Answer:
Present value = $35.00326585 rounded off to $35.00
Explanation:
Using the dividend discount model, we calculate the price of the stock today. It values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. To calculate the present value of the stock, we will use the following formula,
Present value = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n +
[(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- r is the required rate of return
- g is the constant growth rate in dividends
- n is the number of years
Present value = 5 / (1+0.155) + 6.25 / (1+0.155)^2 + 4.75 / (1+0.155)^3 +
3 / (1+0.155)^4 + [(3 * (1+0.07) / (0.155 - 0.07)) / (1+0.155)^4]
Present value = $35.00326585 rounded off to $35.00
Answer:
The answer is option C. She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Explanation:
She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Investors who hold onto their bonds until maturity are assured of to receive the face value of the bond. In our case, if Andrea would have chosen to hold her $5,000 bond investment for 10 years, she would have been assured the bonds face value, however since she prefers to use the cash to work abroad, she can sell the bonds immediately.
Selling a bond before it's maturity date can either be beneficial or detrimental. This depends on the value of the bond at the time of sale. If at the time of sale the bond would have gained value, then the bond will sell at a higher price than when it was bought. On the other hand, if the bond at the time of sale has lost value, then the bond will sell at a lower price than the price which it was bought.
In our case, the best option for Andrea would be to sell the bonds immediately, since she really needs the cash. If it happens that at the point at which she sells the bonds they will have gained value, then she will have more than $5,000 cash, however, if at the point she decides to sell the bonds they will have lost value, then she will have less than $5,000 depending on how much value was lost from the time she bought the bonds and the time she sold the bonds.
Answer:
$500 million
Explanation:
The solution of the money supply and its effect is here below:-
Decrease in money supply = $50 million ÷ reserve ratio
= $50 million ÷ 10%
= $500 million
If $50 million were used to repay loans, that will have raised money supply. Thus, buying $50 million in government securities from the fed reduces the supply of capital.
Answer:
$50 billion
Explanation:
To find the change in aggregate expenditures, we need to find the change in consumption. For this, we will use the marginal propensity to consume formula:
MPC = ΔC/ΔY
Where:
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume
ΔC = Change in consumption
ΔY = Change in output (GDP)
We know that out MPC is 0.5, and our ΔY is $billion. We plug these amounts into the formula:
0.5 = ΔC / 100 billion
And we rearrange the equation to solve for ΔC
ΔC = $ 100 billion x 0.5
ΔC = $50 billion
So the change in consumption is $50 billion, which is also the change in aggregate expenditure.
