Answer:

The cost of common equity from reinvested earnings is 11.84%

Explanation:

The constant growth model of DDM or DCF approach is used to calculate the price of a stock today whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate forever. The model values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends form the stock.

The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

  • P0 is price today
  • D0 is the dividend today
  • r is the cost of equity
  • g is the growth rate in dividends

Plugging in the available values for all the variables, we can calculate the r or cost of common equity to be,

22.5 = 0.8 * (1+0.08) / (r - 0.08)

22.5 * (r - 0.08) = 0.864

22.5r - 1.8 = 0.864

22.5r = 0.864 + 1.8

r = 2.664 / 22.5

r = 0.1184 or 11.84%

Suppose you are evaluating two mutually exclusive projects, A and B. Project A costs $350 and has cash flows of $250 and $250 in
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The answer is 30%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Project A

Project A costs = $350

Cash flows =$250 and $250 (next 2 years)

Project B

Project B costs =$300

Cash flow = $300 and  $100

Now what is the crossover rate for these projects.

Thus

Year Project A    Project B A-B        B-A

0            -350     -300        -50        50

1             250      300        -50        50

2             250      100         150       -150

IRR         27%      26%         30%      30%

So,

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$-50 = $-50/(1+r)^1 + $150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$50 = $50/(1+r)^1 + $-150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

Hence, the cross over rate for these project is 30%

Note:

IRR =Internal rate of return

CF =Cash flow

r = rate

Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce rye and cheese. Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese

Explanation:

Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce rye and cheese.

Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels of rye while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 10 bushels of rye.

<u>By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese because it has a lower opportunity cost (as a matter of fact half the cost) in comparison with Sweden.</u>

<u>Comparative advantage is an economic term that refers to an economy's ability to produce goods and services at a lower opportunity cost than that of trade partners</u>

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

$32,980

Explanation:

The computation of comprehensive income is shown below:-

Comprehensive income = Cash dividend + Unrealized holding gain

= $11,800 + $31,800

= $32,980

Comprehensive income includes net profit and other complete or compression  profits.

Net revenue involves operating and non-operating income, net of expenses . Other comprehensive profits consisted of unrealized gains or losses, cash flow hedges.

So in this question we considered the dividend and unrealized holding gain as an comprehensive income
