1) Michael's, Inc., just paid $1.95 to its shareholders as the annual dividend. Simultaneously, the company announced that futur
e dividends will be increasing by 4.3 percent. If you require a rate of return of 8.5 percent, how much are you willing to pay today to purchase one share of the company's stock? 2PTS
As we know that there is a negative relationship between the rate of return i.e. required and the price of the stock. That means if the required rate of return rises, than the price of the stock reduced and vice versa
As in the given situation it is mentioned that the required rate of return increase so the price of the stock is decreased

A greater saving will reduce the impact of the multiplier.
Explanation:
A multiplier generally refers to the factor that amplifies or increase the initial change of something else.
In economics, multiplier refers how change in spending or saving results into a larger change in local output and income.
Since addition of marginal propensity to consume (MPC) and marginal propensity to save (MPS) is equal to 1, the formula for calculating a multiplier can be stated as:
Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC) or 1/MPS
From the question therefore, when MPS = 0.10, we have:
Multiplier = 1/0.10 = 10
When MPS is increases to 0.20, we have:
Multiplier = 1/0.20 = 5
Since 5 is less than 10, a greater saving will therefore reduce the impact of the multiplier.
