Answer:
a. Project A requires an up-front expenditure of $1,000,000 and generates a net present value of $3,200.
Explanation:
a.
The company should accept project A because it provides a positive net present value of $3,200 that is the highest among all the projects.
b.
When the IRR of a project is lower than the required rate of return of the project, it will generate the negative net present value because at IRR the net present value of the project will be zero and at a higher rate than IRR it will be negative.
c.
The project with a profitability index of less than 1 generates a negative NPV because the present value of future cash flows is less than the initial cash outflow.
d.
Project D also generates a positive net present value but it is lower than project A. So, after comparing the results we will choose the project with higher NPV.
The returns of a capital amount to a compensation rate for depositing the money, to calculate these returns an interest rate is used by which the deposited capital is multiplied, in this case the rate is 4%.
As the money distributed is only the product of interest, then that money is the result of multiplying the capital by the interest rate, to obtain how much money Mr. Jefferson contributed, the reverse process will have to be done.
Answers
let <em>C</em> be the capital, then
:

The capital contributed by Mr. Jefferson was <em>$4,262,500</em>
Answer:
(a) $4.08
(b) $51.03
Explanation:
Constant growth rate for earnings:
= (EPS for any year ÷ EPS for the previous year) - 1
= (8.40 ÷ 8.00) - 1
= 0.05
= 5%
(a) EPS for 2016 = EPS for 2015 × (1 + 5%)
= 9.72 × 1.05
= $10.21
Dividend for 2016 = 40% × EPS for 2016
= 40% × 10.206
= $4.08
(b) Stock Price at the beginning of 2016:
= Dividend for 2016 ÷ (Required rate of return - Constant growth rate)
= 4.0824 ÷ (0.13 - 0.05)
= $51.03
