A monopoly, unlike a perfectly competitive firm, has some market power. Thus, it can raise its price, within limits, without qua

ntity demanded falling to zero. The main way monopolies retain their market power is through barriers to entry, which prevent other companies from entering monopolized markets and competing for customers. Consider the market for tanzanite. The mines for this blue-purple gemstone, found only in Tanzania, are owned by the local government. Given that no one is allowed into the mines without government permission, the market structure for tanzanite highly resembles that of a monopoly. Which of the following best explains the barriers to entry that exist in this scenario?
A. Exclusive ownership of a necessary resource
B. Legal barriers
C. Increasing returns to scale

SME Company has a debt-equity ratio of .57. Return on assets is 7.9 percent, and total equity is $620,000. a. What is the equity
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

(i) 1.57

(ii) 12.40%

(iii) $76,898.60

Explanation:

Debt-equity ratio = debt/equity

Hence debt= 0.57 equity

= (0.57 × 620000)

= $353,400

Total assets = debt + equity

                     = (353400+620000)

                    = $973400

1. Equity multiplier = Total assets ÷ Equity

                               = $973,400 ÷ 620,000

                               = 1.57

3.  ROA = net income ÷ Total assets

net income = ($973,400 × 0.079)

                    = $76,898.60

2. ROE = net income ÷ Total equity

= $76,898.60 ÷ 620,000

= 12.40%(Approx).

You have assigned the following values to these three firms: Price Upcoming Dividend Growth BetaEstee Lauder $50.00 $1.70 16.50%
satela [25.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

The formula to compute the required rate of return using the CAPM and constant growth model is as follows

Under CAPM

The Required rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - risk-free rate of return)

Constant growth model = Dividend ÷ Price + Growth rate

For Estee lauder,

Under CAPM = 4% + 0.74 × (10% - 4%)

= 4% + 0.74 × 6%

= 4% + 4.44%

= 8.44%

Under the Constant growth model

= $1.70 ÷ $50 + 16.50%

= 19.90%

For Kimco realty,

Under CAPM = 4% + 1.51 × (10% - 4%)

= 4% + 1.51 × 6%

= 4% + 9.06%

= 13.06%

Under the Constant growth model

= $1.68 ÷ $82 + 11%

= 13.05%

For Estee lauder,

Under CAPM = 4% + 1.02× (10% - 4%)

= 4% + 1.02 × 6%

= 4% + 6.12%

= 10.12%

Under the Constant growth model

= $0.60 ÷ $10 + 13%

= 19.00%

Corporation and limited liability (limited partnership) company taxed twice.
alekssr [168]

Option[A] is the correct answer.

Corporation and limited liability (limited partnership) company taxed twice.

Before any earnings may be distributed to shareholders, the corporation must pay income tax at the corporate rate. Any gains that are then dispersed as dividends to shareholders are again taxed at the recipient's individual rate. The company profits are thus subject to two separate income tax rates.

<h3>What is Double Taxation?</h3>

Before any earnings may be distributed to shareholders, the corporation must pay income tax at the corporate rate.
