Answer:

The answer is: A) a violation of the Stored Communications Act.

Explanation:

The Stored Communications Act (1986) regulates voluntary and compelled disclosure of "stored wire and electronic communications and transactional records". In order to force third party internet service providers (ISPs) to disclose the contents of email or other files stored, only a subpoena and prior notice is needed.

In this case, Bodegas & Bistros didn't present a subpoena to the network, so they shouldn't have been allowed the information.

Consider the following information for three stocks, Stock A, Stock B, and Stock C. The returns on each of the three stocks are
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

b. 5.0%

Explanation:

For this question, we use the Capital Asset Pricing model (CAPM) formula that is shown below:

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

where,

The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium

So, for stock A, the market risk premium is

10% = 5% + 1.0 × market risk premium

10 - 5% = 1.0  × market risk premium

5% ÷ 1.0 = market risk premium

So, the market risk premium is 5.0%

Answer:

Do =  $2.00

D1= Do(1+g)1 =  $2(1+0.2)1 = $2.40

D2= Do(1+g)2 = $2(1+0.2)2 = $2.88

D3= Do(1+g)3 = $2(1+0.2)3 = $3.456

D4= Do(1+g)4 = $2(1+0.2)4 = $4.1472

D5= Do(1+g)5 = $2(1+0.2)5 = $4.97664

PHASE 1

V1 = D1/1+ke + D2/(1+ke)2 + D3/(1+ke)3 +D4/(1+ke)4 + D5/(1+ke)5

V1 = 2.40/(1+0.15) + 2.88/(1+0.15)2 + 3.456/(1+0.15)3 + 4.1472/(1+0.15)4 + 4.97664/(1+0.15)5

V1 = $2.0870 + $2.1777 +  $2.2723 + $2.3712 + $2.4742

V1 = $11.3824

PHASE 2

V2 = DN(1+g)/ (Ke-g )(1+k e)n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

V2 = $4.97664(1+0.02)/(0.15-0.02)(1+0.02)5      

V2 = $5.0762/0.1435

V2 = $35.3742

Po = V1 + V2

Po = $11.3824 + $35.3742

Po = $46.76

Explanation: This is a typical question on valuation of shares with two growth rate regimes. In the first phase, the value of the share would be obtained by capitalizing the dividend for each year by the cost of equity of the company. The dividend for year 1 to year 5 was obtained by subjecting the current dividend paid(Do) to growth rate. The growth rate In the first regime was 20%.

In the second phase, the value of shares would be calculated by taking cognizance of the second growth rate of 2%. In this phase, the last dividend paid in year 5 would be discounted at the appropriate discount rate after it has been adjusted for growth.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

30.92%

Explanation:

You find the answer by calculating the cost of equity using two methods; Dividend discount model and CAPM

<u>Dividend discount model;</u>

cost of equity; r = (D1/P0) +g

whereby, D1 = next year's dividend = 3.00

P0= current price = 13.65

g = dividend growth rate = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal

r = (3/13.65) + 0.11

r = 0.2198 + 0.11

r= 0.3298 or 32.98%

<u>Using CAPM;</u>

r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)

r = 0.049 + (2.8 * 0.0856)

r = 0.049 + 0.2397

r = 0.2887 or 28.87%

Next, find the average of the two cost of equities;

=(32.98% + 28.87% )/2

= 30.92%
