Assume that you would like to purchase 100 shares of preferred stock that pays an annual dividend of $6.00 per share. However, y

ou have limited resources now, so you cannot afford the purchase price. In fact, the best you can do now is to invest your money in a mutual fund that offers an average return of 6% compounded monthly. Because the preferred stock is riskier, it has an annual rate of return of 12% (assume that this rate will remain constant into the foreseeable future). For you to be able to purchase this stock at the end of 5 years, how much must deposit in your bank account today?

Answer:

$267.1211

Explanation:

return on preference share per unit is $6  , thus at 12% annual rate of return. Initial value of preference shares will be $50 per unit ( $6 divided by 12%).

Total value of preference shares = $50 multiplied by 100 preference shares = $5000

Future value of preference shares = 5000 (1.12)^5  = $8,811.7084

to find the value of money to be deposited to be able to buy the preference shares at the end of 5 yrs.

we work back to get the present value using the mutual fund annual rate

$8811.7084 = pv (1.06)^60  the rate is compounded monthly. Hence we shall compound the return 60 times in 5 years

Bank account money = 8811.7084  divided by 32.9877 = $267.1211

Next week, Mortimer is preparing to go to work for the Illinois department of Child Services. He was surprised when his friends
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The implication is that the Illinois Department of Child Services is a unionized workplace.

Mortimer will derive better benefits that surpass the costs of membership.  He is covered in all collective bargains, even when he resigns his union membership.  Unions negotiate for better working conditions, higher pays, and improved benefits.

When Mortimer has any grievance against the department, the union will also represent him, thereby making his life easier since unions can negotiate better with employers than individual workers.

Mortimer is even lucky to find a job at a unionized workplace because the jobs are not usually advertised as union members easily bring in their relatives and friends to occupy such vacancies.

Explanation:

Most of the disadvantages that Mortimer should complain about unions are disadvantages to the employer and not to him as an individual worker.  For the employer, the union acts as a form of monopoly that can decide whether the workers would work or not.  The unionized workers are not easy to replace with other workers.

What is 9 and 5/6 minus 3 and 3/6​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

9\frac{5}{6} - 3\frac{3}{6} = \frac{38}{6}

Explanation:

Since this is an example of mixed whole numbers and fractions, this are mixed fractions.

Since the denominator is the same (6), we are just going to create a proper fraction out of these mixed fractions by multiplying the denominator with the whole number and adding the numerator. Then, the result becomes the new numerator, while the denominator remains the same.

Therefore, we have:

9\frac{5}{6}  = \frac{59}{6}

3\frac{3}{6} = \frac{21}{6}

So when we subtract these two, we get \frac{38}{6}.

Wiggle Pools has total equity of $358,200 and net income of $47,500. The debt-equity ratio is .68 and the total asset turnover i
Westkost [7]

Answer:

It is 6.58%

Explanation:

Debt-Equity Ratio = Debt/Equity

0.68= Debt/358,200

Debt = 0.68 x 358,200

Debt = $243,576

Total Asset Turnover = Revenue/ Total Asset

Total Assets = Debt + Equity = $243,576+ $358,200=$601,776

1.2= Revenue/601,776

Revenue= 1.2 x 601,776

              =$722,131.20

Profit Margin = Net income/ Revenue x 100%

                       = $47,500/$722,131.20 x100%

                       = 6.58%
