Answer:

The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

The Company is distributing 30% of its earnings as dividends

Therefore, company is retaining = 100-30 = 70% of its earnings

Growth = Retention ratio * ROE = 0.7*0.14 = 9.8%

Earning = 19.6 million

hence, Paid as dividends = 19.6*0.3 = $5.88 million

The Number of shares outstanding = 2.8 million

hence, Dividend per share = Total dividends / number of shares outstanding = 5.88/2.8 = $2.1

Current stock price = $84

Therefore, to calculate the required rate of return on the stock we would have to use the following formula:

Price of stock = Current dividend*(1+growth)/(r-growth), where r is required rate of return

84 = 2.1*(1.098)/(r-0.098)

40 = 1.098/(r-0.098)

r - 0.098 = 0.02745

r = 0.02745+0.098 = 0.12545

The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

Answer:

The correct answer is Points of interaction.

Explanation:

The term touchpoint refers to all the points of contact between the client and a brand “that imply an interaction with a human need, at a specific time and place” (Risdon, 2013).

If there is an interaction then there is also an exchange of value between the individual and the organization. And professionals in Customer Experience have to understand what kind of value flows. We must ensure that the perceived value is greater than the cost.

On the other hand, the fact that an interaction occurs before a specific human need tells us that we must know what drives it. The need is what marks the nature of the interaction. In other words, the design of an experience changes radically depending on the needs involved.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Mcmurtry Corporation sells a product for $110 per unit. The product's current sales are 12,200 units and its break-even sales are 10,614 units.

<u>The margin of safety is the number of units or amount of dollars that provide genuine profit to the company. It is the "margin" that gives room to try new strategies</u>.

It is calculated using the following formula:

Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level

Margin of safety ratio=  (12,200 - 10,614) / 12,200

Margin of safety ratio= 0.13=13%
