Last year mike bought 100 shares of dallas corporation common stock for $53 per share. during the year he received dividends of
Pepsi [2]
Mike brought 100 shares costing $53 each.
Total costs of shares= 100*53
=$5300

He got dividends of $1.45 per share. A dividend is money that is earnt back from a share.
Total dividend amount = 1.45*100
=$145

I'm assuming that Mike sold his shares at the end of the year. He sells for $60 each.
Total sales amount=60*100
=$6000

The rate of return in this instance can be defined as the amount of money made back from a share.

Rate of return= total earnings/ costs

Total costs= $5300
Total earnings=$6145

6145/5300=1.1594
=15.9%

Hope this helps! :)

Pools purchased $ 60 comma 000 of 14​% DMH bonds on January​ 1, 2018​, at a price of 159.5 when the market rate of interest was
Damm [24]

Answer:

Initial purchase of the bonds on 1st January 2016

Assuming that $60,000 bonds includes 600 bonds with face value of $100 each

Now, Lamar insurance purchased these bonds at a discount price of $159.5 each bond.

So, the total amount invested by Lamar insurance = 600 bonds * $159.5 = $95,700

Therefore journal entry for recording purchase of bonds on 1st January 2016 will be,

Investments in bonds A/c Debit $95,700

To, Bank/Cash A/c credit $95,700

Note: The bonds have been issues at a discount and it seems to be reasonable owing to the fact that the market interest rate is 6% , whereas the bonds have a interest rate of 14%.

Interest entry on the first interest payment date of 1st July 2016

Interest amount to be received on 1st July 2016 = ($60,000 *14%)*6/12 = $4.200

Since interest is paid semi annually, therefore we have taken interest for 6 months.

Journal entry will be:

Bank A/c Debit $4,200

To, Interest on bonds A/c Credit $4,200

You just deposited $2,500 in a bank account that pays a 4.0% nominal interest rate, compounded quarterly. If you also add anothe
choli [55]

Answer:

The value of the investment would be $16,035.87 in 12 quarters from now

Explanation:

The value of $2,500 after four quarters can be determined with the below formula:

FV=PV*(1+r/t)^N*t

FV is the future value of the investment, the unknown

PV, the present value of the investment is the amount invested.

r is the rate of return of 4%

t is the number of times interest is paid annually,4 times in this case

After the first four quarters, the worth of the investment is shown thus:

FV=$2500*(1+4%/4)^1*4

FV=$2500*(1+1%)^4

FV=$2,601.51

After that $5000 was added to $2,601.51 making $7,601.51 which was reinvested to yield the below:

FV=$7,601.51*(1+ in 4%/4)^1*4

FV=$7,601.51*(1+1%)^4

FV=$7910.16

Then $7,500  was added to $7,910.16 which turns $15,410.16

FV=$15,410.16*(1+4%/4)^1*4

FV=$15,410.16*(1+1%)^4

FV=$16,035.87

Estimate the liquid density (g/cm3) of propane at 298 K and 10 bar. Compare the price per kilogram of propane to the price of re
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Density of propane = 17.8 g/L

Propane is more priced than gasoline

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature, T = 298 K

Pressure, P = 10 bar = 0.987 × 10 = 9.87 atm

now,

Molar mass of propane, M = 44.1 g/mol

From ideal gas law

⇒ PV = nRT

here,

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

also,

Density, D = \frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{Volume(V)}}

or

V = \frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{D}}

and,

nM = mass

thus,

V = \frac{\textup{nM}}{\textup{D}}

substituting in the ideal gas relation

we have

P = \frac{\textup{DRT}}{\textup{M}}

or

D = \frac{\textup{PM}}{\textup{RT}}

or

D = \frac{9.87\times44.1}{0.0821\times298}

or

D = 17.8 g/L

Now,

1 gallon = 3.78 Liter

Therefore,

5 gallon = 5 × 3.78 Liter = 18.9 Liter

Thus,

mass of 5 gallon propane = Volume × Density

= 18.9 Liter × 17.8 g/L

= 336.42 g

or

= 0.336 kg

also it is given that Price of 5 gallon propane i.e 0.336 kg = $30

Therefore,

Price per kg = \frac{30}{0.336}

= $89.28

and,

Mass of 5 gallons i.e 18.9 Liter gasoline = Density × Volume

= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 Liter

also,

1 L = 1000 cm³

thus,

= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 × 1000 cm³

= 13078.8 g

or

= 13.078 kg

Therefore,

Price per kg of gasoline = \frac{\$30}{13.078}

= $2.29

hence, propane is more priced than gasoline
