Answer:
The current stock price is $13.60
Explanation:
D1 = $0.53
D2 = $0.58
D3 = $0.73
D4 = $1.03
Growth rate, g = 3.60%
Required return, r = 10.00%
D5 = D4 * (1 + g)
D5 = $1.03 * 1.036
D5 = $1.06708
P4 = D5 / (r - g)
P4 = $1.06708 / (0.10 - 0.036)
P4 = $16.673125
P0 = $0.53/1.10 + $0.58/1.10^2 + $0.73/1.10^3 + $1.03/1.10^4 + $16.673125/1.10^4
P0 = $13.60
So, current stock price is $13.60
Answer:
Total Stockholders' equity was affected.
Explanation:
Stock dividend refers to distributing shares free of cost among the existing shareholders. Such a dividend does not result in resources flowing out of the entity but merely reassign amounts from retained earnings to other equity accounts. Thus, such a dividend does not affect the total equity of the stockholders. This can be seen through the following entry,
Retained Earnings $1,800,000 Dr
Common Stock, at par $1,200,000 Cr
Paid in Capital in excess
of par, Common Stock $600,000 Cr
The above transaction shows that we just redistributed the reserves by reducing retained earning by the value of stock dividend 1800000 [( 800000*0.15) * $15] and adding it to the Common Stock 1200000 [(800000*0.15) * 10] and to paid in capital in excess of par 600000 [(800000*0.15) * 5].
PHASE 1: Accumulation
This period begins when you enter the workforce and begin setting aside funds for later in your life, and ends when you actually retire. If your employer offers 401(k), 403(b), or 457(b) plans, have you signed up and are you contributing the maximum allowed? Did you know that the "new normal" requires retirement savings rates for most Americans to exceed 10 percent? If self-employed, are you shortchanging yourself on Social Security in order to reap tax deductions?
PHASE 2: Pre-Retirement
This phase occurs during the final years of the accumulation phase and should begin when you reach 50 years old or are 15 years away from retiring, whichever happens first. Now is the time to get your plan in place, making sure your finances are lined up correctly for retirement day so nothing will be left to chance. If you work for a company with a benefits specialist, arrange an appointment to become informed about the various ways you can convert your employer retirement savings into a stream of income or an IRA. Consider using a tool known as "scenario planning." Start learning about Social Security and your options for beginning to receive retirement benefits. Familiarize yourself with the basics of Medicare.
PHASE 3: Early-Retirement
This phase lasts from the day you retire until you are 70 years old. (For those who do not plan to retire until well into their 70s, some tasks in this phase may occur later.) A key purpose of this phase is to create a clear communication channel with your family so information can be shared, questions asked and answered, and decisions made in a calm, supportive way. It's also the time to assess how well your finances are working now that you are using your retirement savings. Fine-tune your income and expense projections, taking into consideration how you will meet minimum distribution requirements from your tax-deferred accounts.
PHASE 4: Mid-Retirement
This phase begins at age 70 and lasts as long as you are able-bodied and high-functioning. Despite your good health, begin looking at what steps you would like your family to take should your condition decline significantly. In most cases your ability to make all your own decisions, care for yourself, engage with the world on your terms, and manage your affairs does not vanish in a split second. It takes courage to dive into a conversation about giving up and transferring control.
PHASE 5: Late-Retirement
This phase begins when your health has taken a turn for the worse and there is little likelihood of it being fully restored. You require significant help to function day to day. The hope is that by this point all the planning done in prior years makes this transition as manageable and life-affirming as possible.
Answer:
Cash account in the amount of $10,100
Explanation:
The journal entry to be recorded for the receipt of payment is as:
Cash A/c.............................................Dr $10,100
Note receivable A/c...................Cr $10,000
Interest Revenue A/c..................Cr $100
Being recoded the receipt of payment
As payment is received so asset is increasing and any increase in asset is debited. Therefore, cash account is debited. And the note receivable got decrease will be credited and the interest revenue is also credited.
Computation of interest revenue is as:
Interest revenue = Amount × % of note × Days / Number of days in a year
= $10,000 × 6% × 60 / 360
= $100
Note: Assume 360 days in a year
