Answer:

18%

Explanation:

In this question, we use the DuPont Analysis which is shown below:

ROE = Profit margin × Total assets turnover × Equity multiplier

ROE = 6% × 2 × 1.5

        = 18%

The total assets turnover is shown below:

= Sales ÷ total assets

= $230 million ÷ $115 million

= 2

Simply we apply the ROE formula in which the profit margin is multiplied with the total assets turnover and the equity multiplier

The long run supply curve isn't affected by an increase in costs of resources because it is the potential of the economy and an increase in costs of does not change the potential of the economy.

Eastern electric currently pays a dividend of about $1.64 per share and sells for $27 a share.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The investors should expect to 9.26% of Return.

Explanation:

The Dividend Discount Model for Constant Growth should be used here.

DDM = Current Price = Dividend of Year 1 / (Required Return - Growth Rate)

Dividend of Year 1 = 1.64 (1.03) = 1.6892.

Re-arrange the above model for Required Return and put values:

Required Return = (1.6892 / 27) + .03 = .0926 OR 9.26%.

Thanks!
