Answer:

The national income statistics are important to any government, including the government of Ghana.

The national income statistics measure the production of goods and services within the country, or by nationals from the country.

There are three important measures that are obtained from national income statistics:

Gross National Product (GDP): values the amount of goods and services produced domestically (in this case, whithin Ghana), in a given yar.
Gross National Product (GNP): values the amount of goods and services produced by Ghanian citizens, whether they live in Ghana or abroad. This measure is very important because there are many Ghanians living in other countries
Net National Product (NNP): It is equal to gross national product minus depreciated assets. This measure is important because it helps the Ghanian government see which investments are actually productive, and not just replacement investments for depreciated assets.

Bond [772]

Answer:

Debit retained earnings for $15.30 million.

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Declaration of common stock dividend indicates no cash payments, only extra shares issued with rate of stock dividend

In this Rick Co. had 30 million shares and Rick Co. declared 1% stock dividend

which means 30 million × 1% = 0.30 million shares issued

Retained earning = (0.30 million × $51)

= $15.30 million

To common stock A/c = (0.30 × $1) = $0.30 million

To capital paid in access A/c = (0.30 million × ($51-$1)) = $15.00 million

( Being stock dividend was issued at 1% )

Hence, Option (d) Debit retained earning for $15.30 million is correct.

Answer:

The target stock price in one year is $149.93

Explanation:

Fly Away, Inc., has

Balance sheet equity of (E) = $ 5,400,000

Also, the income statement shows net income of (NI) = $783,000.

The company paid dividends of (D) = $438,480

Shares of stock outstanding (N) = 100,000

Benchmark PE ratio = 18

Question = what is the target stock price in one year?

We need the expected EPS at the end of next year and not this year.

EPS this year, E₀ = NI / N

= 783,000 / 100,000

= $ 7.83

Retention Ratio, "R" = 1 - Dividend payout ratio = 1 - D/NI

= 1 - 438,480 / 783,000

= 1 - 56.00%

= 44.00%

Return on equity, ROE = NI / E

= 783,000 / 5,400,000

= 14.50%

Growth rate in earnings, g = R x ROE

= 44.00% x 14.50%

= 6.38%

Hence, expected EPS next year, E₁ = E₀ x (1 + g)

= $ 7.83 x (1 + 6.38%)

= $ 8.33

Hence, target price next year, P = Benchmark PE ratio x E₁

= 18 x $8.33

= $149.93

The target stock price in one year = $149.93
