Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The answer is 11.2%

Explanation:

Cost of acquisition: $16 per share

Annual dividend: $1

The stock increases by $2 every year for 3 years. Therefore, we have:

First year is $16 per share

Second year is $18 per share

Third year is $20 per share.

The arithmetic average annual capital gain will be

($2/$16 + $2/$18 + $2/$20)/3

(0.125 + 0.111 + 0.1) / 3

0.336/3

0.112

Expressed as a percentage:

= 11.2%

Present and future value tables of $1 at 3% are presented below
Molodets [167]

Answer:

B. $228,122.

Explanation:

Number of quarters = 3 * 4 = 12

Quarterly interest rate = 12%/4 = 3%

From the table, the correct discounting factor for the future value (FV) = 1.42576

We then have:

FV = $160,000 * 1.42576 = $228,122

Therefore, the maturity value of the CD is $228,122.
