Answer:

Explanation:

Grand prize = $15,000

Second prize = $1,500

Number of tickets sold = 12,000

The probability of getting the grand prize ($15,000) is 1/12,000

The probability of getting the second prize ($1,500) is 1/12,000

Each ticket costs $4

Expected value is -4 + 1/12,000 X 15,000 + 1/12,000 X 1,500

= -1.5.

The expected winnings for a ticket buyer is therefore -$1.5

Compare Franklin Roosevelts ( a democrat) actions concerning the economy in the 1930s with Ronald reagans (a republican) actions
steposvetlana [31]
Franklin Roosevelt's economic plans were to help the people by giving them things such as social security, lowering poverty rates, increasing wages and similar, while Ronald Regan's plan was to reduce tax rates so as to increase production and the overall wealth of the people. From this we might conclude that while Roosevelt wanted to help prevent poverty and help the people by through direct means, Regan wanted to help people by helping their employers who would in turn help their employees due to accumulated wealth.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Task a:

The answer is $24,500.

Task b:

The answer is 17%

Explanation:

<h2>Task a:</h2><h3>What is the maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the LOWEST  component cost of EQUITY?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>

We already know the following:

Projected net income = $21,000

Payout ratio = 30%

Retention ratio = 70%

Debt share = 40%

Equity share = 60%

Maximum amount of capital to be raised at the lowest component cost of equity = Projected net income ×\frac{Retention ratio}{Equity share}

= $21,000 × \frac{0.70}{0.60}

= $24,500

<h3>Answer:</h3>

The maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the lowest component of equity is $24,500.

<h2>Task b:</h2><h3>What is the component cost of equity by selling new common stock?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>

k(e) (component cost of external equity) = [Dividend (D0)(1 + growth) / stock price(1 - flotation cost)] + growth

Formula:

k(e) = \frac{Do(1+g)}{P(1-0.20)} + 0.05

Where

Do = $2.00

G = 0.05

P = $21/88

= ($2.00(1 + 0.05) / $21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05

= ($2.10/$21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05

= ($2.10/$21.88(0.80) + 0.05

= 0.17 or 17%

<h3>Answer: </h3>

The component cost of equity by selling new common stock = 17%
