Answer:

30.92%

Explanation:

You find the answer by calculating the cost of equity using two methods; Dividend discount model and CAPM

<u>Dividend discount model;</u>

cost of equity; r = (D1/P0) +g

whereby, D1 = next year's dividend = 3.00

P0= current price = 13.65

g = dividend growth rate = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal

r = (3/13.65) + 0.11

r = 0.2198 + 0.11

r= 0.3298 or 32.98%

<u>Using CAPM;</u>

r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)

r = 0.049 + (2.8 * 0.0856)

r = 0.049 + 0.2397

r = 0.2887 or 28.87%

Next, find the average of the two cost of equities;

=(32.98% + 28.87% )/2

= 30.92%

In 2010, the imaginary nation of Bovina had a population of 5,000 and real GDP of 600,000. In 2011 it had a population of 5,200
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

In 2010,

Real GDP = 600,000

Population = 5,000

Real GDP per person:

= Real GDP ÷ Population

= 600,000 ÷ 5,000

= 120

In 2011,

Real GDP = 636,480

Population = 5,200

Real GDP per person:

= Real GDP ÷ Population

= 636,480 ÷ 5,200

= 122.4

Growth rate of real GDP per person during the year 2011:

= [(Real GDP per person in 2011 - Real GDP per person in 2010) ÷ Real GDP per person in 2010] × 100

= [(122.4 - 120) ÷ 120] × 100

= (2.4 ÷ 120) × 100

= 0.02 × 100

= 2%

It was seen from the data available on the world bank that the United states real GDP per person is growing at an average rate of 2% between 1910 and 2010.

Hence, the Growth rate of real GDP per person during the year 2011 is about the same as average U.S. growth over the last one-hundred years.
