Answer:
Option C Incorrect; adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary
Explanation:
Adjustment to price changes = (Amount received n years ago divided by Price Index n years ago) * Price Index today
Adjustment To price changes = ($28,000 / 110.8) * 180.5 = $45613.7
The amount $28,000 is worth $45,613.7 in todays value which means that if we adjust for price changes, Dave is incorrect because his salary is worth less by an amount $613.7 from his father's salary.
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Using the Gordon Growth Model, we can adequately demonstrate that the dividend and price of a share are both components of the cashflow to be considered in share valuation.
Price per share is found to be D(1) / (r - g)
where:
Do = Dividend now
D1 = Dividend in year 1
g = growth
r = required return
So we see that the market price of a share which determines the market capitalization of a company is predicted by a growth in dividends. So the benefits of holding a share will not only depend on how much the share is sold now as against how much it can be sold in the future (in order to make a gain), but also how much you can be earning until such sale occurs.
