Answer:

Only final goods and services are included in the calculation of GDP to avoid counting things multiple times.

Explanation:

In the calculation of the GDP only final goods and services are included because the prices of the these already have the costs of all the things that were used to produce them. If we count the intermediate products and services that were used for the final output, we will be double counting which will give a result that is not a correct estimation.

Answer:

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Explanation:

WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt

16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%

16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = 28.9556%

Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)

25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)

Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%

ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)

Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE

12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)* 1.4/(45%*9)

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

We can calculate the number of shares by using following formula:

Number of shares = [ Outstanding + ( Additional share × Months) + ( Additional share × Months)] × 1+Dividend

By putting the value, we get

= [2,600,000 + (280,000 × 6/12) + (280,000 × 3/12)] × 1.13

= [ 2,600,000 + 140,000 + 70,000 ] × 1.13

= 3,175,300

The number of compounding periods in one year is called compounding frequency. The compounding frequency affects both the presen

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1. a. 4.081%

2. c. $23,536.36

Explanation:

1. Periodic rate=(4.4%/4) = 1.1%

EAR=(1+APR/m)^m-1

where m=compounding periods

= (1+0.044/4)^4-1

= 1.011^4 - 1

= 1.04473133864 - 1

= 0.04473133864

= 4.47%

EAR=(1+APR/m)^m-1

where m=compounding periods

=(1+0.04/365)^365-1

= (1+0.00010958904)^365 - 1

= 1.00010958904^365 - 1

= 1.04080849272 - 1

= 0.04080849272

= 4.081%

2. A=P(1+r/365)^365*n

where A=future value, P=present value, r=rate of interest, n=time period.

= 22000*(1+9%/365)^(9/12*365)

= $23,536.36
