Answer:

No, the debt is not manageable because interest payments equal $96 million per year.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

1. Increase in number of orchards

2. Increase in housing prices

Explanation:

1. What effect is the new diet likely to have on the number of apple orchards within 100 miles of New York City?

There is going to be increased demand for apples due to this new diet and this increase in demand is going to bring about a hike in the price for apples. This price increase would make business to be viable for these apple farmers. More people would want to own orchards just to make money out of the boom in apples. Because apple farming now seems to be more profitable than other activities. <u><em>So this would cause the number of apple orchards that are within 100 miles of new york city to increase.</em></u>

2.  What effect is the diet likely to have on housing prices in New York City?

  • There would be an increase in housing prices in New york city as farmers would rather be planting apples on these lands instead of sellng them to developers for building houses. There would be a decrease in the supply of housing in New york.

Countess Corp. is expected to pay an annual dividend of $5.29 on its common stock in one year. The current stock price is $79.83
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

10.03%

Explanation:

Using the dividend discount formula, find the cost of equity; r

r = \frac{D1}{P0} +g

whereby,

D1 = Next year's dividend = 5.29

P0 = Current price of the stock = 79.83

g = growth rate of dividends = 3.40% or 0.034 as a decimal

Next, plug in the numbers to the formula above;

r = \frac{5.29}{79.83} +0.034\\ \\ r =0.06627 + 0.034\\ \\ =0.10027

As a percentage, r = 10.03%

Therefore, the company's cost of equity is 10.03%
