The rate of return if the price of Telecom stock goes up by 6% during the next year is 8.00%

What is rate of return?

The rate of return on the bullish strategy is the return on the stock minus the interest on the borrowing.

The share price increase of 6% means the total amount invested would increase by 6%

new value of investment=$16000*(1+6%)

new value of investment=$16,960

interest on borrowing=4%*$8000

interest on borrowing=$320

Gain on investment=new value of investment-initial investment-interest on borrowing

Gain on investment=$16,960-$16,000-$320

Gain on investment=$640

rate of return=gain on investment/equity investment

rate of return=$640/$8000

rate of return=8.00%

Being cash payment of dividend

Explanation:

a) 2/10, n/30 means that the buyer is to pay within 30 days but is entitled to 2% discount if the purchase is paid for in 10 days. Since Pina records at net amounts after cash discount

To record this purchase = 63,300 * 0.02 = 1,266

                                        = 63,300 - 1266 = $62,034

b) Since payment was made on 26th, it means the 10 day discount was not utilized hence Pina pays full price for the goods

The Ramirez Company's last dividend was $1.75. Its dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 25% for 2 years, after whi
Greeley [361]

Answer:

option b is correct

current stock price is $42.64

Explanation:

given data

dividend = $1.75

growth rate = 25% for 2 year

growth rate 1 = 6%

required return 2 = 12%

to find out

current stock price

solution

we will find here first stock price after 2 year that is

stock price = cash flow at 2 year end × ( 1+rate ) / ( rate 2 - rate1 )    ..................1

so here  cash flow at 2 year end = 1.75×1.25 = 2.1875

2.1875 × 1.25 = 2.734

stock price = 2.734  × ( 1+ 0.06 ) / ( 0.12 - 0.06 )  

stock price = 48.30

so stock price at 0.12 return

= cash flow at 1 year / ( 1+ rate 2 ) + cash flow at 2 year / ( 1+ rate 2 )² + stock price / ( 1+ rate 2 )²

= 2.1875 / ( 1+ 0.12 ) +  2.734 / ( 1+ 0.12 )² + 48.30 / ( 1+ 0.12 )²

= $42.64

so option b is correct

current stock price is $42.64

Determine if the people in the example have benefited (i.e., are winners) or have been harmed (i.e., are losers) by unexpected i
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Winners

  • 3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

Losers

  • Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.
  • Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.
  • Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.
  • The US federal government which had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Explanation:

When unexpected inflation occurs, the usual plan to by Monetary Institutions of a country is raising the interest rates.

By doing that, they want to stop it or slowly decelerate it.

So that it becomes more expensive to take a loan, the idea is to reduce consumption.

In Economics, it's a bad scenario after all. Few winners. Many losers.

So, let's examine them

Winners

  • 3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

At first, The 3rd National is going to be winning since the value of the debt will rise, depending on the type of contract and an increase in the interest rate will demand corrections on the monthly payments. But on the other hand, the number of default clients and overdue installments will raise for sure.

Losers

  • Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.

Inflation reduces the real buying value of her checks. And her pension can't grow otherwise this will feed the inflation too.

  • Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.

Since his money is not invested then He's not having any earning that might give him some compensation. So his money is even more devalued.

  • Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.

Depending on the contract Joy might be sleepless. Either her monthly payments will become more expensive or She may experience difficulties because of the weekly growing prices.

  • The US federal government had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Certainly, the president and his secretary will have to address the fact that due to inflation and the chosen medicine make the nation's debt up to the sky. They must renegotiate the payment deadlines.
