    Hi Sir,
    Link Co has been prevented by the competition authorities from buying a competitor, Twist
    Co, on the basis that this prevents a monopoly arising. Link Co has therefore decided to
    expand existing business operations instead and as a result the finance director has
    prepared the following evaluation of a proposed investment project for the company.
    $000
    Present value of sales revenue 6,657
    Present value of variable costs (2,777)
    Present value of contribution 3,880
    Present value of fixed costs (1,569)
    Present value of operating cash flow 2,311
    initial capital investment (1,800)
    Net present value 511
    The project life is expected to be four years and the finance director has used a discount
    rate of 10% in the evaluation. The investment project has no scrap value.
    The finance director is considering financing the investment project by a new issue of debt.

    Which of the following statements relating to debt finance is correct?
    A Link Co can issue long-term debt in the euro currency markets
    B The interest rate which Link Co pays on its new issue of debt will depend on its
    weighted average cost of capital
    C A new issue of loan notes by Link Co will take place in the primary market
    D Link Co will not be able to issue new debt without offering non-current assets
    as security

    why it cant be 1st one ?

    The eurocurrency market is for borrowing money in a currency that is not the currency used in the country where the company is based.

    so there is no where mentioned that it is a euro currency market instead as per question dollar rates are used

    There is no mention of the competitor being in a foreign country (which wouldn’t have to be a Euro country to use the eurocurrency market), then you cannot simply assume that it is. Also, the competition authorities would only be worried about there being a monopoly if the competitor was in the same country.
