Professor Bai is worried about his job security, and has started to venture into a new startup. Perhaps surprisingly, he is able

to take his startup to IPO within a 5-year period (please allow me to dream). The firm has just announced its first dividend of $3/share and the firm’s dividend is expected to grow extremely fast for 4 years in a row at 30% each year. However, Professor Bai expects that the company will only grow at 5% after that forever (Professor Bai is vampire and lives forever!!). Expected return (discount rate) for stocks is 12%. Please use the dividend discount model to price the stock at t=0.

Answer:

Explanation:

Price is sum of:

1. Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years;

2. Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year based on growth at 5%.

Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years:

PV1 = 3*(1+0.30)*0.8929 = 3.90*0.8929 = $3.482

*0.8929 = 1/1.12

PV2 = 3.90*1.30*0.7972 = 5.07*0.7972 = $4.042

PV3 = 5.07*1.30*0.7118 = 6.591*0.7118 = $4.691

PV4 = 6.591*1.30*0.6355 = 8.5683*0.6355 = $5.445

Total = $17.661

Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year:

Market price of the share at the end = 5th year dividend/(Required rate of return - growth rate)

5th year dividend = $8.5683*(1+growth rate) = $8.5683*(1+0.05) = $9

Market price of the share at the end = $9/(0.12-0.05) = $128.57

Present value of $128.57 is 128.57*0.6355(present value interest factor for year 4) = $81.7

So the price of share is $17.661+$81.7 = $99.37

Two fatal flaws can render a business model untenable from the beginning. These are:
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: failure to complete a business plan and failure to get funding.

Explanation:

To begin with, if an entrepreneur failures to complete a business plan and to get funding then the most probable thing to happen is that his business will be untenable from the beginning due to the fact that if the person do not possesses money and a plan to put his ideas in action he will never achieve his primary goals, that is, obtaining profits at long term. Therefore that if there is no business plan in which the company must focus and there is no money to carry out that strategy then the business model is doomed.

A customer sells 1 ABC Corporation put for 2 on February 22, 2019, with a strike price of 50 and an expiration date of March 16,
Deffense [45]

Answer: a. He has an acquisition cost of $4,800 and a date of acquisition of March 15, 2007.

Explanation:

A Put amount gives the holder the right to sell underlying assets. As the Put was exercised, the customer would have to buy the underlying stock and the price they will pay for it is the strike price of the Put less the cost of the Put.

Options contracts come in 100s so;

Acquisition cost = (50 - 2) * 100

= 48 * 100

= $4,800.

The date of acquisition is the day the put was exercised.

In the short-run an increase in the costs of production makes a. output rise and prices fall. b. output and prices fall. c. outp
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

C) Output fall and prices rise

Explanation:

In an aggregate supply, aggregate demand model, price level is the Y axis, and output is the X axis. Supply is positively related with price: the higher the price, the more firms produce.

However, to produce someting, firms need to employ the factors of production: land, labor and capital. The wages firms pay to workers, and the rent firms pay for land and capital are the production costs. If these costs rise, then, the products will become more expensive.

This increase in price will be met with lower demand; less customers will be willing to purchase the product, and therefore, the firms will start producing less until reaching a new equilibrium.

Bailey Company's flexible budget cost formula for indirect materials, a variable cost, is $0.60 per unit of output. If the compa
kolezko [41]

Answer:

$4,600

Explanation:

Standard rate = $0.60

Unit produced = 9,000

Favorable spending variance = $800

Material spending variance = [Standard rate - Actual rate) * Unit produced

Material spending variance = [Standard rate*Unit produced - Actual rate*Unit produced

$800 = [$0.6*9000) - Actual cost

Actual cost = [$0.6*9000) - $800

Actual cost = $5,400 - $800

Actual cost = $4,600
