Hi-Tek is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 9 years, because the firm needs to plow

back its earnings to fuel growth. The company plans to pay a $6 per share dividend in 10 years (that is, at t = 10) and will increase the dividend by 4 percent per year thereafter. What is the current share price if the required return on this stock is 14 percent?

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $16.83

Explanation:

The current price per share can be estimated using constant growth model of  the DDM. The price per share can be calculated using the following formula,

P0 = D1 / r - g

To calculate the price today, we use the dividend expected for the next period. Thus, using the dividend that will be paid at t=11 or D11, we can calculate the price of the stock at t=10. We further need to discount this price using the required rate of return for 10 years to calculate the price of the stock today.

P10 = 6 * (1+0.04)  /  (0.14 - 0.04)

P10 = $62.4

The price of the stock today will be,

P0 = 62.4 / (1.14)^10

P0 = $16.83

Answer:

Current share price = $18.45

Explanation:

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of a stock . According to this model, the value of a stock is the sum of the present values of the future dividends  discounted at the required rate of return.</em>

The share price would be determined using the dividend valuation model as follows:

P = Do×(1+g)/(ke-g)

P- price , Ke- cost of equity, g- growth rate in dividend

P-?  g- 4%, Ke- 14%, D(1+g) = future dividend

Price in year 9 = 6/(0.14-0.04)

                         =$60

Price today

To calculate the price today, the price in year 9 would be discounted at the rate of 14% per annum.

Price now = 60 ×  (1.14)^(-9)

                = $18.45

Alla [95]

The formula to calculate the price of the stock is attached.

Price today = 2.1 * (1+0.08) / (1+0.11)  +  2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) / (1+0.11)^2  +  

2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) * (1+0.04) / (1+0.11)^3  +  

[(2.1 * (1+0.08) * (1+0.06) * (1+0.04) * (1+0.02)) / (0.11 - 0.02)] / (1+0.11)^3

Price today = $26.54

1. Which of the following is NOT a general characteristic of a service? A. Production and consumption are simultaneous. B. The s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

B. The service can be transported

Explanation:

Service relates to providing an intangible form of work which is performed for others to yield a benefit or satisfy a want. An important aspect of a service being, it is intangible or something which cannot be touched or felt.

For example, service provided by a doctor or services provided by a waiter at a hotel. Services are consumed, the moment they are produced. For instance, services of a waiter arise when a customer enters the hotel and a want for the service is created.

Services cannot be resold as for instance the receiver performs the same service to another, the provider would change.

As services are intangible, they cannot be stored since they arise only when a want arises and are consumed immediately.

Thus, the correct option is B. The service can be transported.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

$14,000

Explanation:

Company X                                               Company Y

cost per equipment $75,000                  cost per equipment $65,000

sales price $105,000                                sales price $91,000

Both companies sold one unit and they exchanged clients in order to reduce shipping cost:

company X income = $105,000 (selling price) - $75,000 (COGS) + $14,000 (money received from company Y) = $44,000

company Y's income = $91,000 (selling price) - $65,000 (COGS) - $14,000 (money given to company X) = $12,000

This exchange resulted in company X's income increasing by $14,000, while company Y's income decreased by $14,000
