Answer:
The answer is: Stock markets reflect all available information about the value of stocks
Explanation:
Efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is an investment theory about stock markets where the price of stocks is always the fair market value of the stocks. It argues that it is impossible for someone to determine when stocks are either undervalued or overvalued. So all the technical and fundamental analysis techniques are useless.
From an accounting standpoint, stockholders' investment and revenues increase the assets of the company without adding to the liabilities. Therefore according to the equation (A = L + E), equity must increase.
Similarly, issuing dividends and paying expenses pays cash out of the company, which decreases assets without changing liabilities. Therefore equity must decrease.
Another way to think of it is: what contributes to the company's profit and/or value, and what decreases these things? Well, revenues and people investing in the company are good (and therefore good for stockholders), and giving cash out and paying expenses are costs to the company (and therefore decrease value for stockholders).
Answer:
7.86%
Explanation:
The computation of the capital gain yield on the investment is shown below:
As we know that
Capital gains yield is
= (Selling price per share × number of shares purchased) ÷ (Stock value) - 1
= $3,500 ÷ $3,245 - 1
= 0.07858
= 7.86%
We simply applied the above formula so that the capital gain yield could come and the same is to be considered
Answer:
$65,333
Explanation:
As we know,
Sales price = Variable cost + Contribution cost
Sales price = Variable cost ratio + Contribution margin ratio
100% = 30% + Contribution
Contribution = 100% - 30%
Contribution = 70%
Fixed cost = $19,600
Break even sales = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio
Break even sales = $19,600 / 30%
Break even sales = $19,600 / 0.3
Break even sales = $65,333.
