Answer:
Economic models often vary greatly in assumptions and simplifications.
Explanation:
Most models in Classical Economics are based on a lot of generalizations and simplifications, that intend to model the behavior of the situations of the real world but often fail to encompass all the intricacies and complications that even most straightforward situations present. These simplifications help the Economists figure out the mathematical laws that are governing the real world economic systems. Therefore making the economic modeling a simpler process.
Classic economics implies three basic assumptions:
1- People behave rationally in any situation.
2- Firms and individual want to maximize profit and utility
3- People act independently based on available information.
Answer:
g = 16%
dividends yield:
Year 1 4.60%
Year 3: 4.78%
<u>expected rate of return: </u>
year 1 20.6%
year 3 20.78%
<u></u>
Explanation:
<u>grow rate:</u>
D1 /D0 = g
1.16/1.00 - 1 = 0.16
1.3456/1.16 - 1 = 0.16
the grow rate is 16%
<u>dividend yield:</u>
dividends/stock price = dividend yield
1/21.7 = 0,0460 = 4.60%
1.3456/28.15 = 0,04780 = 4.78%
<u>expected rate of return: </u>
dividend yield + grow rate
4.60% + 16% = 20.6%
4.78% + 16% = 20.78%
Answer
Miguel must set aside $62,745 annually
Explanation
N = Number of years till Miguel would retire = 43 years
FV = Future Value = $1,000,000
r = Interest rate = 10%
PMT = Annual payments (at the ending of the year) = ?? The question asks us to calculate this
We would use the future value ordinary annuity formula to calculate PMT
FV = PMT ![[\frac{(1+r )^{N} -1}{r} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B%281%2Br%20%29%5E%7BN%7D%20-1%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D)
1000000 = PMT ![[\frac{(1+0.10 )^{10} -1}{0.10} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B%281%2B0.10%20%29%5E%7B10%7D%20-1%7D%7B0.10%7D%20%5D)
PMT ≅ $62,745
Miguel must set aside $62,745 annually
Answer:
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
1st July Debit Prepaid insurance $13620
Credit Cash $13620
31st December Debit Insurance expenses $2270
Credit Prepaid insurance $2270
Insurance expense was calculated as:
= $13620/3 years × 6months/12months
= $4540 × 1/2
= $2270
Brand B market share is now at 14%
100 = 30 + (15-3x) + (20-4x) + (65-13x)
100 = 130-20x
20x = 130-100
x = 30/20
x = 1.5
b = 20-4*1.5
= 14
