Answer:
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
Option c is the correct answer
Explanation:
Using the two stage growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula to calculate the price of the stock today is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- g1 is the initial growth rate
- g2 is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2* (1+0.2) / (1+0.1) + 2 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^2 + 2 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^3
+ 2 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^4 + 2 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^5 +
[(2 * (1+0.2)^5 * (1+0.04) / (0.1 - 0.04)) / (1+0.1)^5]
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
Answer:
Option B, IRR is 14.42%
Explanation:
The IRR is the rate of return that equates the cost of the project to the present value of cash flows receivable from the project in future.
Using an excel approach, the formula formula IRR is given as:
=irr(values)
The values in this case are
-$1300 in year 0
$450 in year 1
$450 in year two
$450 in year 3
$450 in year 4
The irr gives 14.42% as shown in the spreadsheet attached
The cost of the investment of the investment project of $1300 equals the present values of its cash flows at 14.42% rate of return
Answer:
secondary data.
Explanation:
Market research can be defined as a strategic technique which typically involves the process of identifying, acquiring and analyzing informations about a business. It involves the use of product test, surveys, questionnaire, focus groups, interviews, etc.
Secondary market research can be defined as a method designed to determine the demographics of a particular target market.
A secondary data can be defined as any form of data that has been obtained or collected earlier by someone else through primary sources for their own purpose and made readily available for other researchers to use. Thus, a secondary data is a type of data that has been previously obtained or collected.
In this scenario, the type of information the marketing team was using is referred to as secondary data because it looked to the Internet to find industry trends and at the market for eyewear products, which uses the same technology that is used in manufacturing its self-darkening windshield.
In conclusion, a secondary data is typically reliant or based on the primary source of information and as such it isn't a first hand experience.
