Answer:
The cost of equity is 12.49 percent
Explanation:
The price per share of a company whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate can be calculated using the constant growth model of the DMM. The DDM bases the price of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D1 / r - g
Where,
- D1 is the dividend expected for the next period
- r is the cost of equity
- g is the growth rate in dividends
As we already know the P0 which is price today, the D1 and the growth rate in dividends (g), we can plug in the values of these variables in the formula to calculate the cost of equity (r)
100.81 = 8.76 / (r - 0.038)
100.81 * (r - 0.038) = 8.76
100.81r - 3.83078 = 8.76
100.81r = 8.76 + 3.83078
r = 12.59078 / 100.81
r = 0.12489 or 12.489% rounded off to 12.49%
Answer:
PPF : Downward Sloping Straight Line
Explanation:
PPF is the locus of product combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.
It is downward sloping : Because of inverse relationship between two goods- if one has to be increased other has to be decreased , because of same resources & technology.
Marginal Opportunity Cost (Slope of PPC): is ratio of a good sacrifised to gain each additional unit of the other good.
∆ Good sacrifised / ∆ Good gained
If this ratio is same i.e constant amount of a good is sacrifised to gain an additional amount of the other one , the slope of PPC is constant & it is a straight line
Eg : Good1 Good2 MOC [∆Good2/∆Good1]
0 20 _
10 10 -10/10 = -1 (10-20)/(10-0)
20 0 -10/10 = -1 (0-10)(/20-10)
So , same (1) good 2 is sacrifised to attain a good 1 each time.
However Generally: MOC is increasing , because of assumption that resources are unequally efficient in various goods production - shifting good from efficient to inefficient increases sacrifise each time. This makes PPC usually concave.
If the company's annual profits decrease (the amount of cash they make per year) then that would lead to a decrease in the price of a company's stock.

amount
Sales revenue $410,000 $1,213,400 $803,400
Production costs ($340,000) ($580,000) ($240,000)
Operating income $70,000 $633,400 $563,400
The company should process further and sell products B and C because its operating income will increase by $563,400.
