Answer:
$ 1,781.53
Explanation:
The future value of the 5-year CD can be determined by using the future value formula stated below:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV is the future value which is expected future amount after 5 years
PV is the initial amount used in purchasing the CD i.e $1500
r is the rate of return on the CD on an annual basis which is 3.5%
n is the number of years the investment would last which is 5 years
FV=$1500*(1+3.5%)^5
FV=$1500*1.187686306
FV=$ 1,781.53

Calculation for the liability that should be reported for vacation pay
Using this formula
Liability=Vacation weeks*Compensation averaged per week for Year 1

Liability=20 weeks × $1,000 per week
Liability = $20,000
Therefore the amount of liability that should be reported for vacation pay will be $20,000
Answer
a) Gordon's Constant Growth model : P0 = D1 / (r-g)
r = 3% =0.03
, g= -7% = -0.07
, D0 = $5.1
D1 = D0*(1+g)
D1 = 5.1*(1-0.07)
D1 = $4.743
P0 = 4.743/(0.03- (-0.07))
P0 = 4.743/0.10
P0 = $47.43
So, Stock M should sell at a price of $47.43 today
b) Price 8 years from now
==> P8 = D9/(r-g)
P8 = D0*(1+g)^9/(r-g)
P8 = 5.1* (1-0.07)^9 / (0.03- (-0.07))
P8 = 5.1*0.52041108298 / (0.03- (-0.07))
P8 = 2.65410
P8 = $26.54
c) Investor may want to buy the stock today for the Dividends. If the dividends paid are high enough, the present value of the dividends is also high and may more than compensate the fall in stock price. This type of stocks work and give cash flows like a project where the initial cashflows are higher and later cashflows are less because of market factors.
