Answer:

The answer is $11.24 million Explanation:

Using the formula

Present worth = x/(1+R/100)∧n

R = 10%

Year 2012

2.40/(1+10/100)∧1

= 2.40/(1+0.1)∧1

= 2.40/(1.1)∧1

2.40/1.1

= 2.18

Year 2013

2.90/(1+10/100)∧2

= 2.90/(1+0.1)∧2

= 2.90/(1.1)∧2

2.90/1.21

= 2.396

Year 2014

3.60/(1+10/100)∧3

= 3.60/(1+0.1)∧3

= 3.60/(1.1 )∧3

3.60/1.331

= 2.70

Year 2015

To determine the present value

2+3.80/(1+10/100)∧4

= 5.8/(1+0.1)∧4

5.8/(1.1)∧4

5.8/1.4641

= 3.96

Therefore the present value, add together the value from year 1 to year 4

2.18 + 2.396 + 2.70 + 3.96

= 11.236

= 11.24 Approximately

Therefore the present value is $11.24 millions

lesya692 [45]

Answer: Capital structure                            

Explanation: In simple words, capital structure refers to the proportion of different securities that an organisation uses as a combination to fund its operations. In other words, the amount of debt and equity in total capital in hand of the business is termed as capital structure.

Capital structure is of high importance to the investors as it directly impacts the liquidity and profitability of the organisation.

The ability of a company to bear its short term obligation is called liquidity and the ability to generate profit with given amount of resources is called profitability.

he value of a share of common stock depends on the cash flows it is expected to provide, and those flows consist of two elements
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Using the Gordon Growth Model,  we can adequately demonstrate that the dividend and price of a share are both components of the cashflow to be considered in share valuation.

Price per share is found to be D(1) / (r - g)  

where:

Do = Dividend now

D1 = Dividend in year 1

g = growth

r = required return

So we see that the market price of a share which determines the market capitalization of a company is predicted by a growth in dividends. So the benefits of holding a share will not only depend on how much the share is sold now as against how much it can be sold in the future (in order to make a gain), but also how much you can be earning until such sale occurs.

Pat can either drive to work, which takes half an hour and uses $1.50 worth of gas, or take the bus, which takes an hour and cos
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more

Explanation:

Marginal cost is the additional cost generated by producing an additional unit of output.

Marginal cost of taking the bus = 1 / 2 = 0.50

Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good

Marginal utility per good = marginal utility / price of the good

Pat should take the action that would yield him the highest utility given the marginal cost

So,pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more
