Answer:
The answer is $56.68
Explanation:
Solution
We recall that:
The firm paid a dividend of =$7.80
The projected growth of dividends is at a rate = 9.0%
The annual return = 24.0%
Now,
V = ($7.80 * (1.09)/(.24 - 0.9)
= (8.502)/(.24-0.9)
= (8.502) * (-0.66)
= $56.68
Therefore, this would be the most we would pay for the stock. If we paid less than that, our return would be above the 24%.
HDI includes life expectancy, education and per capita income indicator, which is a measurement that is used to rank countries, therefore suggesting that when the lifespan of the country is high the country's score of HDI is also high and thus the education level is high and the GDP per capita is also high as well.
Options :
A)net present value of the $25,000.
B)future value of the $25,000.
C)internal rate of the return on the $25,000.
D)present value of $25,000.
Answer: B)future value of the $25,000.
Explanation: The Smith's calculation and subsequent result which yielded $31,000 refers to the future value of $25,000. The initial $25000 is the present value of the amount held. If the initial amount is saved or deposited over a certain number of years in an account which yields a certain rate of interest per annum and is compounded either on a monthly, yearly, quarterly or semiannual basis as the case may be, in this scenario above, the interest is called mounded annually. This initial amount will grow and yield an amount which is greater than the present deposit. This is called the future value of the initial deposit.
