I agree, 17.6% seems way too high for this.

I think I calculated something like 16.1% in a practice problem, but I can’t recall the exact details.

I practiced a question like this where the cost of equity was around 15%. I wonder if it’s close to that here.

I’m a bit unsure about the growth rate. Is it 4.5% compounded annually or just a flat rate?

I remember we used the Gordon Growth Model for similar questions. I think the formula is something like (D1/P0) + g.

The item includes determine how and when the serialization process is executed, right? I think that's what option B is referring to. I'll double-check that in my notes to make sure.

Okay, I think I've got this. An l-VPLS is a logical VPLS, which can be associated with multiple B-VPLS, or Bridged VPLS, services. So the answer is A, TRUE.
