Answer:

a. the earnings per share is $2.28

b. the price-earnings ratio is 5.96 times

c. the dividends per share is $0.25

d. the dividend yield is 1.84%

Explanation:

a. the earnings per share

Earning per share is the net earning of the company against each outstanding share.

Earning per share = Net Income / Numbers of Outstanding shares

Earning per share = $502,000 / ($5,500,000/$25)

Earning per share = $502,000 / 220,000 = $2.28

b. the price-earnings ratio

Price earning ratio determines the impact of net income on market value of the share.

Price earning Ratio = Market Pice of stock / Earning per share

Price earning Ratio = $13.60 / $2.28

Price earning Ratio = 5.96

c. the dividends per share

Dividend per share is the value of dividend paid to each outstanding common share.

Dividend per share = Dividend declared / Numbers of outstanding shares

Dividend per share = $55,000 / 220,000 shares

Dividend per share = $0.25 per share

d. the dividend yield.

Dividend yield is the ratio of dividend per share and Market price per share.

Dividend Yield = Dividend Per share / Market price per share

Dividend Yield = $0.25 / $13.60 = 0.0184 = 1.84%

In 2013, there were approximately 155 million people in the labor force and the unemployment rate was 7.4 percent. If the unempl

Marianna [84]

Answer:

(a) 3.7

(b) 3.7

Explanation:

The unemployment rate is calculated as the ration of unemployed workers over the labor force. The labor force is the total number of employed plus unemployed workers:

$Unemployment\,Rate=\frac{Unemployed\,Workers}{Labor\,Force}=\frac{Unemployed\,Workers}{Employed\,Workers+Unemployed\,Workers}$

Then if there were 155 million people in the labor force and 7.4% where unemployed that means that 11.47 million people where unemployed

$0.074=\frac{Unemployed\,Workers}{155}$

$Unemployed\,Workers=0.074*155=11.47$

If unemployment rate would have been 5% we have

$Unemployed\,Workers=0.05*155=7.75$

That means that 3.72 million fewer unemployed workers. Since Labor Force is the sum of unemployed and employed workers. The reduction in unemployment implies that they were now employed .

At the current prices of goods X and Y, the quantity demanded of good X is 10 units, and the quantity demanded of good Y is 5 un

damaskus [11]

Answer:

When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6

Explanation:

The cross elasticity of goods x and y is 0.6, which means that a one percent increase in price of good y will increase the demand for good x by 0.6%, this means that x and y are substitute goods, as when the price of y increases people tend to buy more of x.

When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6

Avicorp has a $15.5 million debt issue outstanding, with a 6.3% coupon rate. The debt has semi-annual coupons, the next coupon i

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) Pre-tax cost of debt is 8.45%

b) After tax cost of debt is 5.07%

Explanation:

a) Given:

Debt issue outstanding = $15.5 million

Semi-annual coupon rate = 0.063 / 2 = 0.0315

Assumed par value (FV) = $1,000

Coupon payment (pmt) = 0.0315 × 1000 = $31.5

Current bond price (PV) = 92% of $1,000 = $920

Time period (nper) = 5 × 2 = 10 periods

Calculate semi-annual rate using spreadsheet function =Rate(nper,pmt,PV,FV)

Semi-annual rate = 4.14%

Pmt and FV are negative as they are cash outflows.

YTM = 4.14 × 2 = 8.28%

Effective annual rate = $(1+\frac{Rate}{compounding\ periods}) ^{2} -1$

= $(1+\frac{0.0828}{2}) ^{2} -1$

= 0.0845 or 8.45%

b) Tax rate is 40%

After tax cost of debt = Pre tax cost of debt × (1 - 0.4)

= 0.0845 × 0.6

= 0.0507 or 5.07%
