Answer:

B) $(1,813)

Explanation:

Initial investment = 17,550

Annual cashflows = 2,650

Terminal Cashflow = 500

You can solve for NPV using financial calculator with the following inputs;

CF0= -17,550

C01 = 2,650

F01 (Frequency) = 19

C02 = 2,650 + 500 = 3,150

I=16%

Net present value; NPV = -1,812.879 or -1,813 rounded off to the nearest whole number.

Llana [10]

Answer:

1. Year 1 expected value = $32.24

2. Required rate of return = 7.35%

Explanation:

1. For computing the stock price which is expected 1 year from now is shown below:

= Current Price × (1+rate)^number of years

= $31 × (1+0.04)^1

= $31 × 1.04

= $32.24

Hence, the expected 1 year value of stock price is $32.24

2. The required rate of return is computed by using an formula which is shown below:

= (Current Year dividend ÷ Current stock price)+ growth rate

where,

current year dividend is = D1

And, D1 = DO × (1+g)

where,

DO = previous dividend share

g = growth rate

So, $1 × (1+0.04)

= $1 × 1.04

= $1.04

Now apply these values to the above formula

So, required rate of return is equals to

= ($1.04 ÷ $31) + 0.04

= 7.35%

Hence, the required rate of return is 7.35%
