Answer:

The current dividend is $5.23 per share

Explanation:

This return is divided equally between dividend yield and capital gains yield, in other words 7%each (14%/2)

Expected return=current dividend*(1+growth rate)/share price +growth rate

note the growth rate also represents capital gains yield

0.14=CD*(1+0.07)/80+0.07

0.14-0.07=CD*(1.07)/80

0.07*80=CD*1.07

5.6=CD*1.07

CD=5.6/1.07

CD=$5.23

Ultimately the current dividend is $5,23 per share a shown by solving the equation for current dividend above

Beatrice invests $1,410 in an account that pays 3 percent simple interest. How much more could she have earned over a 4-year per
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

$7.77

Explanation:

The answer would be the difference between compound and simple interest

Simple interest = principal x time x interest

$1,410 x 0.03 x 4 = $169.20

Compound interest = future value - present value

future value = Principal ( 1 + interest)^n

$1,410 ( 1.03)^4 = $1586.96

$1586.96 -$1,410 = $176.97

Difference = $176.97 - $169.20 = $7.77

Slim made a single deposit of $5,000 in an account that pays 7.2% in 2015. What equal-sized annual withdrawals can Slim make fro
evablogger [386]

Answer:

annual withdrawals is  $1,393.87

Explanation:

given data

Amount Deposited = $5,000

Annual Interest Rate = 7.2%

First withdrawal =  2020

last withdrawal = 2025

solution

we consider equal sized annual withdrawals = x

so we can say that Amount Deposited amount will be as

$5,000 = \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^5} + \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^6} + \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^7} + \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^8} + \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^9} + \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^{10}}       ..........1

we take common here \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^{4}}

so

$5,000 = \frac{x}{(1+0.72)^{4}} \times ( \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^1} + \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^2} + \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^3} + \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^4} + \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^5} + \frac{1}{(1+0.72)^{6}} )      

solve it we get

x = $1,393.87  

so that annual withdrawals is  $1,393.87

rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is "5.4% and 15,23,500".

Explanation:

Calculating the capital cost:

=(1-\frac{1}{1.46})\times 10.91\% \times (1-39\%)+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times 4.84\% \\\\=(\frac{1.46-1}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{100-39}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\ =(\frac{0.46}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{61}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\=\frac{306.1346}{14600}+\frac{4.84}{146} \\\\=  0.021+0.033 \\\\ =0.054\\\\= 5.4\%

Maximum amount to be spent

=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{(1.054)^7})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{1.44})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-0.7)\\\\=277,000 \times 100\times 0.055\\\\=\$15,23,500\\

: Jane and Sarah are both investors. Jane has invested thousands of dollars into one small company. Sarah has invested hundreds
Alja [10]

Answer:

Sarah has invested in sole proprietorship while Jane has invested in corporations

Explanation:

Sole proprietorship is owned and run by a single owner who is legally obligated for all business assets and liabilities. Since Sarah has invested thousands of dollars in one company, it looks like she has invested in sole proprietorship in which she is the owner.

Corporation is run by group of people who are not legally obligated for the assets and liabilities of the corporation. People can invest in more than one corporation as they are open for public offer. These investors earn dividends based on the earnings earned by the corporations So, possibly Jane has invested hundreds of dollars in different large companies.
