Confidential information that only individuals working in an organization know about the company is known as insider information.

This information is not usually disclosed to the public and a company's management team may or may not choose to make this information public at a later date.

Using such information to buy and sell shares of a company is usually considered illegal and is a punishable offence under law.

2. A fancy steakhouse in a shopping mall offers a 20% discount to employees of other stores in the mall, provided that they eat

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Different aspects to be considered:

First of all, the steakhouse probably has the most clients between 6 to 8 PM, that is why discounts are not offered during that time.

Second, the discount is offered to only a certain group, employees of other stores, because it is a promotional strategy aimed at increasing the number of clients during slow hours. Since this is a fancy place, it is probably expensive also. Most employees would not actually eat there except on a special event, e.g. birthday or anniversary dinner. Even with the 20% discount, not many of them will actually eat there.

This is something nice to offer, since a shopping mall is a close environment where a lot of different people work together, even if very few will actually take the offer. It is normal that different stores have distinct promotions for the employees that work there. It is similar to offering perks that help create a better working environment between the employees of different stores.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

net present value is

$228,652.29-$200,000.00

=$28,652.29.

Explanation:

Net cashflows

Year 1= 100000

Year 2= 90000

Year 3= 95000 (75000+ 20000)

Totals= 285000

Present value at 12%

Formula for present value=

1/(1+r)^n

where r= interest rate

n= number of years

Year 1=1/(1+0.12)^1 =0.8929

Year 2=1/(1+0.12)^2= 0.7972

Year 3=1/(1+0.12)^3 =0.7118

Present value of net cash flows =

Present value × net cash flows.

Year 1= 0.8929 × 100000= $89,285.71

Year 2=0.7972 ×90000= $71,747.45

Year 3=0.7118×95000= $67,619.12

Totals = $228,652.29

Amount invested= $(200,000.00)

Net present value (NPV) is referred to as the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time. Net Present Value is used in capital budgeting and investment planning to analyze the profitability of a projected investment or project.

Therefore, net present value is

$228,652.29-$200,000.00

=$28,652.29.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$45.76

Explanation:

Next dividend = Dividend just paid * (1 + Dividend growth rate) = $3.71 * (1 + 0.036) = $3.84356

Using the formula for the dividend discount model, we can calculate he price per share of the company's stock as follows:

Stock price = Next dividend / (Required return - Dividend growth rate) = $3.84356 / (0.12 - 0.036) = $45.76

Therefore, the price per share of the company's stock is $45.76.
