Answer:

a) 18.34%

Explanation:

Real gain = [Real GDP year 2010]/[Real GDP year 2000]

                = [nominal GDP ]/[nominal GDP]

Real GDP gain(2000) = [nominal GDP ]/[nominal GDP]

                                    = $672billion/24

                                    = 28

Real GDP gain(2010) = [nominal GDP ]/[nominal GDP]

                                    = $1,690 billion/51

                                    = 33.14

Real gain = Real GDP gain(2010)/Real GDP gain(2000) - 1

                = 33.14/28 - 1

                = 0.1834

Therefore, The  real gain is 18.34%

iragen [17]

Answer:

b) $10.000

Explanation:

In order to find the total preferred stock dividend we need to have the rate of the dividend, the par value of the preferred stock and the number of preferred stocks. In this question we are given the rate of the dividend of preferred stock which is 5%, we are also given the par value of the preferred stock which is $10 and we are also given the total number of preferred stock which is 20,000.

To find out how much dividend was distributed to preferred shareholders we need to use the formula

Rate of dividend*par value of stock * number of preferred shares

0.05*10*20,000= 10,000

Assume that the risk-free rate is 8 percent, the required rate of return on the market (or an average-risk stock) is 13 percent,
LenKa [72]

Answer:

22.7 %

Explanation:

We can solve two of the problems using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) which is as follows:

Ra= Rf + (Rm-Rf)*B

Where,

Ra= Rate of return on stock

Rm= Rate of return on market

Rf= Risk Free rate

B= Beta coefficient of stock

Now we can move for your problem

Prob1) Ra= .15, Rf= .08, Rm= .13, B= ?

.15=.08+(.13-.08)B

Therefore, beta Coefficient = 1.4              

Prob2: Ra= ?, Rf= .04, Rm= .15, B=1.7

= .04+(.15-.04)*1.7

Therefore, Ra=0.227 = 22.7 %

Extrinsic motivation

 Extrinsic motivation is defined as behavior that is motivated by external factors outside an individual such as rewards, fame, attention or praise. Therefore, if Jack’s motivation for successfully completing a project is a salary raise and more, he is externally motivated. He is motivated to do well largely by the external factor, money, rather than intrinsic factors such as a sense of achievement and pride.
