Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -1.81.

Explanation:

At price level $9 the quantity demanded is 250.

At the price level $8, the quantity demanded is 300.

The price elasticity of demand will be  

= \frac{Change\ in\ quantity\ demanded}{Change\ in\ price}

= \frac{\frac{Q2-Q1}{Q1} }{\frac{P2-P1}{P1} }

= \frac{\frac{300-250}{250} }{\frac{8-9}{9} }

= \frac{\frac{50}{250} }{\frac{-1}{9} }

= \frac{0.2}{-0.11}

= -1.81

kifflom [539]

Answer:

The price of the stock today=$560

Explanation:

We can use the expression for calculating the required rate of return to calculate the price of the stock today:

RRR=(EDP/SP)+DGR

where;

RRR=required rate of return

EDP=expected dividend payment

SP=share price

DGR=dividend growth rate

In our case:

RRR=13%=13/100=0.13

EDP=$2.80 per share

SP=unknown

DGR=20% and 8%, the average DGR=(20+5)/2=12.5%=0.125

replacing in the original expression;

0.13=(2.8/SP)+0.125

2.8/SP=0.13-0.125

2.8/SP=0.005

SP=2.8/0.005

SP=$560

The price of the stock today=$560
