Answer:

The correct answer is $240.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Number of contracts = 4

Troy Number = 100

End price = 1,285.30

Purchase price = 1,284.7

So, we can calculate the profit or loss by using following formula:

Profit / Loss = Number of contracts × Troy number × ( End Price - Purchase price)

By putting the value, we get

Profit / Loss = 4 × 100 × (1285.30 -1284.7)

Profit = $240

Carl Sonntag wanted to compare what proceeds he would receive with a simple interest note versus a simple discount note. Both ha
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The proceeds from the simple discount note is $16380 , while that of simple interest is $19500

Explanation:

Simple discount notes could likened to a bank loan where interest on the loan is taken from the borrowed funds before disbursement to the loan's beneficiary,hence proceeds from such notes is face value of the notes less interest taken in advance.

While on the other hand,the proceeds from simple interest note is par or face value.

The discount or interest  is =8%*$19500=$1560 for one year,but $3120  for two years($1560*2)

The proceeds on the simple discount note =$19500-$3120

                                                                         =$16380

The proceeds on the simple interest note is face value of $19500

Ashley is considering the purchase of a stock that has just paid a dividend of $0.72, today. The dividend is expected to grow at
arlik [135]

Answer:

$10.28

Explanation:

<u>Step 1. Firstly we use the of the The dividend discount model (DDM)</u>

This calculation is: D1 = D0 x (1 + g)

D1 = $0.72 x (1 + 2.8%) = $0.74.

Where

Do = Dividend now

D1 = Dividend in year 1

g = growth

<u>Step 2 Next, using the Gordon Growth Model, </u>

Price per share is found to be D(1) / (r - g)

Price = $0.74 / ( 10% - 2.8%) = $10.28

where:

Do = Dividend now

D1 = Dividend in year 1

g = growth

r = required return

Delicious77 [7]

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Year              Annual dividend paid

   1                                      $1.20

   2                                      $1.12

   3                                      $1.12

   4                                      $14.20

Now,

Year       Annual dividend paid        Present value factor     Present value

   1                              $1.20                          0.84246               1.011

   2                             $1.12                          0.84246               0.7949

   3                             $1.12                          0.59793             0.6696

   4                             $14.20                       0.50373             7.1529

===============================================================

Worth of stock = 1.011 + 0.7949 + 0.6696 + 7.1529

= $9.6284 ≈ $9.63

Note:

Present value factor = [ 1 ÷ (1 + 0.187)ⁿ]
