Answer:
r = 0.099974 or 9.9974% rounded off to 10.00%
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of DDM we calculate the price of a stock today which is expected to pay a dividend which increases at a constant rate through out. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price under this model is,
P0 = D1 / r - g
Where,
- r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
- g is the constant growth rate in dividends
Plugging in the available values in the formula, we calculate r to be,
74.11 = 4.63 / (r - 0.0375)
74.11 * (r - 0.0375) = 4.63
74.11r - 2.779125 = 4.63
74.11r = 4.63 + 2.779125
r = 7.409125 / 74.11
r = 0.099974 or 9.9974% rounded off to 10.00%
Answer:
the depreciation expense at the end of the first year, December 31 is $ 8,250
Explanation:
Straight line Method of Depreciation Charges the same amount of depreciation over the useful life of the asset.
Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Useful Life

= $11,000
<u>Apportionment of Depreciation Charge</u>
<em>From April 5 to December 13 there are 9 months</em>
Therefore depreciation for the year is apportioned as follows :
Depreciation Charge = 9/12× $11,000
= $ 8,250

When central banks or the Federal Reserve wants to control money supply in the economy it uses various tools that either mop up or increase money supply to the economy.
