True, because you don't everyone good at the same thing. For example, if you want to make a car, you don't want everyone to just know how to build doors.
A because capitalism is FREE enterprise and public companies don’t relate to either of them
Answer:
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
Option c is the correct answer
Explanation:
Using the two stage growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula to calculate the price of the stock today is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- g1 is the initial growth rate
- g2 is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2* (1+0.2) / (1+0.1) + 2 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^2 + 2 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^3
+ 2 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^4 + 2 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^5 +
[(2 * (1+0.2)^5 * (1+0.04) / (0.1 - 0.04)) / (1+0.1)^5]
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64

Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the table showing how the trend percents are calculated.
Trend percents, often known as index numbers, can be described as percents that are used for comparing financial data across time to a based year or period. This can be calculated using the following formula:
Trend percents = (Analysis year amount / Base year amount) * 100 ........ (1)
Using equation (1), the following table shows the trend percents computed as follows:
2019 2018 2017 2016 2015
Sales 362 237 192 134 100
Cost of goods sold 365 238 195 135 100
Accounts receivable 254 202 191 114 100
