The government has total control in a command economy, all production, investment, prices and incomes are determined by the government. A command economy is also known as a communist society because business owners do not have any control over their businesses. In a command economy, there are risks/disadvantages of running operations this way because there is a lack of competition and efficiency. When the government controls everything, there is less competition because pricing is set by the government. There is also less efficiency due to them waiting on the government to make their decisions.

Answer:

Do =  $2.00

D1= Do(1+g)1 =  $2(1+0.2)1 = $2.40

D2= Do(1+g)2 = $2(1+0.2)2 = $2.88

D3= Do(1+g)3 = $2(1+0.2)3 = $3.456

D4= Do(1+g)4 = $2(1+0.2)4 = $4.1472

D5= Do(1+g)5 = $2(1+0.2)5 = $4.97664

PHASE 1

V1 = D1/1+ke + D2/(1+ke)2 + D3/(1+ke)3 +D4/(1+ke)4 + D5/(1+ke)5

V1 = 2.40/(1+0.15) + 2.88/(1+0.15)2 + 3.456/(1+0.15)3 + 4.1472/(1+0.15)4 + 4.97664/(1+0.15)5

V1 = $2.0870 + $2.1777 +  $2.2723 + $2.3712 + $2.4742

V1 = $11.3824

PHASE 2

V2 = DN(1+g)/ (Ke-g )(1+k e)n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

V2 = $4.97664(1+0.02)/(0.15-0.02)(1+0.02)5      

V2 = $5.0762/0.1435

V2 = $35.3742

Po = V1 + V2

Po = $11.3824 + $35.3742

Po = $46.76

Explanation: This is a typical question on valuation of shares with two growth rate regimes. In the first phase, the value of the share would be obtained by capitalizing the dividend for each year by the cost of equity of the company. The dividend for year 1 to year 5 was obtained by subjecting the current dividend paid(Do) to growth rate. The growth rate In the first regime was 20%.

In the second phase, the value of shares would be calculated by taking cognizance of the second growth rate of 2%. In this phase, the last dividend paid in year 5 would be discounted at the appropriate discount rate after it has been adjusted for growth.

Explanation:

a. The journal entries, that should be recorded on January 1, and December 31, 2017, by Steel would be as follows:

                                                                       Debit   Credit

December 31, 2017

Lease Equipment Under Capital Leases    $166,794

December 31, 2017/January 1, 2018

                                                         Cash             $40,000

Lease Equipment Under Capital Leases=(40,000*PVIFA(10%,Years = 40,000*4.16986))= $166,794  

b. The journal entries, that should be recorded on January 1 and December 31, 2018, by Steel would be as follows:

December 31, 2018/January 1, 2019

Lease Liability          $27,321  

                           Cash                     $40,000

Depreciation Expense= (166,794/7)=$23,828

Interest Expense [(166,794 - 40,000)*10%]=$12,679  

Lease Liability=(40,000 - 12,679)=$27,321

c. The journal entries, that should be recorded on January 1, and December 31, 2019, by Steel would be as follows:

                                            Debit     Credit

Answer:

due diligence

Explanation:

Due diligence refers to an entrepreneur or a business man/woman basically doing their homework, i.e. investigating thoroughly about a business opportunity before deciding to accept a business proposal, enter a new market, or start a new business.

Many times, management is required by law to perform due diligence before entering a new business or signing certain contracts, but it is just common sense that before you start a new business you will try to find out if the business is feasible or not.
