The future earnings, dividends, and common stock price of Carpetto Technologies Inc. are expected to grow 7% per year. Carpetto'

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Dividend growth rate (g) = 7% per year

Common Stock value (P0) = $23 per share

Dividend just paid (or) Last dividend (D0) = $2

Current year dividend to pay (D1) = $2.14

(a) Using the DCF approach, what is its cost of common equity?

Cost of Common Equity (R) = [D1 / P0] +g

Cost of Common Equity (R) = [$2.14 / $23] + 0.07

Cost of Common Equity (R) = 0.1630 (or) 16.30%

Cost of Common Equity (R) = 16.30%

(b) If the firm’s beta is 1.6, the risk-free rate is 9%, and the average return on the market is 13%, what will be the firm’s cost of common equity using the CAPM approach?

Beta = 1.6

Risk-free rate (Rf) = 9%

Return on the Market (RM) = 13%

Calculating Firm’s Cost of Common Equity using the CAPM approach:

According to CAPM approach:

Cost of common equity (RE) = [Rf + β (RM – Rf)]

Cost of common equity (RE) = [9% + 1.6 (13% - 9%)]

Cost of common equity (RE) = [9% + 1.6 (4%)]

Cost of common equity (RE) = [0.09 + 1.6 (0.04)]

Cost of common equity (RE) = 0.154 (or) 15.4%

Cost of common equity (RE) = 15.4%

(c) If the firm’s bonds earn a return of 12%, based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, what will be rs?

rs= Bond rate + Risk premium

rs= 12% + 4%

rs= 16%

d. The two approaches bond-yield-plus-risk premium approach and CAPM both has lower cost of equity than the DCF method. The firm’s cost of equity estimated to be 15.9% which is the average of all the three methods.

Why is the safety of principal the primary consideration in a savings plan?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

In simple words, When it comes to conserving money, the most crucial factor to remember is the protection principle. When you save enough money beyond what you'll need for short-term objectives and emergencies, you'll have money to invest. Professionals advise saving one to two years' worth of account value in a contingency savings.

Thus, protecting principal is the core focus of the managers in savings plan.

What would happen if a supplier charged more than the market price

Yuri [45]

Equilibrium is the intersect of the two curves. The curves show you how much the producers supply and how much the consumers demand at each possible price.

The demand curves shows that the higher the price is, the less the consumers demand. That's obvious—the consumer wants something, but not at any price. He's only willing to pay so much. If the price goes higher and higher, less and less people want to buy the good.

The higher the price is, the more the producers can supply. This is because some producers are able to produce at lower costs; they're better and more efficient than other producers. Other producers, who produce at higher costs, would go bankrupt if they tried to produce at lower prices. But when the price goes up, even the worse producers, who have higher costs, are able to make profit. So, more producers supply to the market.

What happens now, when the price gets lower than the equlibrium? As you can see from the chart, producers would supply less than consumers would be willing to consume at that particular price. There would be SHORTAGE. This happens when the goverment sets price ceilings (like on gas in the 30's). An opposite situation happens when there is price floor—for example minimum wage (because wages are prices too; prices of labor). In that case, there is surplus—in case of minimum wage that means surplus of labor (unemployment).

But when the markets are free to set the price, they will quickly establish equlibrium again. The producers will see that there is a shortage. They'll realize they can set higher prices and make bigger profits. They can't set higher price than the equilibrium though, because there would be surplus and they would have their warehouses stuffed with goods noone wants to buy at that price.

This is the Answer Am 100% sure.

Why did the Thibodaux workers go on strike? Was the strike successful? What accounts for its success or lack of success

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Thibodaux workers went on strike to protest against sugar cane plantations in four parishes which are Lafourche, Terrebonne, St. Mary, and Assumption.

No, the strike was not successful.

The unscheduled return to work by some workers before the end of the strike, makes it unsuccessful. The aftermath of the strike resulted to violence leading to death of many black workers and their families, as well injuries to many others.
