Answer:

Cost of equity= 8.0%

Explanation:

<em>Cost of equity can be ascertained using the dividend valuation  model. The model states that the price of a stock is the present value of future dividends discounted at the required rate of return.</em>

Cost of equity (Ke) =( Do( 1+g)/P )  + g

g - 2.2%, P - 36.72, D - 2.18

Ke = (2.18 ×(1+0.022)) /38.72  +  0.022 )  ×  100

= 0.07954 × 100

= 8.0%

 Cost of equity = 8.0%

Several months after the reorganization, Jim Umpleby checks in with department managers to see how their employees are handling
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The correct answer would be options A and B.

Explanation:

When a company is in financial trouble or faced a bankruptcy, then a process of reorganization is used in an attempt to extend the life of the company through some special arrangement to make the organization successful and progressive.

In this question, Jim wants to know how employees of the company think of the new structure after the reorganization. So the best method to talk to employees directly is to give them a surprise visit and talk to them about the reorganization. Also town hall meetings should be arranged to meet the employees one on one in an informal gathering and talk to them about the reorganization.

You want to buy a new sports coupe for $84,500, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you an apr of 6.6 percent fo
Margaret [11]

Answer: The monthly payment will be $2007.81.

We have:

Cost of the sports coupe (PV)                     $84,500

Annual Percentage Rate (APR)                         6.6%

Loan tenure in months (n)                                    48

We can find the monthly payment by using the Present value of an annuity formula:

\mathbf{PV_{Annuity}= PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right )}

Since APR is a yearly number, we need to convert it into a monthly rate.

So , r = \frac{0.066}{12} = 0.0055

Plugging values in the PV formula above we get,

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+0.0055)^{-48}}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-0.768529253}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{0.231470747}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * 42.08559028}

\mathbf{\frac{84500}{42.08559028}= PMT}

\mathbf{PMT = 2007.813112}

Suppose the U.S. yield curve is flat at 4% and the euro yield curve is flat at 3%. The current exchange rate is $1.50 per euro.
lianna [129]

Answer:

$4.24287 million per year

Explanation:

Missing question:  The swap will call for the exchange of 1 million euros for a given number of dollars in each year.

For structured three separate forward contracts of the exchange of currencies, the forward price could be found as follows

Forward exchange rate * $1 million error = Dollar to be received

Year 1 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03) * 1 million euros

Year 1 =  1.514563106796117 * 1 million euros

Year 1 =    $1.5145 million

Year 2 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^2 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = 1.529267602978604 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = $1.5293 million

Year 3 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^3 * 1 million euros

Year 3 = $1.5441 million

The number of dollars each year is determined by computing the present value:

= 1.5145 / 1.04 + 1.5293 /(1.04)^2 +1.5441 / (1.04)^3

= 1.45625 + 1.41392 + 1.3727

= $4.24287 million per year

It is often said that high rates of inflation tend to diminish people's incentive to save and invest. this view must be incorrec
SOVA2 [1]
Of the following, the best criticism of the argument above is that it overlooks the possibility that certain factors operating in the 1980’s but not in the 1970’s diminished people’s incentive to save and invest.
<span>If these other factors, unrelated to the inflation rate, that operated in the 1980’s but not the 1970’s, created an even greater disincentive to savings and investment than high inflation rates provide, then those trends do not provide evidence about the general relationship among savings, investment, and inflation. </span>
