Answer:

$5.95

Explanation:

Given that,

Dividend paid in Year 7 = $2 per share

Growth rate of dividend = 2.2%

Required return = 16 percent

Share price is the present value of all future dividends.

Present Value of future dividends at year 6:

= \frac{Dividend\ in\ year\ 7}{Required\ return - Growth\ rate}

= \frac{2}{0.160 - 0.022}

= \frac{2}{0.138}

= $14.49

Present value of dividends (Now):

= Present Value of future dividends at year 6 × (1 + Required return)^{-6}

= $14.49 × (1 + 0.16)^{-6}

= $5.95

Therefore, the current share price is $5.95 if the required return is 16 percent.

Today, most salespeople are well-educated, well-trained professionals who work to build and maintain long-term customer relation
stepladder [879]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

The above is false because sales people are supposed to build and maintain long term relationships with their customers by listening to and assessing their needs and not teaching their customers. Sales people create a concerted effort towards solving those needs experienced by their customers.

A salesperson represent the image of the company he or she is selling for, hence must be professional and well trained because the company gets profit through his interactions with the customers. This means that before the company gets profit, customers must be satisfied because these salespeople act as critical link between the company and its customers.

Gray is a 50% partner in Fabco Partnership. Gray's tax basis in Fabco on January 1, year 4, was $5,000. Fabco made no distributi
arsen [322]

Answer:

$21000

Explanation:

To determine Gray’s tax basis  for a 50% interest in the Fabco Partnership, The interest is increased by the partner’s  distributive share of all partnership items of income and decreased by the partner’s distributive share of all loss and  deduction items.

Gray’s beginning basis = $5,000  

Gray’s 50% distributive share of ordinary  income = 50% × $20000 = $10000

Gray’s 50% tax-exempt income= 50% × $8000 = $4,000 and  

portfolio income = 50% × $4000  = $2,000

Therefore, the ending basis of  Gray’s Fabco partnership interest = $5000 + $10000 + $4000 + $2000 = $21000
