Answer:
D. The marginal cost of light is zero, and by convention zero-priced goods and services are excluded from GDP
Explanation:
Only things that have a monetary cost are included in GDP. Things that do not cost "anything" in monetary terms are not included, and this is a major shortcoming of GDP.
From an ecological economics standpoint, things like sunlight, air, and water are often not valued and included in GDP. This is the same case as in the question, because the marginal cost of light is zero, then, it is not included in GDP.
Answer:
Q1) a. 6.60%
Q2) c. retaining a higher percentage of earning will result in a higher growth rate.
Explanation:
Q1.)
Use dividend discount model (DDM) to solve for the growth rate;
g = r- (D1/P0)
whereby;
g = dividend growth rate
r = required rate of return = 11.40% or 0.1140 as a decimal
D1 = next year's dividend = $1.14
P0 = Current stock price = $23.75
g = 0.1140 - (1.14/23.75)
g = 0.1140 - 0.048
g = 0.066 or 6.6%
Therefore, the growth rate is 6.60%, making choice A correct.
Q2.)
c. Retained earning is the proportion of total net profit that a company reinvests back into the business for the purpose of investing in other potentially profitable projects.The returns from these projects would increase the value of the company at a faster rate if a higher percentage e.g 90% is retained. On the other hand, if the company pays a larger portion of its retained earnings e.g 70% as dividends, it will experience a slower growth rate making choice C correct.

Answer: 75%
Explanation:
The fraction of earnings that CCN must be plowing back into the company goes thus:
Growth rate = 9%
Discount rate = 12%
Expected dividend per year = $0.50
Return on equity = 12%
It should be noted that:
Growth rate = plowback ratio × Return on equity
9% = plowback ratio × 12%
Therefore, plowback ratio = 9% / 12%
Plowback ratio = 75%
Therefore, fraction of earnings must CCN be plowing back into the company is 75%.
