Answer:
Risk-free rate (Rf) = 8%
Return on market portfolio (Rm) = 15%
Beta (β) = 1.2
Ke = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
Ke = 8 + 1.2(15 - 8)
Ke = 8 + 1.2(7)
Ke = 8 + 8.4
Ke = 16.40%
Earnings per share (EPS) = $10
Current dividend paid (Do) = 40% x $10 = $4
Retention rate (b) = &6/$10 x 100 = 60% = 0.6
ROE (r) = 20% = 0.2
Growth rate (g) = b x r
= 0.6 x 0.2
= 0.12 = 12%
Current market price (Po)
= Do<u>(1 + g) </u>
Ke - g
= $4<u>(1 + 0.12)</u>
0.1640 - 0.12
= $4<u>(1.12)</u>
0.044
= $101.82
Explanation:
First and foremost, we need to calculate the cost of equity based on capital asset pricing model. Then, we will determine the growth rate, which is a function of retention rate (b) and return on equity(r).
Finally, we will calculate the current market price, which is dividend paid, subject to growth, divided by the excess of cost of equity over growth rate.
Answer:
Any type of government policy that restricts free trade and the movement of capital can trigger the aforementioned consequences. Thus, the limitation of companies to obtain economic benefits can make them decide to close their activities, leaving employees on the street (increasing unemployment), reducing the country's economic production (causing the country's real GDP to decrease), and ultimately, generating monetary lags due to lack of economic production, generating devaluations that lower the international price level of the country's products.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": ISO 14000.
Explanation:
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 14000 refers to a series of norms in regards to environmental systems management that are related to<em> protection, prevention, pollution, </em>and <em>socio-economic needs</em>. ISO 14000 attempts ton find a balance between economic savings and the decrease of environmental damage.
Institutions ISO 14000 certified have proven to handle businesses keeping a strong environmental policy. In such a scenario, <em>the engineers investigating Minimotors should review the criteria evaluated at the moment of providing that company the ISO 14000 certification and if they have been following it.</em>

Answer:
$663.5
Explanation:
given that
number of years remaining = 4 years
yield to maturity ratio = 10.8% = 1.108
Par value = $1000
Current yield takes a look at the current price of a bond, instead of looking at it from a face value. That being said, it can be calculated mathematically as
Current yield = 1000 / 1.108^4
Current yield = 1000 / 1.507
Current yield = $663.5
Therefore, the current yield from the question we are given, is found to be $663.5.
