Answer:

The Answer is as follows;

Explanation:

Dividend on preferred stocks=$10*7.5%=$.075

Transaction Costs=$1

Total financing Cost=$1.75

RGDP in the United States has grown at an average annual rate of 3% in the last couple of decades. If the RGDP annual growth rat
Natali [406]

Explanation:

i=interest rate

X=current rate

2X = double current rate

n = number of years

Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:

2X = X(1+i)^n

simplify by cancelling out X

(1+i)^n = 2

substitute i = 3%

(1.03)^n =2

take log

n*log(1.03)  = log(2)

n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years

Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,

n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years

So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth)  sooner

What is goodwill in a business sale and why is it amortized in the business financial statements
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Goodwill arises when is a business is acquired as a going concern. It is an intangible asset of a business. Goodwill represents the value of a company's customer base, its location, any patents, and the brand name. It consists of the value of suppliers, customers, and employee relationships that facilitates the smooth running of the business.

The value of goodwill is the difference between the purchase price and the net cost of its tangible and other intangible assets of a business. Amortization of goodwill means spreading the cost of goodwill to several financial years.

Goodwill is amortized because the business benefits from the goodwill for many years.  In other words, the expenditure on goodwill will profit the company in more than one financial year. As per the matching principle, expenses and incomes should be recognized in the period they occur. As benefits will be enjoyed in many years, the expenses should also be spread in similar years.
