Answer:
a.
- The quality of goods available to consumers
- The costs of air and water pollution
- The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government
b. investment; decreases; no overall change
Explanation:
a. GDP only measures goods that have monetary value so when a good cannot be properly quantified in terms of cash, it is difficult to account for it in GDP. Also, even if the good has monetary value for the Government was unaware of it, they will be unable to use it in the calculation of GDP.
For these reasons, the quality of goods available to consumers, the costs of air and water pollution and the value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government will not be a part of GDP calculation.
b.<em> When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the </em><em><u>investment</u></em><em> component of GDP while also </em><em><u>decreasing</u></em><em> net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood from Brazil causes </em><em><u>no overall change </u></em><em>in US GDP. </em>
Purchasing raw materials for use in production is considered Investment by GDP. However, since it was imported it will reduce Net Exports which means that the transaction would cancel itself out in the GDP calculation as it would both increase investment and decrease Net exports by the same amounts.
Answer:
PV of the stock today = $115.83
Explanation:
We will use the discounted cash flows approach to calculate the price of the stock today. This approach values the stock by accumulating the present value of all the expected future cash flows from the stock/asset.
As the preferred stock pays a constant dividend after equal intervals of time and for an indefinite period, it can also be treated as a perpetuity. Thus, the formula for the present value of perpetuity will be used to calculate the price of the stock at year 10 that we will discount back to today.
Present value of perpetuity = Cash flow / expected rate of return
PV of stock at Year 10 = 10 / 0.052
PV of stock at Year 10 = 192.3076923
The value of the today will be,
PV of the stock today = 192.3076923 / (1+0.052)^10
PV of the stock today = $115.83
