Answer: 10.2%

Explanation:

The formula to solve this question will be: Re =D1/P0(1 - float) + g

where,

D1 = $2.00

P0 = $40

Float = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

g = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

We will then solve Myers' cost of new external equity by slotting the values into the formula written. This will now be:

Re =D1/P0(1 - float) + g

= 2/40(1 - 0.04) + 0.05

= 2/(40 × 0.96) + 0.05

= 2/38.4 + 0.05

= 0.052 + 0.05

= 0.1020

= 10.2%

Myers' cost of new external equity will be 10.2%

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

correct option is b. $3,679,800

Explanation:

given data

offering = 130,000 shares

offer price = $38

underwriter spread = 8 percent

administrative costs = $865,000

solution

we get here Net proceeds from sale that is express as

Net proceeds = Gross proceeds - Underwriter's spread - Administrative costs ....................1

here Gross proceeds from sale is = offering share × offer price

Gross proceeds from sale is  = 130000 × $38

Gross proceeds from sale is  = $49,40,000

and Underwriter's spread will be offering share × offer price  × underwriter spread %

Underwriter's spread = $49,40,000 × 8%

Underwriter's spread = $3,95,200

so Net proceeds  will be

Net proceeds = $49,40,000 - $3,95,200 - $865,000

Net proceeds = $3,679,800

so correct option is b. $3,679,800

motikmotik

Answer:

B. they involve the use of expert judgement do develop forecasts

Explanation:

A time series is a series of events that is spaced equally in time. It is a statistical technique used to identify a time based trend of events and them make forecast using data from the trend/time series.

Time series requires certain processes which include discovering of a pattern in the historical data, projection of the historical data into the future, assumption that the pattern will remain the same(constant) as the time goes by, etc.

In time series method, since historical data is the point of reference for making a forecast, no expert judgements is required to develop forecasts. This is because once the data of the series from the past has been taken and a trend/pattern has been identified, that becomes the basis for future forecasts.

Cheers.
