Answer: B dominant designs

Explanation:

The dominant design in a product class is, by definition, the one that wins the allegiance of the market place, the one that competitors and innovators must adhere to if they hope to command significant market. A dominant design is often the norm within the market which creates difficulties in other similar products to compete for market share. This often creates a monopoly over alternatives, whereby the only means of competing is to imitate or expand upon the concept.

You buy a share of The Ludwig Corporation stock for $21.70. You expect it to pay dividends of $1.00, $1.16, and $1.3456 in Years
Radda [10]

Answer:

21%

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of share = $21.70

Expect to pay dividend in year 1 = $1.00

Expect to pay dividend in year 2 = $1.16

Expect to pay dividend in year 3 = $1.3456

Expected selling price of share at the end of year 3 = $28.15

Growth rate in Dividends:

= [(Dividend in Year 2 - Dividend in Year 1) ÷ Dividend in Year 1] × 100

= [($1.16 - $1.00) ÷ $1.00] × 100

= 0.16 × 100

= 16%

Expected dividend yield :

= (Dividend in year 1 ÷ Cost of Share ) × 100

= (1.00 ÷ $21.70) × 100

= 0.05 × 100

= 5%

Stock's expected total rate of return:

=  Expected Dividend Yield + Growth rate in Dividends

= 5% + 16%

= 21%
