Answer:

a. $1.80

b. 18.33 times

Explanation:

The computation of the earning per share is shown below:

a. Earning per share = (Net income after tax) ÷ (Number of shares)

                               = ($9,216,000) ÷ (5,120,000 shares)

                               = $1.80

b. And, the Price-earnings ratio = (Market price per share) ÷ (Earning per share)

= $33 ÷ $1.80

= 18.33 times

Are the following statements true or false? The difference between savings and investments is that savings is money set aside fo
grigory [225]

Answer:

That statement is true.

Explanation:

Basically, You put your money in saving if you intended to use that money for future consumption. You put your money in investment if you intended to make financial gain out of it.

For example,

Let's say that you want to buy a laptop that cost $700. You only able to spend $350 per month since you have to consider other more important payment such as rent or food. So you set aside $350 for two month and purchase the laptop at the end of the second month. This is an example of saving.

In another case let's say that you put that $350 in Bonds rather than purchasing laptop. You Let that bond mature and take a 3% interest as profit. Two month later, the value of your money is increased. This is an example of an investment.

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Interest rate on the a three year bond =5.5%

Explanation:

one-year bond rate expected = 4%, 5%, 6% for the next three years

liquidity premium on a three year bond = 0.5%

number of years = 3

The interest rate on the a three year bond can be calculated as

= liquidity premium + ( summation of bond rates for the next three years/number of years )

= 0.5 + ( (4+5+6)/3)

= 0.5 + ( 15/3)

= 0.5 + 5  = 5.5%

Your father paid $10,000 (cf at t = 0) for an investment that promises to pay $750 at the end of each of the next 5 years, then
natta225 [31]

From the problem statement it is clear that here we need to find out simple interest rate. 
One do not get interest on any investment made at the end of tenure.  
Putting this mathematically:
 Let amount at the end of 5th year as A 
Simple Interest for 5 years, SI = 750 *5
 SI = 3750
 Hence A = 10000 +3750
 A= 13750
 Let rate of return = R
 Tenure t = 5
 But,
  A = P(1 + R*t/100)
 13750 = 10000( 1+ R*5/100)
 13750 = 10000 + 50000R/100
 3750 = 500R
 R = 3750/500
 R = 7.5 %
 
 Hence rate of return is 7.5% per annum (answer)
