The correct answer is C. A face-to-face meeting

Explanation:

A face-to-face meeting is one of the most common communication forms used in business, this implies participants meet in the same space and at the same time and therefore interaction occurs directly. This type of interaction is more beneficial than email messages, telephone conversation or voice mails in terms of understanding both the verbal and non-verbal information.

Indeed, only in a face-to-face meeting, you can see the gestures, movements, and position of the other person which often reveals more than his/her words. Due to this, Steve should use a face-to-face meeting because this channel would allow him to gather more information than other channels as it is the only one that would allow him to understand nonverbal cues.

Answer: option C

Explanation: A face to face interaction between the concerned parties will be the best alternative in this case as Steve wants to have maximum information and also non verbal clues. In Email message and voice mail there might be a lack of information as the transmission and transfer of messages will be slow and also there will be no nonverbal clues. In case of telephone conversation the information transmission will be fast but the problem regarding non verbal clues will still be there, hence, face to face conversation is the best alternative.

Prock Petroleum's stock has a required return of 15%, and the stock sells for $60 per share. The firm just paid a dividend of $1
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Price =[PVF15%,1*D1]+[PVF15%,2*D2]+[PVF15%,3*D3]+[PVF15%,4*D4]+[PVF15%,4*Terminal value at year4 ]

60 = [.86957* 1.3]+[.75614*1.69]+[.65752*2.197]+[.57175*2.8561]+[.57175*TV]

     = 1.1304+ 1.2779+ 1.4446+ 1.6330+ .57175TV

60 = 5.4859+.57175TV

Terminal value = [60-5.4859]/.57175

         = 54.5141/.57175

       = $ 95.3460

Terminal value=D4(1+g)/(Rs-g)

95.3460 =2.8561(1+g)/(.15-g)

95.3460(.15-g)= 2.8561-2.8561g

  14.3019- 95.3460g = 2.8561-2.8561g

   95.3460g-2.8561g = 14.3019-2.8561

     92.4899 g = 11.4458

   g = 11.4458/92.4899

        = .1238 or 12.38%

Growth after year4 = 12.38%

**D1 =1(1+.30)=1.3

D2 =1.3(1+.3)=1.69

D3 = 1.69(1+.3)= 2.197

D4= 2.197(1+.3)= 2.8561
