Answer:

B

Explanation:

In this case, Joe thinks (subjective opinion) that the wealthiest 10% of the US population "should" be taxed and Fred thinks (subjective opinion) that everyone "should" be taxed.

Artemon [7]

Answer:

The bonds are guaranteed as to principal and interest payments by the US government.

Explanation:

According to NASAA's Statement of Policy on Unethical or Dishonest Business Practices of Broker-Dealers and Agents, a broker can say US government bonds are guaranteed on principal and interest payments.

However if inflation sets in and interest rates rises there is no guarantee from the government that interest paid on the bonds will match the higher interest rate.

So legally this statement is correct, even though the investor can lose money as a result of higher interest rate in the future.

It announces that it plans to pay dividends of $1 per share exactly three years from now and $2 per share exactly four years fro
kkurt [141]

The Question is incomplete.

The complete question is as follows:

It announces that it plans to pay dividends of $1 per share exactly three years from now and $2 per share exactly four years from now. From year 5 onwards, dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 10% per year. The company pays no dividends in years one and two. The risk-free rate is 5%, the company's beta is 1.5 and the expected return on the market is 11%. Calculate the price of this stock today

Answer:

Price of stock =  $34.42

Explanation:

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.</em>

Required rate of return

Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 5%, Rm- 11%, β- 1.5

Ke = 5% + 1.5× (11-5)%

   = 14%

Present value of Dividends(PV)

Year                                                      PV

3                       $1.00, × (1.14^(-3) =   0.6749

4                        $2.00× 1.14^(-4) =  1.18416

<em>5 and beyond</em>

<em>This will be done in two (2) steps as follows:</em>

PV in year 4 = (2 × 1.10) /(0.14-0.1) = 55

PV in year 0 = 55× 1.14^(-4) = 32.56

Price of stock

=  0.6749  +  1.18416 + 32.56

=  $34.423

Shane wants to invest money in a 6% CD account that compounds semiannually. Shane would like the account to have a balance of $1
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Amount deposit = $118,411.4 (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Future amount = $150,000

Rate of interest = 6% compounds semiannual

Number of year = 4 year

Find:

Amount deposit

Computation:

Compounds semiannual

So,

Rate of interest = 6% / 2 = 0.03

Time taken = 4 x 2 = 8 times

So,

A = P[1+r]ⁿ

150,000 = p[1+0.03]⁸

150,000 = p[1.03]⁸

150,000 = p[1.26677]

p = 150,000 / 1.26677

p = 118,411.393

Amount deposit = $118,411.4 (Approx.)

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Individual                   Cost                                Shares to be enjoyed

Mabel                      $10,000                            10000 / 150000 =  6.67%

Gertrude                 $20000                            20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron                      $30000                            30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber                      $40000                            40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You                          $50000                            50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

Explanation:

peaked preferences

Most preferred value to spend :

Mabel = $10,000

Gertrude = $20,000

Myron = $30,000

Wilber = $40,000

you = $50,000

cost of Condo = $150,000

<u>Implementing a Uniform rule mechanism to allocate costs and shares </u>

The uniform rule ; ∑ j∈I Uj (p) = Ω.

where Ω = fixed amount of resource

hence the summation of all allotment should = Ω ( $150,000 )

Number of friends = 5

cost of condo  = $150,000

If divide equally each person will have to pay ; $150,000 / 5 = $30,000

Total money to be spent by friends = 10,000 + 20,000 + 30,000 + 40,000 + 50,000  = $150,000

Individual                   Cost                                shares to be enjoyed

Mabel                      $10,000                            10000 / 150000 =  6.67∑%

Gertrude                 $20000                            20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron                      $30000                            30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber                      $40000                            40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You                          $50000                            50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

∑shares ≈ 100% ( 150,000 )
