Answer:
$118.83 per month that Zach must save.
Explanation:
This is a future value annuity as we know the cruise will cost $16500 in 4 years time as estimated by Zach for the cruise.
Fv is the future value for the annuity which is $16500
we also have i the interest rate which is 3.99% monthly
n is the number of periods in which the monthly amount is saved 4 x 12 =48
now we will substitute to the following formula and solve for C the monthly payments that Zach saves for the cruise:
Fv =C [((1+i)^n -1)/ i] now we substitute
$16500 = C[((1+3.99%)^48 -1)/3.99%)] then solve for C
$16500/[(1+3.99%)^48 -1)/3.99%] = C
C = $118.83 that Zach must save per month for 4 years to afford the cruise.

The journal entries are shown below:
On Jan 1, 2014
Unearned compensation Dr. $45,000
To paid in capital in excess of par $35,500
To common stock $9,500
(Being the unearned compensation is recorded)
On Dec 31,2014
Compensation expense Dr. $15,000 ($45,000 ÷ 3 years)
To unearned compensation $15,000
(Being one year compensation became due is recorded)
Answer:
$1.3794
Explanation:
The computation of the projected dividend for the coming year is shown below:
Last year dividend paid = Do
Expected Dividend in Year 1 (D1) = Do ( 1+g) = Do × 1.32
Dividend in Year 2 (D2) = Do ( 1+g)^2 = Do × 1.32^2
Dividend in Year 3 (D3) = Do ( 1+g)^3 = Do × 1.32^3
Dividend in year 4 , (D4) = D3 × (1+g) = Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22
Now the price at year 4 is
P4 = D4 × (1+g) ÷ ( R-g )
= Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22 × (1 + 0.07 ) ÷ ( 0.10 - 0.07 )
= Do × 100.08
Use Gordon Growth Model
The Current Price of Stock is
= D1 ÷ ( 1+ R)^1 +D2 ÷ ( 1+ R)^2 + D3 ÷ ( 1+ R)^3 + D4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4 + P4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4
$78 = Do ( 1.32 ÷ 1.1 + 1.32^2 ÷ 1.1 ^2 + 1.32^3 ÷ 1.1^3 +1.32^3 × 1.22 ÷ 1.1^4 + 100 .08 ÷ 1.1^4)
$78 = Do ( 1.2 +1.44 + 1.728 + 1.9165 + 68.36 )
Do = $1.045
Now
Projected Dividend for Year 1 is
= Do × 1.32
= $1.045 × 1.32
= $1.3794
Answer:
The best future earnings outcome would come from getting the official degree even if you do not attend any classes.
In the labor market, a degree from the world's best university holds great prestige and increases enormously the possibilities of being hired to high-paying jobs. However, you should make sure that you actually take the courses that you are supposed to have learned while "attending".
The other option is worse because while you would easily be able to demonstrate knowledge and competence, few companies would even consider to hire you if you do not hold a degree.
