Answer: $2,821,932

Explanation:

No. of shares outstanding before stock dividend = 493,000

Price per share = $36

Stock dividend issued (shares issued) = 493,000 x 14% = 69,020

Value of stocks issued as stock dividend = 69,020 x $36 = $2,484,720

No. of shares outstanding after stock dividend = 493,000 +69,020 = 562,020

Cash dividend = 562,020 x 0.60 = 337,212

Total reduction in retained earnings = total value of dividend issued

= $2,484,720+$337,212

= $2,821,932

pochemuha

Answer:

Expected rate of return will be 24%

So option (b) will be correct option

Explanation:

We have given dividend in next year will be $2

So dividend D_1=2$

Current stock price P_0 = $50

And it is given that in next year stock price is $60

So growth rate =\frac{60-50}{50}=0.2 = 20%

We have to find the expected return after 12 month, that is after 1 year

We know that current price is given by P_0=\frac{D_1}{R_e-g}

50=\frac{2}{R_e-0.2}

50R_e-10=2

50R_e=12

R_e=0.24 = 24%

So expected rate of return will be 24%

So option (B) will be correct option

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Stocks and Bonds

Yes.  It is a rational behavior for individuals with a long-term investment horizon to choose to invest in bonds rather than investing in stocks despite the overwhelming "evidence that suggests that over long periods of time stocks still outperform bonds."

Rational behavior involves making rational choices that provide optimal levels of benefit or utility for the individual. People who make rational choices would rather choose bonds with lower risks and returns than stocks with higher risks and returns.

Explanation:

Every rational investor would prefer to reduce her risk exposure instead of increasing it.  Every investor is also aware that  investments with higher risks attract higher returns.  However, determining the certainty of the returns is difficult.
