Answer: 8.16%

Explanation:

The Effective Annual Yield is the interest rate that converts an interest rate that compounds more than once a year to an annual rate.

Ket [755]

Answer:

I would use survey research to determine the general opinion, positive or negative, on the feature from the general public.  

Explanation:

When conducting any survey research, it is important to sample a wide variety of people. In this case, you would want to survey the general population, not just former Mercedes customers.  

I would design a focus group survey with a series of questions where participants can choose from a range, 0-5, on how much they agree with a certain statement.

At the beginning of the survey, participants would read a brief paragraph explaining the features on the new car before continuing to the part where they record their responses.

Once the survey is conducted, the data can be analyzed. If the majority, say 70%, of all people surveyed agree strongly that a self driving car is a good idea and that the world is ready then you can assume that the general population is in fact ready.

Alisiya [41]

Answer: 13%

Explanation: The cost of equity can be defined as the return a company pays to its shareholders in return of bearing the risk of investing in the company.

As per the given figures in the question we can say that cost of equity can be determined with the help of dividend discount model, which can be equated as follows :-

k_{e}= \frac{D1}{P0}+G

where,

ke = cost of equity

D1 = expected dividend

P0 = current price

G = growth rate

So, putting the values into equation we get :-

k_{e}= \frac{\$2}{\$25}+5\%

               = 13%
