Answer:

The equilibrium number of firms is 20.

Explanation:

Q = SH × b

   = 2,400 × (1/20)

   = 2,400 × 0.05

   = 120

Also given, Q = S / n

                120 = 2,400 / n

                  n = 20

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

A. Dividend per Share = Dividend Payout Ratio * Earnings Per Share

Putting the values given to calculate dividend per share we get,

Stages DPS = Payout Ratio * EPS DPS

Stage 1 =0.00*$0.30                         $0

Stage 2 = 0.13*1.95                         $0.25

Stage 3 =0.31 * $ 2.80                         $0.868

Stage 4 = 0.56*$3.40                         $1.90

b. Calculation of Investors After Tax Income from Cash Dividend:-

Cash Dividend = Number of Shares * DPS in Stage IV

= 290 * $ 1.90

= $552.16

After Tax Income = DIvidend ( 1 - Tax Rate)

= $ 552.16 ( 1- 0.15)

= $ 469.34

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

(1) Payback period is 4.588 years or 4 years and 215 days

(2) 5.13%

Explanation:

(1)

Payback period is the time period in which Initial Investment made in the project is recovered in the form of cash inflows.

Payback period = Initial Investment / Annual net cash flow

Payback period = $390,000 / $85,000 = 4.588 years = 4 years and 215 days

(2)

As per given data

Net Income = $20,000

Initial Investment = $390,000

Annual rate of return is the ration of net income to the investment made in the project.

Annual rate of return = Annual net Income / Initial Investment  

Annual rate of return = ($20,000 / $390,000) x 100 = 5.13%
