Answer:

$37.05

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

last dividend, D0 = $1.55

Dividend growth rate, g = 1.5% = 0.015

growth rate after 2 year = 8.0% = 0.08

Required rate of return , r= 12% = 0.12

Now,

Year 1 dividend =  $1.55 × ( 1 + 0.015 ) = $1.57325

Year 2 dividend = $1.57325 × ( 1 + 0.015 ) = $1.5968

Stock price after year 2 = [ $1.5968 × ( 1 + 0.08) ] ÷ (0.12 - 0.08)

= $43.11

Therefore,

The current stock price = amounts discounted back to the present at the required rate of return

= ( $1.57325 ÷ 1.12 ) + ( 1.5968 ÷ 1.12² ) + ( $43.11 ÷ 1.12² )

= $37.05

In the case discussed, the Supreme Court held that the trademark for Coca-Cola was valid and banned another company from using a
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The Supreme Court ruled that the name Coke was so well known around the world, that it is effectively a common term for the trademarked Coca Cola. If other companies try to use similar terms like Koke for other types of products, e.g. bakery items, there is a risk that the Coca Cola company would be negatively affected by that product's image since consumers might associate Koke directly to Coca Cola.

It doesn't matter if the products were low quality or not, the courts cannot determine that, what matters is that the use of the term may negatively impact another company.

Aaron purchased footballs from Matthew for $370. Matthew had purchased the footballs from Tom by providing Tom with a bad check.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The principle in Law 'Nemo dat quod non habet' states that an individual connot give what he does not have

Indeed Tom can rescind the contract with Matthew as he possesses voidable title to the balls

Explanation:

Until consideration has moved from Matthew to Tom the validity of the agreement/Contract remains inconclusive.

Considering his Account is not funded means he has no valid title to the Balls, he is merely in possession of the Balls but not the Owner.

Tom can sue demanding a return of the Balls irrespective of Matthew having sold them to Aaron.

Another illustration could be given of a thief who sells off a property. Inspite of the Buyer being unaware, because the thief has a voidable title it makes the transaction invalid.
