Answer:

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Explanation:

WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt

16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%

16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = 28.9556%

Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)

25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)

Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%

ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)

Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE

12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)*  1.4/(45%*9)

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Which of the following correctly orders the investments from LOWER risk to HIGHER risk?
Yuliya22 [10]
Here is the correct order of investments from Lower Risk to Higher Risk: <span> Treasury bond − Diversified mutual fund – Stock

Treasury bond is released by Government, so unless your country went bankrupt, it is safe to assume that you will get the investment back.

Diversified mutual fund puts your eggs in a lot of baskets So in case one of your investment fail, the others could still support your overall investments

Since the stock is a single entity and really fluctuative, it is considered as the most dangerous type of investment.

Suppose that the market price for a bottle of vitamins is $2.54 and that at that price the total market quantity demanded is 105
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:please refer to the explanation section

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, The amount that each firm must produce is not given or the Quantity/demand equation that each firm faces is not given. We use a firm's quantity/demand equation to calculate how much each firm should produce and then work out the number of firms that should exist in the industry.

let us assume quantity produced by each firm is given by this equation;

Q = 1900 + 15000Price

We need to plug the Price of $2.54 per unit Vitamin Bottle to the quantity equation. Q = 1900 + 15000(2.54) = 40 000

each firm must produce 40 000 units

Number of firms that should exist = Total Market Quantity/Firms Quantity Number of firms that should exist = 1055 560 000/40 000

Number of firms that should exist = 26389

When the price is $2.54, with each firm Producing 40000 units, 26389 firms should exist in the market to cover the total Market Quantity of 1055 560 000.

The question may provide you with the Quantity that each firm must produce, in that case you simple divide total market quantity by the firm's quantity to find number of firm that should exist.

When you are given quantity equations you use the price to work out quantity produced by each firm and then Divide the Market Quantity by Firm's quantity to find number of firms that should exist
