Answer:

$41.66

Explanation:

Let us assume the dividend in year n be denoted by Dn and the Stock price by Pn

Given that,

D0 = $1.50

Now

Growth rate for next 3 years

g1 = 15%

D1 = D0 × (1 + g1)

    = 1.50 × (1 + 0.15)

   = 1.725

D2 = D1 × (1 + g1)

= 1.725 × (1 + 0.15)

= 1.984

D3 = D2 × (1 + g1)

= 1.984 × (1 + 0.15)

= 2.282

Subsequent Growth rate = g2 = 4%

Now  

D4 = D3 × (1 + g2)

     = 2.282 × (1 + 0.04)

     = 2.373

So, According to Gordon's Growth Rate,

P3 = D4 ÷(r - g2)

P3 = 2.373 ÷ (0.09 - 0.04)

    = $47.46

Now  

Value of Stock now  is

= P0

= D1 ÷ (1 + r) + D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2 + D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3 + P3 ÷ (1 + r )^3

= 1.725 ÷ (1 + 0.09) + 1.984 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^2 + 2.282 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3 + 47.46 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^3

= $41.66

Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.
Arturiano [62]

Answer: $8.81

Explanation:

To solve this, add the present values of the dividends from years 3, 4 and 5 and then add the present value of the terminal value of the stock at year 5.

Year 3 dividend = $0.50

Year 4 dividend = 0.50 * (1 + 49%) = $0.745

Year 5 dividend = 0.745 * 1.49 = $1.11005

= Dividend in year 3 / (1 + required rate of return)³ + Dividend in year 4 / (1 + required rate of return)⁴ + Dividend in year 5 / (1 + required rate of return)⁵ +   (Dividend in year 5 * (1 + growth rate) / ( required rate of return - growth rate ) ) / (1 + required rate of return)⁵

= 0.5 / 1.16³ + 0.745/1.16⁴ + 1.11005/1.16⁵ + ( 1.11005 / (16% - 9%)) / 1.16⁵

= $8.81

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The Sammy and Monica’s medical expense deduction for regular income tax purposes is $17,750.

Explanation:

For the purpose of regular income tax, the deduction pertaining to medical expenses are available up to the extent it exceeds 10% of AGI.

                                  = 27500 - 9.750

                                  = $17,750

Therefore, The Sammy and Monica’s medical expense deduction for regular income tax purposes is $17,750.

A firm in a competitive industry has a total cost function of TC = 0.2 Q2 – 5Q + 30, whosecorresponding marginal cost curve is M
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

TC=0.2Q2 - 5Q + 30,

MC=0.4Q - 5.

Equilibrium condition

MC=P

0.4Q - 5 = 6

0.4Q = 11

Q = 11/.4

=27.5

Profit = TR - TC

        =27.5*6 - .2(27.5)2 -5(27.5)+30

       =165 -756.25 -137.5 +30

       = - 698.5

Firm is incurring loss

Firm will continue to produce as long as it is able to recover AVC

AVC =0.2Q -5

=0.2(27.5) -5

=5.5 -5

=0.5

Hence firm will continue to produce
