Answer:

The expected/required rate of return is 13.8125%.

Explanation:

The stock is a constant growth stock as the dividends are expected to grow constantly forever. The constant dividend growth model of DDM is used to calculate the price of such a stock today. As we already know the price, we will use the formula of the constant growth model to determine the required rate of return. The formula for constant growth model is:

P0 or Price today = D1  /  r - g

Plugging in the available known values,

16  =  1.25  /  (r - 0.06)

16 * (r - 0.06)  =  1.25

16r  -  0.96  =  1.25

16r = 1.25 + 0.96

r = 2.21 / 16

r = 0.138125  or  13.8125%

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Quinn values the apple pie at $4 and the chocolate cake at $10 = total $14

  1. since one "half" will only be chocolate, he needs $7 out of chocolate = 7/10 of the chocolate cake.
  2. the other "half" will include 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $10) + $4 = $3 + $4 = $7

If Dustin chooses the second "half" he will receive 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $4) + $6 = $1.20 + $6 = $7.20

The owner of a bicycle repair shop forecasts revenues of $188,000 a year. Variable costs will be $57,000, and rental costs for t
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Revenues=$188,000

Less: Variable Costs=$57,000

Less: Rentals=$37,000

Earnings before depreciation and tax=$94,000

Less: Depreciation =$17,000

Earnings before tax=$77,000

Less: Tax40%=$30,800

Net Income=$46,200

a) Dollars in minus dollars out

Dollars in = Revenues = $188,000

Dollars out = Variable cost + Rentals + Tax = $57,000 + $37,000 + $30,800 = $124,800

Operating cash flow = $188,000 - $124,800 = $63,200

b) Adjusted accounting profits

Operating cash flow = Net income + Depreciation = $46,200 + $17,000 = $63,200

c) Add back depreciation tax shield

Operating cash flow = Earnings before depreciation and tax x (1 - tax rate) + Depreciation tax shield

or, Operating cash flow = $94,000 x (1 - 0.40) + $17,000 x 40% = $63,200

Yes, all the results are same.
