Answer:

You should pay $3.86 to purchase this stock.

Explanation:

Hi, first let me mention that we can find the price of a stock by bringing to present value its future cash flows, in this case, its dividends, therefore we need to bring to present value $0.25 of year 3 and $0.25 of year 4. We also have to bring that constant dividend of $0.75 that the company plans to pay indefinitely, that we can do by using the following formula, discounted at 13%.

PV(4)=\frac{Constant Dividend}{Discount Rate}

Notice that the formula above says PV(4), that is because this formula only brings that perpetual annuity to one period of time before the first payment takes place, therefore this value has to be brought to present value too.

With all the considerations above, this is how everything should look like.

Price=\frac{0.25}{(1+0.13)^{3} } +\frac{0.25}{(1+0.13)^{4} } +\frac{0.75}{0.13} *\frac{1}{(1+0.13)^{4} }

Price=0.17+0.15+3.54=3.86

Therefore, the price of this stock is $3.86

Best of luck.

Colgate-Palmolive Company has just paid an annual dividend of $ 1.50$1.50. Analysts are predicting dividends to grow by $ 0.12$0
klio [65]

Answer:

The price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today is $66.47

Explanation:

In order to calculate the price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today we would have to calculate first the Present value of dividend of next 5 years as follows:

Present value of dividend of next 5 years as follows=

Year Dividend Discount factor Present value      

a             b          c=1.085^-a             d=b*c      

1 $       1.62 0.921659 $       1.49      

2 $       1.74 0.849455 $       1.48      

3 $       1.86 0.782908 $       1.46      

4 $       1.98 0.721574  $       1.43      

5 $       2.10 0.665045 $       1.40      

Total                                   $       7.25

Then, we have to calculate the Present value of dividend after 5 years as follows:

Present value of dividend after 5 years=D5*(1+g)/(Ke-g)*DF5

Present value of dividend after 5 years=$2.10(1+6%)/(8.50%-6%)* 0.665045

Present value of dividend after 5 years=$59.22

Current value of stock=Present value of dividend of next 5 years+ Present value of dividend after 5 years    

Current value of stock= $7.25+$59.22      

Current value of stock=$66.47        

The price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today is $66.47

Mike is walking through a parking lot and finds Kathy lying unconscious. He puts her in his car and takes her to the hospital. T
slava [35]

Answer:

The answer to this question is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario displayed above Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

A  Quasi contract is a contract  that is created by a court order, not by an agreement made by the parties to the contract. For example, quasi contracts are created by the court when no official agreement exists between the parties, in disputes over payments for goods or services

In this case there has not been an official agreement between Kathy and the hospital, However she has to pay the bill presented to her based on Quasi contract which is created to prevent an individual to be unjustly enriched or from benefiting from the situation when he/she  does not deserve to do so.

Hence the answer is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

A company purchased $1,800 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 2/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $200 worth of merchandise. On
pychu [463]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The amount of cash paid on July 8 is computed as:

Amount of goods worth = Purchased amount - Returned goods worth  Amount of goods worth = $1,800 - $200

Amount of goods worth  = $1,600

As the amount is paid within the terms of 10 days, so the amount is eligible for the discount of 2%, it is as:

Amount to be paid in cash = Amounts of goods worth - ( Amounts of goods worth × Discount)

where

Amounts of goods worth is $1,600

Discount is of 2%

Putting the values above:

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,600 - ($1,600 × 2%)

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,600 - 32

Amount to be paid in cash = $1,568
