Answer:
Real purchasing power increase= 2.16%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You deposit $1,900 in your savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 3.25%. The inflation rate is 1.09%.
In this example, we have two different and opposite effects. The interest rate increases your purchasing power. If the inflation rate is 0, the purchasing power will increase (in one year) 3.25%.
The inflation rate decreases the purchasing power of nominal income.
Real purchasing power increase= annual interest rate - inflation rate
Real purchasing power increase= 3.25 - 1.09= 2.16%
Answer:
P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00
Explanation:
The two stage growth model of DDM will be used to calculate the price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow over time with two different growth rates. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The formula for price of the stock today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [ (D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n ]
Where,
- D0 is the dividend today or most recently paid dividend
- g1 is the initial growth rate which is 20%
- g2 is the constant growth rate which is 8%
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2.5 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.15) + 2.5 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.15)^2 +
2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.15)^3 +
[(2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 * (1+0.08) / (0.15 - 0.08) / (1+0.15)^3)
P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00
Answer:
Bonds
Explanation:
Bonds fit all of Marlon's needs since:
- He can know the interest rate up front, e.g. the coupon rate of the bond, or the market rate if the bond is purchased at a premium or discount.
- Some bonds have a very remote maturity date, up to 30 years (e.g. US securities) and that is a long period of time.
- Even though Marlon can cash his money before the bond matures (he can sell them), it is something that takes a few days and must be done by a broker.
- Bonds are very secure investments, specially US securities which are considered the most secure investment in the world, but even corporate bonds are considered secure. In case the firm goes is liquidated, bondholders receive their money before preferred stockholders and common stockholders.
Answer:
B. Credit to sales revenue
Explanation:
As per revenue recognition principle, revenue should be recognized when it is earned and not when cash is received.
As per accrual basis of accounting, revenue is to be recognized when the ownership of the goods has been passed by the seller to the buyer and there is reasonable assurance that payment would be received.
When a sale is effected and goods are delivered with reasonable certainty that payment would be received, following journal entry is recorded:
