Answer:
The correct option is B,$29.05
Explanation:
The required rate of return is can be computed using Miller and Modgiliani CAPM formula below:
Ke=Rf+Beta*Mrp
Ke is the cost of equity which is unknown
Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%
Mrp is the market risk premium of 5.50%
Beta is 1.2
Ke=3.00%+(1.2*5.50%)
Ke =9.6%
The current price of the common stock is the present value of dividends payment and stock price(terminal value) as shown below discounted with Ke of 9.6%
Year 1 $1.25*(1+25%)=$1.56
*1/(1+9.6%)^1=$1.43
Year 2 $1.56*(1+25%)=$1.95
*1/(1+9.6%)^2=$1.63
Year 3 $1.95*(1+25%)=$2.44
*1/(1+9.6%)^3=$1.85
Year 4 $2.44*(1+25%)=$3.05
*1/(1+9.6%)^4=$2.11
Terminal value=year 4 dividend/ke=$3.05/9.6%=$31.79*1/(1+9.6%)^4=$22.03
Total present values=$1.43
+$1.63+$1.85
+$2.11
+$22.03=$29.05
Answer:
Because fixed costs will not change, the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income will be equal to the contribution margin of the product once the new component is added.
Explanation:
The contribution margin is equal to: Revenue - Variable Costs.
We already know that the variable cost will be increased by $50 once new component is added, and that monthly sales are expected to increase by 500 units after that.
Depending on the price of the product, the amount sold, and the variable costs, we get the contribution margin, and this contribution margin will be exactly the same as the overall effect on the net operating income.
Answer:
Stronger organizational relationships
Explanation:
Effective listening enables individuals bro better understand each other and fosters collaboration.
When employees listen effectively to one another they build stronger relationships. This is important in organisations that have high diversity in the employee pool.
Also effective listening helps employees better understand customer needs and enables them to effectively meet customer expectations.
Most customer problems are easily solved when the employee listens carefully to what the customer is saying
Answer:
actual inflation rate will be equal to the expected inflation rate in the long term.
Explanation:
Since in the given instance, both companies sign the long term contract rather than the short term contract, because they believe that the expected inflation rate for each year cannot be accurately expected, but that the inflation rate for a long term period can be more accurately expected.
This is based on the concept of trend analysis, a trend analysis can help find long term results with more close to reality.
Thus, both the companies here believe that the long term rate can be expected properly of inflation.
