error in estimating job cost, what is the probability that the error was made by engineer 3?

Which of the following statements is correct? select one: a. the cost of capital used to evaluate a project should be the cost of the specific type of financing used to fund that project. b. the cost of debt used to calculate the weighted average cost of capital is based on an average of the cost of debt already issued by the firm and the cost of new debt. c. one problem with the capm approach to estimating the cost of equity capital is that if a firm's stockholders are, in fact, not well diversified, beta might be a poor measure of the firm's true investment risk. d. the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach is the most sophisticated and objective method of estimating a firm's cost of equity capital. e. the cost of equity capital is generally easier to measure than the cost of debt, which varies daily with interest rates, or the cost of preferred stock that is issued infrequently.
