Answer:

D. The constant growth model cannot be used for a zero growth stock, where the dividend is expected to remain constant over time.

Explanation:

So, we evaluate each option.

a. We discount the dividends by the required rate of return. So incorrect.

b. The dividend yield is annual dividend per share divided by stick price per share. the 5% is the growth in dividend and not the actual dividend itself. So, incorrect.

c. The constant growth is appropriate for companies whose dividend patterns are stable. Startups have multiple stage growths and this option becomes incorrect as constant growth is not applicable.

d. A zero growth stock is one where dividend remains the same. So when there is no growth in dividend, the constant growth model becomes inapplicable. So, the statement is correct.

So, here we have our correct statement and all others are incorrect.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Net Present Value $ 23,373.49

Explanation:

First, we solve for the expected return:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}State&Return&Probability&Weight\\best-case&19,000&0.25&4,750\\base-case&12,000&0.5&6,000\\worst-case&-3,000&0.25&-750\\Total&&1&10,000\\\end{array}\right]$

Now, we solve for the present value of this vaue over the four-year period:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 10,000.00

time 4

rate 0.12

$10000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-4} }{0.12} = PV\\$

PV $30,373.4935

<u>Last we subtract the investment cosT:</u>

30,373.49 - 7,000 = 23,373.49

A project has been assigned a discount rate of 12 percent. If the project starts immediately, it will have an initial cost of $4

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The value of the option to wait is $0.70,option A.

Explanation:

In calculating the value of the option to wait,I discounted all cash flows under both alternatives, using the discount rate of 12% as given in the question.

Option to start now gives net present value(positive return ) of $360.64 while the other one gives $361.34,invariably option to wait one year gives $0.70($361.34-$360.64) more than the option to start now.

The formula used in the calculating present value is PV=FV(1+r)^n

Where PV=present value

FV=future value

r=rate of interest

n=number of year

The difference between a change in supply and a change in the quantity supplied is that the latter is:.

lakkis [162]

A change in quantity supplied is a movement along the supply curve, while a change in supply is a shift in the supply curve.

<h3>What is a supply curve?</h3>

The supply curve is a positively sloped curve that shows how quantity supplied changes with price of the good. All things being equal, the higher the price of the good, the higher the quantity supplied.

<h3>What is a change in supply and a change in quantity supplied?</h3>

A change in quantity supplied is as a result of a change in the price of the good. If price increases, quantity supplied increases and if it decreases, quantity supplied decreases.

A change in supply is caused by other factors other than price. Some of these factors include:

A change in the number of suppliers
The cost in the price of raw materials needed in the production of the good.

A change in supply leads to a movement outward or inward.
