Answer:

PV of the stock today = $115.83

Explanation:

We will use the discounted cash flows approach to calculate the price of the stock today. This approach values the stock by accumulating the present value of all the expected future cash flows from the stock/asset.

As the preferred stock pays a constant dividend after equal intervals of time and for an indefinite period, it can also be treated as a perpetuity. Thus, the formula for the present value of perpetuity will be used to calculate the price of the stock at year 10 that we will discount back to today.

Present value of perpetuity = Cash flow  / expected rate of return

PV of stock at Year 10 = 10 / 0.052

PV of stock at Year 10 = 192.3076923

The value of the today will be,

PV of the stock today = 192.3076923 / (1+0.052)^10

PV of the stock today = $115.83

The price elasticity of demand for a good is likely to be less elastic​ __________.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

if a change in the price of the good brings about a much smaller change in the quantity demanded for the good.

Explanation:

<em>The price elasticity of demand is a measure of the change in the demand for a good in relation to a change in the price of the same good. </em>Mathematically, the price elasticity of demand for a product is represented as:

Price elasticity = change in the quantity demanded/change in price

The value of price elasticity of demand ranges from 0 to infinity. The price elasticity of demand is

  • relatively inelastic when the value is less than 1,
  • unitary elastic when it is equal to 1,
  • relatively elastic when it is greater than 1,
  • perfectly inelastic when it is equal to 0, and
  • perfectly elastic when the value is infinity.

<u>Less elastic price elasticity of demand is equivalent to relatively inelastic price elasticity. This thus means that the price elasticity of demand is less than 1; a percentage change in the price of the good brings about a disproportionately smaller percentage change in the quantity demanded for the good.</u>

If the tax multiplier is minus1.5 and a​ $200 billion tax increase is​ implemented, what is the change in​ gdp, holding all else

If total utility has reached a maximum level, and assuming that diminishing marginal utility already applies, then what will hap

Marginal utility of the additional units will turn negative

Explanation:

As total utility has reached a maximum level, adding additional units of the same product will generate the total utility to decrease thus, the marginal utility of this additional products is negative as they made the utility of the consumer to decrease.

The diminish return theory state that:

The units increase utility at a decreasing rate  and then, they reach a maximum of utility afterwhihc, additional units do not generate utility, they decrease it
