Answer:

Aristotle argues that what differentiates human beings from other animals is the human reason.

Explanation:

"Good life" can be seen as the one in which a person understand and exercise their rational faculties. The word "good" can be used to show moral approval. Therefore, for someone to be called good, they must have possessed and practiced many important virtues and not pursuing their own pleasure all the time.

According to Aristotle, happiness consists in achieving all the goods like health, wealth, knowledge, friends etc throughout a lifetime. He sees happiness as the central purpose of human life.

Aristotle believes that the highest good is a solitary nucleus which all other goods are acted upon and this highest good is happiness.

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years,
shtirl [24]

Answer:

e)  $37.05

Explanation:

Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.

So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula

P = D (1+g)/r-g

r- rate of return, g = growth rate

Present value of the future dividends:

PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)

                     = 1.4047

PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)

                     =  1.27

PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)

Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)

=43.114

Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

  =43.114 × (1.12^(-2))

   = 34.37

Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37

                                       = $37.05

Note

To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0

IceJOKER [234]
Cyclical deficit is the downfall of the business cycle, this usually occurs when the economy is beneath potential income. The formula for this is, CD= tax rate x ( potential deficit - actual deficit). Therefore, the cyclical deficit is $200.  I hope this helps.

Assume that on December 31, 2019, Kimberly-Clark Corp. signs a 10-year, non-cancelable lease agreement to lease a storage buildi
Anika [276]

Answer:

a) the journal entry to record the signing of the lease agreement:

December 31, 2019, lease agreement signed

Dr Right of use 483,360

   Cr Lease liability 483,360

the lease liability must record the present value of the 10 annual lease payments: $68,099 and 8% discount rate:

present value of an annuity due = payment + {payment x [1 - (1 + r)⁻⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾]/r}

  • payment = 66,699
  • r = 8%
  • n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

PV annuity due = 66,699 + {66,699 x [1 - (1 + 0.08)⁻⁹]/0.08} = 66,699 + 416,661 = $483,360

the journal entries to record the annual lease payments:

December 31, 2019, first annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 66,699

   Cr Cash 66,699

December 31, 2020, second annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 33,366

Dr Interest expense 33,333

   Cr Cash 66,699

interest expense = $416,661 x 8% = $33,333

December 31, 2020, depreciation expense

Dr Depreciation expense - leased building 48,336

   Cr Accumulated depreciation - leased building 48,336

December 31, 2021, third annual lease payment

Dr Lease liability 36,035

Dr Interest expense 30,664

   Cr Cash 66,699

interest expense = $383,295 x 8% = $30,664

December 31, 2021, depreciation expense

 Dr Depreciation expense - leased building 48,336

   Cr Accumulated depreciation - leased building 48,336

b) this would increase the right to use asset and lease liability by:

= -$5,000 + $1,000 = $4,000

c) this would increase the right to use asset and lease liability by:

= 5,000 + {5,000 x [1 - (1 + 0.08)⁻⁹]/0.08} = $36,234
