Answer:

The stock A is most valuable as the fair value of Stock A is $100 which is more than the fair value of Stock B ( $83.33) and Stock C ($34.28).

Explanation:

to calculate the fair price of the stocks, we will use the DDM or dividend discount model. The DDM bases the value of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.

Let r be the discount rate which is 10%.

a.

The stock is like a perpetuity as it pays a constant dividend after equal intervals of time and for an indefinite period.

The price of this stock can be calculated as,

Price or P0 =  Dividend / r

P0 = 10 / 0.1  = $100

b.

The constant growth model of DDM can be used to calculate the price of this stock as its dividends are growing at a constant rate forever.

P0 = D1 / r - g

Where,

  • D1 is the dividend for the next period
  • r is the cost of equity or discount rate
  • g is the growth rate in dividends

P0 = 5 / (0.1 - 0.04)

P0 = $83.33

c.

The price of this stock can be calculated using the present of dividends.

P0 = 5 / (1+0.1)  +  5 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.1)^2  +  5 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^3  +  

5 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^4  +  5 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^5  +  5 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^6

P0 = $34.28

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: B. $65,000

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

A. $15,000

B. $65,000

C. $150,000

D. $200,000

It should be noted that the corporate liquidations of property are typically treated as either an exchange or a sale and the profit or the loss made will be recognized by the corporation usually based on the liquidating sale of the assets of the corporation.

In certain cases whereby the distributee that is, the individual who is entitled to partake in the share of an estate distribution is a corporation that is in charge of the distributing corporation, this may lead to the distribution not to be taxable.

Due to this, Alvo has a basis of $65,000. The reason is that the land was not sold and therefore Alvo did not get $200,000.

You have your choice of two investment accounts. Investment A is a five-year annuity that features end-of-month $2,500 payments
oee [108]

Answer:

$119,176.06

Explanation:

Calculation for How much would you need to invest in B today

First step is to calculate the Future value of annuity (FVA)

FVA =$2,500 * ({[1 + (.115 / 12)](5 × 12) - 1} / (.115 / 12))

FVA = $201,462.23

Since we have known the FVA Second Step will be to calculate the Present value (PV)

PV = $201,462.23 × e-1 × .105 × 5

PV= $119,176.06

Therefore the amount that you would need to invest in B today will be $119,176.06
