The question is incomplete:
If Farmer Brown plants no seeds on his farm, he gets no harvest. If he plants 1 bag of seeds, he gets 5 bushels of wheat. If he plants 2 bags, he gets 9 bushels. If he plants 3 bags, he gets 12 bushels. A bag of seeds costs $120, and seeds are his only cost.
Farmer Brown's total-cost curve is
a. increasing at an increasing rate.
b. increasing at a decreasing rate.
c. increasing at a constant rate.
d. decreasing.
Answer:
a. increasing at an increasing rate.
Explanation:
To determine the answer, you can create a graph with the information given hich is attached.
You can see that the curve is increasing and because of that you can eliminate option d that is decreasing. Then, you have to consider that increasing at a constant rate would show an straight line which is not the case. Also, increasing at a decreasing rate would show a decreasing slope which is not what you see in the graph. Because of that, the answer is that Farmer Brown’s total cost curve is increasing at an increasing rate because the graphs shows an increasing slope.
Answer:
Coupon= $30 per period.
20 period for semi annual coupon payment.
28.148% discount rate
Explanation:
1.) Coupon rate * face value of bond = coupon
semi annual rate =6%/2=3%
Coupon= 1000 *3%= $30 per period.
2.) t= number of periods = years of maturity * coupon payment semi-annual
t= 10 * 2 = 20 periods.
3. Discount rate formula =C+[(F-P)/t] / (F+P/2)
where C=coupon payment annual
F= face value of security
P=price of security= 1000 *8%=80
t= years of maturity.
so we have⇒ 60+[(1000-80)/10]/(1000+80)/2
=152/540
=28.148%
Answer:
The answer is $1,404,000
Explanation:
Total amount realized from the issuance: 40,000 shares x $24
= $960,000
Treasury stock repurchased:
6,000 shares x $26
=$156,000
Net income = $600,000
The total amount of stockholders' equity at December 31, 2018 is:
Net income + amount realized from issuance - amount of treasury stock
$600,000 + $960,000 - $156,000
$1,404,000
Answer:
$48.2
Explanation:
The increase in dividend is 3.9%
= 3.9/100
= 0.039
The recently paid dividend is $3.62
The required return is 11.7%
= 11.7/100
= 0.117
Therefore the price per share of the company stock can be calculated as follows
= 3.62(1+0.039)/0.117-0.039
= 3.62(1.039)/0.078
= 3.761/0.078
= 48.2
Hence the price per share is $48.2
