Mason and Kirsty purchase 30 shares of Apple stock on January 1, 2009 for $72.49 per share. Mason and Kirsty receive $0.36 per s
zmey [24]

Answer:

  • after-tax average annual return = 14.41%
  • after tax dividends per year = $38.88

Explanation:

initial investment = 30 shares x $72.49 per share = $2,174.70

- dividends received per year = 30 shares x $0.36 x 4 (dividends paid every quarter) = $43.20

after tax dividends per year = $43.20 x 90% = $38.88

- long term capital gains = (30 shares x $183 per share) - initial investment =  $5,490 - $2,174.70 = $3,315.30

taxes on long term capital gains = $3,315.30 x 10% = $331.53

To calculate Mason and Kirsty's after tax average annual return (interest rate) we can use the excel spreadsheet =RATE function, where:

  • PV = -2174.70
  • FV = 5490 - 331.53 = 5158.47
  • Pmt = 38.88
  • Nper = 7

=RATE (nper, pmt, pv, [fv])

=RATE (7,38.88,-2174.70,5158.47) = 14.41%

The income elasticity of demand for housing property is exactly 1.40. Due to a recession, you expect incomes to drop by 5% next
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Buy 7% less houses

Explanation:

Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income

Income elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in income

1.40 = percentage change in quantity demanded/ 5%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 1.4 × 5% = 7%

Because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is income elastic. This means quantity demanded is responsive to changes in income. A fall in income would reduce the quantity demanded.
