Answer:
$21.37
Explanation:
g = -5.4%
D0 = $3.93
D1 = D0 (1+g)
D1 = 3.93*(1-0.054)
D1 = 3.93*0.946
D1 = 3.71778
Investors require a return (ke) of 12%
P0 = D1/(ke - g)
P0 = 3.71778 / (12% - (-5.4%)
P0 = 3.71778 / (12% + 5.4%)
P0 = 3.71778 / 17.4%
P0 = 3.71778 / 0.174
P0 = 21.3665517
P0 = $21.37
So, the expected price of the stock next year is $21.37.
Answer:
b. $461,820
Explanation:
The computation of the amount reported in the balance sheet is shown below:
But before that we need to find out the amortization of discount which is
= Purchased value of bond × interest rate of return - face value of bond × interest rate
= $456,200 × 10% - $500,000 × 8%
= $45,620 - $40,000
= $5,620
Now the amount reported is
= Purchased value + discount amortization
= $456,200 + $5,620
= $461,820
Hence, the option b is correct
Trade surplus or positive trade balance.
Both of these terms refer to the situation of higher exports than imports.
