Answer:
There is no correct answer is these options. But the correct answer is $113.41
Explanation:
The formula to solve this is:
Po = D1/r - g
Po is the Current price of the common stock
D1 is the future dividend payment
r is the rate of return
g is the growth rate.
This is quite different from the usual(single stage). This is Two-stage Dividend Discount Model. To solve this;
D1(Dividend in year 1) is $3.15( $2.42 x 1.3)
D2(Dividend in year 2) is $3.78(3.15 x 1.2)
D3(Dividend in year 3) is $4.15($3.78 x 1.1)
D in subsequent years is $4.36(4.15 x 1.05)
P3(price of stock in year 3) = $4.36/0.083 - 0.05
=$132.12
Now the stock's current market value is
$3.15/1.08 + $3.78/1.08^2 + $4.15/1.08^3 + $132.12^3
The price of the stock is $113.41
Tricky tricky. I'll go with 'A. you do not take too much' from experience.

Answer:
Government spending would have to change by <u>$1.6 billion</u>
Explanation:
The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) refers to the proportion of an increase in aggregate income that is spent on consumption of commodities by a consumer.
Since from the question, we have:
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75
The MPC can therefore be used to calculate the fiscal multiplier which measures the effect of government spending on real GDP as follows:
Fiscal multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC) = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 1 / 0.25 = 4.0
Therefore, we have:
Change in government spending = Fiscal multiplier * Amount of targeted increase real GDP = 4.0 * $400 million = $1.6 billion
Therefore, government spending would have to change by <u>$1.6 billion</u> to generate $400 million increase in real GDP.
