The complete health of a person is a good forecaster of his or her life expectancy. If a person's quality of life is higher than his/her life expectancy is higher which makes him or her live longer. Also, if a person's overall health is good than the life expectancy is higher which also makes him or her live longer. Consequently, both life expectancy and quality of life are valid indicators of overall health.
Question Options:
A) economic order quantity
B) partial productivity
C) multifactor productivity
D) internal service quality
Answer: MULTIFACTOR PRODUCTIVITY.
Explanation: Multifactor productivity is also known as total factor productivity can be defined as the elements or influences that determines the output in production from the inputs. Like in this question, the company determined the inputs (wood, metal, fabric, labor hours, capital, and the electricity) required to produced an output (chair).
Answer:
represent objects with words and images
Explanation:
The preoperational stage occurs is the second stage of Piaget's theory of Cognitive Development. Here, the child becomes familiar with the use of symbols. This also helps in the development of the child's language skills.
The child starts to understand the concept of thinking. This is known as meta-cognition. The ability of the child to represent objects with words and images is integral in the learning and use of language.
Hence, the answer is represent objects with words and images.
Answer:
a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13
EPS = $3.60
Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80
Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50
Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12
Growth rate = r x b
Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065
Po= D1/Ke-g
Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065
Po = $1.80/0.055
Po = $32.73
P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>
Earnings per share
P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>
$3.60
P/E ratio = 9.09
b. ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)
ER(S) = 5 + 9.6
ER(S) = 14.6%
Explanation:
In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.
In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.
