Answer:
<em>Duress </em>
Explanation:
Duress is a protection against an agreement. Duress is <em>the wrong pressure to force an individual into an agreement that he or she would not normally enter into. </em>
Duress involves using force intentionally or threatening force to induce the agreement.
It may be either physical or mental manipulation, but it must be intimidation to the degree that it robs the other individual of independent will or freedom of choice.
This implies that no fair alternative to entering the contract is left to the individual.
Answer: 15%
Explanation:
IRR is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal zero. Required rates of return that are less than the IRR will therefore result in a positive NPV and those that are higher will result in a negative NPV.
Use Excel to find the IRR.
= IRR(-328325,115000,115000,115000,115000)
= 15%
As the required rate of 13% is less than the IRR of 15%, the new machine will have a positive NPV.
Answer:
a. 7.71%
b. $57.57
Explanation:
a. The computation of discount rate is shown below:-
Discount rate = Risk free rate of return + Market Risk Premium × Beta
Here Common stock will have the same market risk as S&P 500 i.e Beta of Common Stock is 1
= 1.5% + 7.6 × 1
= 7.71%
b. The computation of stock price is shown below:-
Stock price = Expected Stock Value at year End ÷ (1+ Discount rate) + Expected Dividend ÷ (1 + Discount Rate)
= $60 ÷ (1 + 7.71%) + $2 ÷ (1 + 7.71%)
= $60 ÷ 1.0771 + 2 ÷ 1.0771
= $55.71 + $1.86
= $57.57
