Answer:

Explanation:

Price is sum of:

1. Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years;

2. Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year based on growth at 5%.

Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years:

PV1 = 3*(1+0.30)*0.8929 = 3.90*0.8929 = $3.482

*0.8929 = 1/1.12

PV2 = 3.90*1.30*0.7972 = 5.07*0.7972 = $4.042

PV3 = 5.07*1.30*0.7118 = 6.591*0.7118 = $4.691

PV4 = 6.591*1.30*0.6355 = 8.5683*0.6355 = $5.445

Total = $17.661

Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year:

Market price of the share at the end = 5th year dividend/(Required rate of return - growth rate)

5th year dividend = $8.5683*(1+growth rate) = $8.5683*(1+0.05) = $9

Market price of the share at the end = $9/(0.12-0.05) = $128.57

Present value of $128.57 is 128.57*0.6355(present value interest factor for year 4) = $81.7

So the price of share is $17.661+$81.7 = $99.37

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$130,000

Explanation:

For determining the additional life insurance required first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Step 1

Total needs = Cash needs + Income needs + Special needs

= $30,000 + $140,000 + $100,000

= $270,000

Step 2

Total assets held = Bank accounts + Retirement plans + Investment accounts

= $20,000 + $30,000 + $40,000

= $90,000

Step 3

Total amount of life = $270,000 - $90,000

= $180,000

and finally

Additional life insurance required =

The Total amount of life - Life insurance provided by the employer

= $180,000 - $50,000

= $130,000

denis23 [38]

Answer:

A buyer would be willing to pay at most $24,000.

Explanation:

There is a 40% chance of getting low quality cars.

Value of high quality car is $30,000.

Value of low quality car is $15,000.

Price of car that buyer will be willing to pay

=40% of lower quality+60% of higher quality

=40% of $15,000+60% of $30,000

=0.4*15,000+0.6*30,000

=$6,000+$18,000

=$24,000

So, the buyers will be willing to pay a maximum value of $24,000.
