Answer:

Decrease; Increase

Explanation:

When there is a decline in the marginal productivity of low skilled workers, it results in a decline or decrease in the demand for low skilled workers. Marginal productivity is the extra output gained from adding one unit of labour. Thus, if low skilled workers are added to increase marginal productivity, but then reaches the point of decline, the demand or the need for those low skilled workers reduces. The reduction or decrease in the demand for these low skilled workers then lead to an increase in number of unemployed workers as those unskilled workers becomes jobless.

gregori [183]

Answer:

$13.19

Explanation:

Data given

Annual dividend = $1.48

Increase percentage annually = 2.5%

Discount rate percentage = 14%

The computation of price is shown below:-

Price = Dividend ÷ (Cost of equity - Growth rate)

= ($1.48 × 1.025) ÷ (0.14 - 0.025)

= $1.517 ÷ 0.115

= $13.19

Therefore for computing the price we simply applied the above formula.

Selected information from Gerrard, Inc.’s financial activities in the year 2004 was as follows: Net income was $330,000. The tax
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

$0.26

Explanation:

diluted earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / (weighted average outstanding shares + diluted shares)

net income = $330,000

preferred dividends = 2,000 x $500 x 8% = $80,000. Since the preferred stocks are convertible, they will be considered diluted shares. Therefore, no preferred dividends will be included in the calculation.

weighted average outstanding shares:

  • January 1 = 700,000 x 12/12 = 700,000
  • March 1 = 200,000 x 10/12 = 166,666.7
  • total weighted average = 866,666.7

diluted shares = 2,000 preferred stocks x 200 = 400,000

diluted EPS = $330,000 / (866,666.7 + 400,000) = $0.260526247 ≈ $0.26

from accessibility improvement to land development: a comparative study on the impacts of madrid-seville high-speed rail.
iris [78.8K]

The five cities connected by the Madrid-Seville High-Speed Rail (HSR)—Madrid, Ciudad Real, Puertollano, Cordoba, and Seville—that have changed their land cover are the subject of this study. Between 1991 and 2006, there was an analysis. According to the report, the two largest cities in the Madrid-Seville region—Madrid and Seville—receive the majority of the benefits from land development, although smaller HSR-served cities also gain from this. Each city has its own unique land development process.

Madrid–Seville high-speed rail line.
The 472 kilometres (293 miles) long Madrid-Seville high-speed line, also known as NAFA or Nuevo Acceso Ferroviario a Andaluca, is a Spanish railway line used for high-speed travel between Madrid and Seville. Since April 21, 1992, the first high-speed rail link in Spain has been operational, reaching speeds of up to 300 km/h (186 mph). Over half less time was required to go between the two end points.

The high-speed rail line from Madrid to Malaga departs at Cordoba. Only the Alvia service is extended from Seville to Cádiz.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

D) 18.2 times

Explanation:

The accounts receivable turnover is determined by dividing the total credit revenues by the average receivables.

The average receivables is the sum of the opening and closing receivable balances divided by 2.

The average receivables is  ( $ 1,189 + $ 955) / 2 =  $ 1,072

The total revenues in the absence of other information is considered as credit sales.

Average receivables turnover      = $ 19,548  /  $ 1,072  = 18.24 times

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Holding period return = 14.49%, Standard Deviation = 11.08 approx

Explanation:

Eco Scenario    Dividend     Stock Price  HPR    Prob     Expected HPR

Boom                         3                 60         26        0.33        8.58

Normal                       1.2               58        18.4       0.33       6.072

Recession                  0.75            49        (0.5)      0.33      <u> (0.165)</u>

              Expected HPR                                                       14.49%

<u>Calculation Of Standard Deviation</u>

                                      (A)                     (B)           (A) - (B)  

P_{1}          P_{0}       D_{1}       Given return   Exp return       d          p           p.d^{2}

60        50      3            26                     14.49         11.51       0.33      43.718

                                                                                         Total p.d^{2} =  122.91

wherein, d = deviation

               p = probability

               Standard Deviation = \sqrt{Total\ p.d^{2} }  = \sqrt{122.91} = 11.08  

<u></u>

<u>Working Note</u>:

Holding period return = \frac{P_{1}\ -\ P_{0} \ +\ D_{1}  }{P_{0} }

Boom = \frac{60\ -\ 50 \ +\ 3  }{50 }   = 26%

Similarly, for normal = \frac{58\ -\ 50 \ +\ 1.2  }{50 }  = 18.4%

Recession = \frac{49\ -\ 50 \ +\ 0.75  }{50}  = (0.5)%

figure in bracket indicates negative return
