Answer:

It will take 2.72 years and 32.64 months.

Explanation:

Future value is the sum of principal amount and compounded interest amount invested on a specific rate for a specific period of time.

Use following formula to calculate the time period.

FV = PV x ( 1+ r )^n

FV = Future value = $6,000

PV = Present Value =  $4,000

r = rate of interest = 15% yearly = 15% / 12 = 1.25%

n = time period = ?

$6,000 = $4,000 x ( 1 + 1.25% )^n

$6,000 = $4,000 x ( 1.0125 )^n

$6,000 / $4,000 = ( 1.0125 )^n

1.5 = ( 1.0125 )^n

Log 1.5 = n log 1.0125

n = Log 1.5 / log 1.0125

n = 32.64 months

n = 2.72 years

olganol [36]

Answer:

The share is worth $5.68 today.

Explanation:

The current price of the stock can be calculated using the DDM or dividend discount model. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.

The following is the formula for the price of the stock today,

P0 = D1 / (1+r)  +  D2 / (1+r)^2  + ... +  Dn / (1+r)^n  +  Terminal value / (1+r)^n

The terminal value is the cumulative value of all the future dividends calculated when the dividend growth becomes zero or constant. In case the dividend growth becomes constant, like in this case, the terminal value is calculated as follows,

Terminal value = Dn * (1+g) / r - g

Where,

  • g is the Constant growth rate in dividends

So, the price of this stock today is,

P0 = 0.65 / (1+0.145)  +  0.70 / (1+0.145)^2  +  0.75 / (1+0.145)^3  +  

((0.75 * (1+0.02) / (0.145 - 0.02)) / (1+0.145)^3

P0 = $5.678 rounded off to $5.68

I need help please! <br> what do you think is positive about franchises in general? negative?
mote1985 [20]

It may seem that franchise has many benefits since it allows for a person to open and operate a business without much knowledge of how to run a business and generally franchises are well advertised so not much marketing costs are needed, however negative impacts are much more, since you need to pay lifetime percentages for sales and operating under franchise as well as there is no room for creativity and too much dependence on a big business. Also the funds needed to open a franchise are much higher than same business but operating independently. So negative side is prevailing.

Determinants of market interest rates
ollegr [7]

Answer:

1. Real risk-free rate.

2. Nominal risk free-rate.

3. Inflation premium.

4. Liquidity risk premium.

5. Liquidity risk premium.

6. Maturity risk premium.

Explanation:

Market interest rates can be defined as the amount of interests (money) paid by an individual on deposits and other financial securities or investments. The factors that typically affect the market interest rate known as the determinant of market interest rates are;

1. This is the rate on short-term U.S. Treasury securities, assuming there is no inflation: Real risk-free rate r*

2. It is calculated by adding the inflation premium to r*: Nominal risk free rate.

3. This is the premium added to the real risk-free rate to compensate for a decrease in purchasing power over time: Inflation premium.

4. This is the premium added as a compensation for the risk that an investor will not get paid in full: Liquidity risk premium.

5. This premium is added when a security lacks marketability, because it cannot be bought and sold quickly without losing value: Liquidity risk premium.

6. This is the premium that reflects the risk associated with changes in interest rates for a long-term security: Maturity risk premium.
