Complete Question:

Tattletale News Corp. has been growing at a rate of 20% per year, and you expect this growth rate in earnings and dividends to continue for another 3 years.

a. If the last dividend paid was $10, what will the next dividend be? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Dividend $

b. If the discount rate is 21% and the steady growth rate after 3 years is 2%, what should the stock price be today? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Stock price $

Answer:

Requirement A. $12 per share

Requirement B. $44.14 per share

Explanation:

Requirement A.

The next dividend can be calculated using the following equation:

Next Dividend = D0 * (1 + g)

Here

D0 is the current dividend which is $10 and g is the Growth Rate which is 20% for the first three years

By putting values, we have:

Next Dividend = $10 * (1 + 20%)

= $12 per share

Requirement B.

Year Dividend Growth Rate New Dividend

1 10 20% 12

2 12 20% 14.40

3 14.4 20% 17.28

4 17.28 2% 17.63

Stock Price = $17.63 * (1 + 2%) / (21% - 2%) = $94.62

The above stock price calculated is the value of stock at the end of year 4. To discount it back to year zero, we will discount it by 21%.

Stock price at year0 = $94.62 / (1 + 21%)^4 = $44.14 per share

Answer:

Total explicit cost = $39,000

Implicit cost = $40,420

Accounting profit = $108,600

Economic profit = $68,180

Explanation:

Total explicit costs will be the total amount spent.

Therefore explicit costs =

Rent + office supplies + office staff + telephone expenses

Explicit costs = 10000 + 1000 + 24000 + 4000 = $39,000

Implicit costs= 40000 + (6000 * 0.07) =$40,420

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Total explicit costs

Accounting profit = $147,600 - $39,000 = $108,000

Economic profit = Total revenue - Total opportunity cost.

(Where total opportunity cost= explicit cost + implicit cost)

Therefore economic profits =

$147,600 - ($39,000+$40,420)

= $68,180.

Therefore,

Total explicit cost = $39,000

Implicit cost = $40,420

Accounting profit = $108,600

Economic profit = $68,180

Dan owns an autographed copy of a brittany spears cd that he values at $100. if he sells the cd at the garage sale he's planning

Delvig [45]

The complete question is as follows:

Dan owns an autographed copy of a Brittany Spears CD that he values at $100. If he sells the CD at the garage sale he’s planning to hold in a few weeks, it will be sold to a buyer with a reservation price of $175. If he sells it on eBay, it will be sold to a buyer with a reservation price of $500. eBay will charge Dan $50 to auction the CD, which just covers eBay’s opportunity cost of running the auction. Relative to selling the CD at his garage sale, auctioning the CD on eBay will lead:

A. to no change in total economic surplus.

B. total economic surplus to increase by $500.

C. total economic surplus to increase by $275.

D. total economic surplus to increase by $100.

Answer: C - Total economic surplus to increase by $275.

In this question, we only need to consider producers' surplus since we're considering the various options for Dan to sell his CD.

We calculate Producer's Surplus as follows:

$Producer's surplus = Market Selling Price - Economic Cost.$

Economic costs not only refers to explicit costs like cost of the CD, but also includes opportunity costs. Since we need to calculate producer's surplus when Dan sells on Ebay, we need to consider the following costs:

Value of the CD = $100

Ebay's opportunity cost that Dan will have to bear = $50

$Profit Dan would've received in garage sale = $75 ($175 - $100)$

Among the three expenses listed above, the profit Dan would've got in the garage sale is considered the implicit cost or opportunity cost.

Substituting the values we have in the equation above, we get,

$Producer's Surplus = 500 - (100+50+75)$

$Producer's Surplus = 275$

ki77a [65]

Answer:

cost of the building = $183,331.14

Explanation:

we have to calculate the present value of all the future annual payments using the 11% discount rate:

$37,000 x 2.4437 (PVIFA, 11%, 3 periods) = $90,416.90

($52,000 x 2.4437) / (1 + 11%)³ = $92,914.24

total present value = $183,331.14
