Answer:
$77,217
$11,289
Explanation:
Fist we will calculate the present value of $10,000 payment
A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity. The value of the annuity is also determined by the present value of annuity payment.
Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow
PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]
Where
P = Annual payment = $10,000
r = rate of return = 10% / 2 = 5%
n = number of period = 5 years x 2 semiannual payments per year = 10 payments
PV of annuity = $10,000 x [ ( 1- ( 1+ 0.05 )^-10 ) / 0.05 ]
PV of Annuity = $77,217
Now we will use the discounting method to calculate the present value of lump sum payment of $20,000
Present value = Future value x Present value factor
PV = FV x ( 1 + r )^-n
PV = $20,000 x ( 1 + 0.1 )^-6
PV = $11,289
Answer:
C.105,500 units
Explanation:
Equivalent unit of production is the quantity of work done in the manufacturing / production department. It also includes the completed percentage portion of the units in work in process.
Units complete and transferred = Beginning units + Additions - uncompleted units = 10,000 units + 100,0000 units - 15,000 units = 95,000 units
Equivalent Units = Units complete and transferred + ( Closing units x percentage completion )
Equivalent Units = 95,000 + ( 15,000 x 70% )
Equivalent Units = 95,000 + 10,500
Equivalent Units = 105,500
Answer:
$28.57
Explanation:
Current price = D1/(Required return-Growth rate)
D1 (Next dividend) = $2
Required return = 10% = 0.1
Growth rate = 3% = 0.03
Current price = $2/(0.1-0.03)
Current price = $2 / 0.07
Current price = $28.57143
Current price = $28.57
Hence, i will be willing to pay $28.57 for a share of Merck stock.
Answer:
The correct answer is: expressed in the prices of a base year.
Explanation:
Real GDP is an inflation-adjusted measure to calculate changes in economic output. It calculates the value of final goods and services produced in an economy in a year expressed in the prices of a base year.
Real GDP does not include changes in the price of products as it is calculated at constant prices.
Nominal GDP, on the other hand, is calculated on the basis of current prices. It includes changes in prices and is not inflation-adjusted. That is why real GDP is preferred over nominal GDP.
