Answer:
The value of the Share of Zeke after the new Expansion is $25.
Explanation:
As there was no growth in the dividend before change, Price of the share from a stable dividend payment can be calculated by following formula.
Price = Dividend / Required rate of return
As we have the share price and the dividend amount we need to calculate the required rate of return.
Required rate of return = Dividend / Price
Placing value in the formula
Required rate of return = $2.50 / $25.00 = 0.1 = 10%
After New Expansion
Dividend = $1.50
Growth rate = 4%
The share price can be calculated by the dividend growth formula, as follow
Price of share = Dividend / (Rate of return - growth rate)
Price of share = $1.50 / (10% - 4%)
Price of share = $1.50 / 6%
Price of share = $25
Answer:
a.
Explanation:
Every customer matters, not only should a company focus on her seemingly high-value customers but also on their seemingly low-value customers.
Hence to ensure the retention of their customers and not lose them to competitors, the company should use the customers' data record to provide special retention offers for them to continue as customers.
Every dollar counts, and no customer can be said to remain forever or leave soon, therefore each of these customers should be treated equally to maximize profit for the company both now and in the long run.
We will use the formula; A = Pe^(r*t)
Given;
A = 17,000
r = 5.1%
t = 14
Solution;A = Pe^(r*t) Compounding continously
17,000 = Pe^(.051*14)
17,000/e^(.714) = P
$8324.59 = P
The money that has been invested at 5.1% interest and compounded contiounsly to have 17,000 after 14 years is $8324.59
Answer:
b. 0.67
Explanation:
UCL = 1 + 0.10
= 1.10 inch
LCL = 1 - 0.10
= 0.9 inch
standard deviation = 0.005 inch
mean = 1 inch
Cpk
= min[(UCL - mean)/(3*standard deviation) , (mean - LCL)/(3*standard deviation))]
= min[(1.10 - 1)/(3*0.05) , (1 - 0.9)/(3*0.05))]
= min[0.67 , 0.67]
= 0.67
Therefore, Theprocess capability index (Cpk) if the long-run process mean is 1 inch is 0.67
Coca-Cola acquired its bottlers and created a national vertically integrated business operation in 2010. After spending 12.3 billion USD to acquire Coca-Cola Enterprises, its largest bottling partner, it reversed course in 2015 and sold off all its bottling operations. This is an example of a <u>failed diversification effort</u>.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Diversification efforts are taken by the organizations to achieve desired outcomes but sometimes they fail in it. The following are the reason for failure of diversification effort:
- failing to integrate acquisitions
- unable to understand how the acquired organization’s assets would fit with their own lines of business
- paying high premium for the target's common stock
- not acting in best interest of shareholders
The diversification strategy is adopted by many organizations to develop its business. In the above scenario, Coca-Cola Enterprises adopted diversification effort but failed in it.
