Answer:

The stock price is $31.14

Explanation:

The value of Brickhouse stock today is the present values of future cash flows from the stock discounted using the required rate of return of 10.7% as the discount  rate as done below:

Years               cash flows  discount factor                        Present values

1                            $2.85     1/(1+10.7%)^1=0.903342367        $2.57

2                            $2.34    1/(1+10.7%)^2=0.816027432         $1.91

3 & beyond          *$32.67  1/(1+10.7%)^2=0.816027432         $ 26.66  

                                                             total present values= $31.14

* the year 3 and beyond represents the terminal value of the stock,which is computed using the formula below

=D2*(1+g)/r-g

D2 is the year dividend of $2.34

g is the dividend growth rate of 3.3%

r is the required rate of return which 10.7%

terminal value=$2.34*(1+3.3%)/(10.7%-3.3%)

                        =2.41722 /0.074 =$32.67

REY [17]

Answer:

If the company decides to increase its advertising budget, its net profits will  decrease by $200 (= $56,800 - $57,000).

Explanation:

The company is currently selling 5,000 units per month at $150 per unit, and its total variable costs are $90 per unit.

Fixed expenses are $243,000 per month.

Current income statement:

sales revenue =                    $750,000

minus variable costs =         ($450,000)

<u>minus fixed costs =              ($243,000)  </u>

net income =                           $57,000

If the company increases its advertising budget be $11,000 it should sell 180 more units per month, the new income statement would be:

sales revenue =                    $777,000

minus variable costs =         ($466,200)

<u>minus fixed costs =              ($254,000)  </u>

net income =                           $56,800

If the company decides to increase its advertising budget, its net profits will  decrease by $200 (= $56,800 - $57,000).

A title clause in a contract provides exactly what type of title the buyer is expecting to receive from the seller: Group of ans
damaskus [11]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A retention of title clause within a contract of sale essentially means that ownership remains with the supplier, until full payment for the goods has been received. That is the seller of a particular product still holds full custody of his goods until the buyer fully pays for the goods.

Two towns, each with three members, are deciding whether to put on a fireworks display to celebrate the new year. fireworks cost
Burka [1]
1) Town of Bayport:
We have that the residents value the fireworks at a total of 50+100+300=450$. That is the utility they gain. But they would also have to pay 360$ for the fireworks. The total outcome is 450$+(-360$)=90$. Hence, the outcome is positive and the fireworks pass the cost benefit analysis.

If the fireworks' cost is to be split equally, we have that each of the 3 residents has to pay 360/3=120$. Let us now do the cost-benefit analysis for everyone.
Jacques stands to gain 50$ from the fireworks but would have to pay 120$. He will vote against it.
Also, Kyoko will gain 100$ but would have to pay 120$. He will lose utility/money from this so he will vote against.
Musashi on the other hand, would gain 300$ and only pay 120$. He is largely  benefitted by this measure. Only he would

We have that 2 out of the 3 would vote against the fireworks, so that the fireworks will not be bought. The vote does not yield the same answer as the benefit-cost analysis.

2) Town of River Heights:

We have that the total value of the fireworks to the community is 20+140+160=320$. The total value of the fireworks is lower than their cost so their cost benefit analysis yields that they should not be bought.

However, let's see what each resident says. The cost to each resident is 360/3=120$. Rina is against the fireworks since she will only gain 20$. Sean and Yvette are for the fireworks since they gain 140$ and 160$ respectively, which are larger than the cost of the fireworks to each of them (120$). Hence, 2 will vote for the fireworks and one will vote against and fireworks will be bought.

Again, the vote clashes with the cost-benefit analysis.

3) The first choice is wrong. It is very difficult for a government to provide the exact types of public goods that everyone wants because that would be too costly; one cannot have a public good that everyone pays for so that only a couple of people enjoy it. In our example, we saw that in every case, a public good and its production would have sime supporters and some adversaries.

Majority rule is not always the most efficient way to decide public goods; as we have seen in the second case, the cost-benefit analysis yields that the fireworks are not worth it but they are approved by the majority nonetheless.

The final sentence is correct. The differing preferences of the people make a clearcut choice impossible and the government has to take into account various tradeoffs and compromises in order to determine which public goods to provide.

Choose the only point on the graph that shows the equilibrium wage
a_sh-v [17]

We would need to see the graph, but the equilibrium point is where the wage paid is equal to the supply of workers. On a graph, this would be the point where the two lines intersect. That is the point where the supply of people willing to do the job at a certain rate, meets the company's demand for workers and the rate they are willing to pay.

Scampini Technologies is expected to generate $25 million in free cash flow next year, and FCF is expected to grow at a constant
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The stock’s value per share is $10.42

Explanation:

For:    

FCF1 = Expected cash flow of the firm

        = $25 million  

WACC = 10%    

g = 4%    

Firm value = FCF1/(WACC - g)    

                  = 25,000,000/(0.10 - 0.04)    

                  = $416,666,666.67    

We know that there is no debt & preferred stock, so the firm value will be equal to Equity value :

Firm value = Equity value

                 = $416,666,666.67

stock value per share = Equity Value/No. of share outstanding

                                     = $416,666,666.67/40,000,000

                                     = $10.42 per share

Therefore, The stock’s value per share is $10.42
