I have a finance problem that involves short and long term debt where the proposed company is financing 40million through stockholder equity. I have been told they are looking to employ a specific amount of current assets and fixed assets for the current year. I have also been give the EBIT and next years sales. In addition to this I have been given information regarding short and long term debt and have been asked to find the expected rate of return on the stockholders equity and the net cost of capital. first i do not know what they mean by employ and second I do not know where to begin.
