Answer: E) The company expects a constant weighted average cost of capital.

Explanation: The explicit forecast period in most organisations are usually made between five to about fifteen years,this is to ensure that enough timeline is given to effectively capture all the necessary information to do proper forecast.

The only option that is not a desirable feature of the steady state is that. The company expects a constant weighted average cost of capital. All other options are desirable feature because they have positive impact on the business and will make a good forcast.
