Complete Question:
BenchMark, Inc., just paid a dividend of $3.45 on its stock. The growth rate in dividends is expected to be a constant 5 percent per year indefinitely. Investors require a return of 13 percent on the stock for the first three years, a return of 11 percent for the next three years, and then a return of 9 percent thereafter. What is the current share price for the stock.
Answer:
BenchMark, Inc.
The current share price for the stock is:
$43.13
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Dividend per share = $3.45
Growth rate = 5%
Investors' required rate of return = 13%
Stock value = Dividend per share / (Required Rate of Return – Dividend Growth Rate)
= $3.45/(0.13 - 0.05)
= $43.13
b) We can calculate BenchMark's current share price, by dividing the dividend per share by the investors' required rate of return after subtracting the growth rate from the required rate of return.
Answer:
67%
Explanation:
Money supply = Money multiplier * Deposit worth
3 = Money multiplier * 2
Money multiplier = 3/2
Money multiplier = 1.5
Now, Money multiplier = 1 / Reserve ratio
1.5 = 1 / Reserve ratio
Reserve ratio = 1/1.5
Reserve ratio = 0.6667
Reserve ratio = 67%
So, the percent of deposits the banks hold as reserves is 67%
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": Mortgage payments.
Explanation:
Net Operating Income or NOI reflects income after operating expenses deducted but before income taxes and interest are deducted. If the result is a positive value it is called <em>Net Operating Income</em>. If the figure is negative, it is referred to as <em>Net Operating Loss</em>.
Net operating income is often used to calculate real estate income, such as residential properties or commercial properties. <em>NOI is calculated by determining the Gross Operating Income (Gross potential income minus vacancy and credit loss) and subtracting the operating expenses (maintenance, fees, and insurance).
</em>
<em>
</em>
Thus, <em>mortgage payments are not considered in the calculation of the NOI.</em>
Answer:
$33,700 (Favorable)
Explanation:
Note: Figures are not inputted. The missing figures have been figured out as below.
"<em>Nexus industries uses a standard costing system to apply manufacturing costs to its production process. In May nexus anticipated 2700 units with fixed manufacturing overhead costs allocated at $8.40 per direct labor hour with a standard of 2.5 direct labor hours per unit. In May, actual production was 3400 units and actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost were $23000. What was nexus fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance in May</em>?"
Solution:
Budgeted fixed overhead costs = Units * Direct labor cost * Standard Direct Labor hours per unit
= 2,700 units * $8.40 * 2.5
= 2,700 units * 21
= $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual fixed overhead cost - Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs
When Actual fixed overhead = $23,000
, Budgeted fixed overhead costs = $56,700
Fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance = $23,000 - $56,700
= $33,700 (Favorable)
.
