Answer:

P0 = $33.25558633 rounded off to $33.26

Explanation:

The stock price today or the price per share today can be calculated using the discounted cash flow approach or the dividend discount model. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. In the given scenario, the price of the stock will be calculated as follows,

P0 = D1 / (1+r)  +  D2 / (1+r)^2  +  ....  +  Dn / (1+r)^n  +  

[ (Dn * (1+G) / (r - G)) / (1+r)^n }

Where,

  • D1, D2 and so on will be calculated by applying the appropriate growth rates to D0 of $1.85
  • r is the required rate of return
  • G is the sustainable or constant growth rate

P0 = 1.85 * (1+0.24) / (1+0.14)  +  1.85 * (1+0.24) * (1+0.18) / (1+0.14)^2  +  

1.85 * (1+0.24) * (1+0.18) * (1+0.12) / (1+0.14)^3  +  

[ (1.85 * (1+0.24) * (1+0.18) * (1+0.12) * (1+0.06) / (0.14 - 0.06)) / (1+0.14)^3 ]

P0 = $33.25558633 rounded off to $33.26

A trader creates a long butterfly spread from options with strike prices $60, $65, and $70 by trading a total of 400 options. Th
malfutka [58]

Answer:

$400

Explanation:

From the question, there is a butterfly spread when a trader buys 100 options with strike prices $60 and $70 and sells 200 options with strike price $65.

The maximum gain is the point where both the stock price and the middle strike price are equal, i.e. equal to $65. At that point, the options payoffs are respectively $500, 0, and 0. By implication, the total payoff is $500.

The set up cost of the butterfly spread can be calculated as follows:

Setup cost = ($11×100) + ($18×100) – ($14×200)

                  = 1,100 + 1,800 – 2,800

Setup cost = $100

Net gain = Options payoffs – Setup cost = $500 - $100 = $400

Therefore, the maximum net gain (after the cost of the options is taken into account) is $400.

A government spends money in order to:
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

A. make sure government programs can function properly.

Explanation:

Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.

The different types of tax include the following;

1. Income tax: a tax on the money made by workers in the state. This type of tax is paid by employees with respect to the amount of money they receive as their wages or salary.

2. Property tax: a tax based on the value of a person's home or business. It is mainly taxed on physical assets or properties such as land, building, cars, business, etc.

3. Sales tax: a tax that is a percent of the price of goods sold in retail stores. It is being paid by the consumers (buyers) of finished goods and services and then, transfered to the appropriate authorities by the seller.

The main reason for government spending such as building public schools, power supply, water, development of infrastructures, etc., is to ensure and facilitate the proper functioning of all government programs.

Hence, the government of a particular country is saddled with the responsibility of spending on basic projects or programs so as to create a sustainable, growing and efficient economy for its citizens.

What are the tax liability, the marginal tax rate, and the average tax rate for a married couple filing jointly with $51,900 tax
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Tax Liability: $5,840

Marginal Tax Rate: 12%

Average Tax Rate: 11%

Explanation:

*The tax liability is determined using the tax rate for 2019 tax bracket.

For married couple filling jointly, the tax rates for taxable income of $51,900 are:

Tax Rate                  Income Bracket

10%                          $0 – $19,400

12%                           $19,401 – $78,950

So the tax liability will be:

10% * $19,400 = $1,940                            (first $19,400)

12% * $32,500 = $3,900                           (Balance of $32,500)

Total tax liability = $5,840.

*Marginal tax rate is the tax rate paid on the last unit of income, the last dollar.  In this case, the last dollar was taxed at 12%. Hence the marginal tax rate is 12%.

*Average tax rate is the proportion of taxable income that is to be paid as tax. It is derived by dividing the tax liability by taxable income.

Average tax rate =<u> $5840</u>

                               $51,900

Average tax rate =11.2524%

Average tax rate = 11% (rounded up to whole figure)
