The amount of track improvement cost that should be allocated to the Western Division is  $3,200,000.

<h3>What amount should be allocated to Western Division?</h3>

The amount that should be allocated to Western Division is a function of the miles travelled on the Western division.

The amount to be allocated to Western Division : (miles travelled on Western division / total miles travelled) x cost of the revision

  • miles travelled on Western division = 800,000 miles
  • total miles travelled = 1,200,000 + 800,000 = 2,000,000 miles

The amount to be allocated to Western Division : (800,000 / 2,000,000) x 8,000,000  = $3,200,000

You are a U.S.-based treasurer with $1,000,000 to invest. The dollar-euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00 and the dolla
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is (B) Buy euro at $1.50/€, buy £ at €1.25/£, sell £ at $2/£

Explanation:

The dollar- euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00

the dollar-pound exchange rate is quoted at $2.00 = £1.00

To calculate the actual cross rate we use; S(euro divided by pounds) =  S(dollar/pounds) ÷ S(dollar/euro).

Using symbols to denote this, we have S(€/£) = S($/£) / S($/€)

S(€/£) = S(2/1) ÷ S(1.50/1)

= (2 / 1.5)

= €1.33.

Consequently, from this result we now know that the euro is undervalued with respect to pounds under the cross rate being offered by the bank. This implies that you should first buy the euro, convert to pounds, and eventually convert back to dollars, this would enable you make money as an investor.

Villalpando Winery wants to raise ​$35 million from the sale of preferred stock. If the winery wants to sell one million shares
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

(a) $4.2

(b) $5.6

(c) $2.8

(d) $2.45

(e) $2.1

(f) $1.05

Explanation:

Given that,

Total amount of capital raised from the sale of preferred stock = $35 million

Number of shares = 1 million

Price per share = Total capital raised ÷ Number of shares

                          =  $35 million ÷ 1 million

                          = $35 per share

(a) If a Expected rate of return = 12 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.12

                            = $4.2

(b) If a Expected rate of return = 16 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.16

                            = $5.6

(c) If a Expected rate of return = 8 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.08

                            = $2.8

(d) If a Expected rate of return = 7 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.07

                            = $2.45

(e) If a Expected rate of return = 6 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.06

                            = $2.1

(f) If a Expected rate of return = 3 percent

Annual dividend = Price per share × Expected Rate of return

                            = $35 per share × 0.03

                            = $1.05

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

a. An individual sells her house on her own.  

         GDP is not affected.

b. An individual sells his house through a broker.

         GDP is not affected.  

c. Government increases Social Security payments.  

          GDP is not affected.

d. Stock prices rise by 20 percent.

   GDP will increase.

Explanation:

Selling a house by an individual does not affect the Gross Domestic Product of a Country.  

Selling a house by a broker will also not affect the Gross Domestic Product of a Country.

When a Government increases the social security payments, this result in transfer of money from government to social security account but it does not generate any goods are services in the country.

When the stock prices increases in the country, there is more likely that the individuals will invest in the stocks. So investments will increase and thus GDP will rise.
