Answer:
The market price/value of the share of preferred stock is $74.62
Explanation:
The preferred stock pay 10.2% return on $100 per share which comes out to be 100 * 10.2% = $10.2. This dividend will remain constant no matter what the price in the market is. The price in the market is calculated by dividing the ineterest payment by the current price of the share. The formula for the current return of the preferred stock is:
0.1367 = 10.2 / P
P = 10.2 / 0.1367
P = $74.615 rounded off to $74.62
The price of money borrowed or saves is called INTEREST.
When you borrow money, interest is also paid on the principal. When you save money, interest is earned on the savings. This is the price of money borrowed or saved.
Answer: 0.785 days
Explanation:
Cash conversion cycle = Days inventory outstanding + Days sales outstanding – Days payable outstanding
Days inventory outstanding = 365/inventory turnover
= 365 / 50
= 7.3 days
Days sales outstanding = 365 / 8
= 45.625 days
Days payable outstanding = 365 / 7
= 52.14 days
Cash conversion cycle = 7.3 + 45.625 - 52.14
= 0.785 days
This question is a bit tricky to answer because it does not state how often interest rate is applied so lets say for the simple 5% interest rate the rate of interest was calculated after 2 years you would pay a total interest of $15 since interest was only calculated once but for the 3% calculating every year with compound it would be a total of 18.27 dollars in interest but then you would have to calculate the 5% simple interest the same way which would total to $30 if calculated once a year being more than the 3% compound. But lets say interest is calculated once a month your total for the 5% simple interest would be $360 dollars interest for those 2 years and the 3% compound would be $406.97 dollars in interest. So over all the less amount of times interest compounds the less interest there is making it more worth than the simple but if the compounding occurs more frequently the simple 5% interest is more worth it. In this situation I think it might just be yearly interest which makes the 3% compound more worth taking for this short amount of time.
