Answer:

(a) Percentage return = -$14.20 ÷ $92 = -15.43%

(b) Dividend Yield = $2.30 ÷ $92 = 2.50%

Explanation:

Initial price per share= $92.00

Ending share price = $75.50

Capital loss = $75.50 - $92.00  = -$16.50

Dividend = $2.30

Net return = -$16.50 + $2.30 = -$14.20

(a) Percentage return = (-$14.20 ÷ $92) × 100% = -15.43%

(b) Dividend Yield = ($2.30 ÷ $92) × 100% = 2.50%

How do stocks and bonds differ?
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Stocks may help you protect your money from inflation while bonds may be more susceptible to losing their value over time due to inflation.

Explanation:

Stocks are high-risk investments that can provide profits overnight or can swipe investors' accounts in a matter of seconds. When it comes to inflation, they do not have to deal too much with it. On the other hand, bonds are less risky, almost safe investment vehicles that give investors profits based on the fixed interest rate that the bond pays and is collected by year. Inflation erodes the purchasing power of bonds.

A city filed eminent domain proceedings in order to obtain 40 beach houses fronting a particularly attractive stretch of shoreli
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

No, because the planned sale to the private developer to increase the tourist trade qualifies as a public use.

Explanation:

Eminent domain is the provision that gives a government the ability to take a private property and convert it to public use. The owner of the property is however required to be compensated adequately.

In this instance the city filed eminent domain proceedings in order to obtain 40 beach houses as part of an elaborate plan to increase the city's tourist trade and revive the local economy.

Since this is for public gain the city has a legal right to file for an eminent domain here.

So the owners will most likely not prevail in this situation
