Answer:

The correct answer is 10.04%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

P_{0} = Dividend paid ÷ Current yield

P_{0} = $2.10 ÷ 0.048 = 43.75

Now we calculate growth.

Growth (g) = (Next year dividend - Current yield ) ÷ Current yield

Growth (g) = ( $2.205 - $2.10 ) ÷ $2.10

g = 0.05

So, we can calculate the rate of return by using following formula:

P_{0} = Next year dividend  ÷ ( r - g)

By putting value, we get

43.75 = $2.205 ÷ ( r - 0.05 )

r = 10.04%

XYZ stock price and dividend history are as follows: YearBeginning-of-Year PriceDividend Paid at Year-End2015 $130 $5 2016 144 5
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Arithmetic mean = 3.67%

Geometric mean = 3.02%

Explanation:

The following sorted data are given in the question:

Year           Beginning-of-Year Price         Dividend Paid at Year-End

2015                            $130                                            $5

2016                              144                                               5

2017                              120                                               5

2018                              125                                               5

Therefore, we have:

Arithmetic average return = Sum of returns/ number of years ………....….. (1)

Geometric average return = n * ((1+r1)*(1+r2)*(1+r3)…(1+rn)^(1/n) - 1 .……….. (2)

Where;

n = years 1, 2, 3….

r1, r2, r3… are the returns for year 1, 2, 3….

Return for each year = ((Current year Beginning-of-Year Price – Previous year Beginning-of-Year Price) + dividend) / Previous year Beginning-of-Year Price .................... (3)

Using equation (3), we have:

2016 Return = ((144 - 130) + 5) /130 = 0.146153846153846

2017 Return = ((120 - 144) + 5) /159 = -0.119496855345912

2018 Return = ((125 - 120) + 5) /120 = 0.0833333333333333

Using equation (1), we have:

Arithmetic mean = (2016 Return + 2017 Return + 2018 Return) / 3 = (0.1461538461538460 - 0.1194968553459120 + 0.0833333333333333) / 3 = 0.0367, or 3.67%.

Using equation (2), we have:

Geometric mean = ((1 + 2016 Return) * (1 + 2017 Return) * (1 + 2018 Return))^(1/3) - 1 = ((1 + 0.146153846153846) * (1 - 0.119496855345912) * (1 + 0.0833333333333333))^(1/3) - 1 = 0.0302, or 3.02%

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is C ,$15,300

Explanation:

GDP is a short form of Gross Domestic Product which is an indicator of total goods produced in an economy in a period of one year.

Using the expenditure method,GDP van be computed using the below formula:

GDP=C+I+G+(X-M)

C is the consumption in the economy which is $9000

I is the level of investment at $3,000

G is the government expenditure of $3,500

X is the export of $2,500

M is the import of $2,700

GDP=$9000+$3000+$3500+($2500-$2700)

GDP=$15,300

Hence the GDP is $15,300
