Answer: <em><u>Developers can spend $55316.9</u></em>

Explanation:

EAR =[e^{Annual percentage rate} -1]\times 100

Effective Annual Rate=(e^{(9/100)} -1)\times 100

Effective Annual Rate% = 9.42

PV_{Ordinary Annuity} = C\times [\frac{(1-(1+\frac{i}{100} )^{-n} )}{(i/100)} ]

where;

C = Cash flow per period

i = interest rate

n = number of payments

PV = 3500\times [\frac{(1-(1+\frac{9.42}{400} )^{-5\times 4} )}{(9.42/400)} ]

PV =  $55316.9

The Nearside Co. just paid a dividend of $1.20 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of
timurjin [86]

Answer:

$20.80 and $29.61

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

Current price is

= Next year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

where,

Next year dividend is

= $1.20 + $1.20 × 4%

= $1.20 + $0.048

= $1.248

So, the current price is

= $1.248 ÷ (10% - 4%)

= $20.80

Now the price in 10 years is

= Next year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

where,

Next year dividend is

= $1.20 × 1.04^10

= $1.20 × 1.4802442849

= $1.7762931419

So, the price in 10 years is

= $1.7762931419  ÷ (10% - 4%)

= $29.61

I am trying to understand the Opportunity cost. Can anyone help me please? I can't seem to get Economics, I really need help. Yo
sesenic [268]
<span>Basically "Opportunity cost" is what you're going to lose (or have a potential to lose) if you chose a different action than what you're presented with. In the example, you're working for $15 an hour, but if you decide instead to skip a pratrice to go to the fair you're losing out of the $15 an hour you'll be paid and have to pay $9 to go to the fair. All total, you're opportunity costs for that will be $24 (fifteen you would have made plus the nine dollar fee.) This is also assuming, of course, they don't fire/dock you for just skipping work.</span>
