Answer:
For 100 shares, the mount that should be paid = $1766
Explanation:
We have to calculate the price of the stock in the 4th year because the investor cannot afford the stock in another 3 years.
Price of the stock = Do + g / ke - g
Dividend in current year = $1.2
Dividend after 1 year = 1.2 +2.5% (1.2)= 1.23
Dividend after 2 years = 1.23 + 2.5%(1.23) = 1.26075
Dividend after 3 years = 1.26075 + 2.5%(1.26) = 1.29227
Price in 4th year = 1.29227 + 2.5% / (0.10 - 0.025)
=1.29227 + 2.5%(1.29227)/0.075
= 17.66
Therefore, for 100 shares, the mount that should be paid = 17.66 * 100 = $1766
Answer:
The answer is option C. She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Explanation:
She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.
Investors who hold onto their bonds until maturity are assured of to receive the face value of the bond. In our case, if Andrea would have chosen to hold her $5,000 bond investment for 10 years, she would have been assured the bonds face value, however since she prefers to use the cash to work abroad, she can sell the bonds immediately.
Selling a bond before it's maturity date can either be beneficial or detrimental. This depends on the value of the bond at the time of sale. If at the time of sale the bond would have gained value, then the bond will sell at a higher price than when it was bought. On the other hand, if the bond at the time of sale has lost value, then the bond will sell at a lower price than the price which it was bought.
In our case, the best option for Andrea would be to sell the bonds immediately, since she really needs the cash. If it happens that at the point at which she sells the bonds they will have gained value, then she will have more than $5,000 cash, however, if at the point she decides to sell the bonds they will have lost value, then she will have less than $5,000 depending on how much value was lost from the time she bought the bonds and the time she sold the bonds.
The correct answer to 1 is the ability to easily raise financial capital.
A sole proprietor is limited to the cash that they personally have, so this is a disadvantage when they need additional capital for the business.
The correct answer to 2 is that their personal property can be used to pay debts.
A partnership is personally responsible for the debts of the company. If the company owes money and cannot pay it, the partners that own the business are personally responsible.
The correct answer to 3 is the shareholders.
The shareholders are the owners of the corporation. They vote for a board of directors who in turn oversee the operation of the corporation.
Answer:
The annual rate of return is -2.83%
Explanation:
The annual rate can be calculated from the formula FV=PV*(1+r)^N
Where FV is the future value of the investment
PV is the amount invested which is $276,500
N is 9 years
213600=276,500*(1+r)^9
213600/276500=(1+r)^9
divide index on both sides by 9
(213600/276500)^1/9=1+r
(213600/276500)^1/9-1=r
r=-0.02827109
r=-2.83%
Hence the annual rate of return on the investment is -2.83%, which means the investment depleted by 2.83% from initial invested amount of $276,5000 to $213,600 after nine years
