Answer: Value of the common stock = $29.41

Explanation:

GIVEN the following ;

Dividend =$2.50

Rate of return (r) = 8.5% 0.085

The question above requires us to calculate the value of common stock which is equivalent to the present value of perpetuity which is the amount of a fixed income or cash flow an individual earns at regular interval for an INDEFINITE period.

RECALL;

PRESENT VALUE of PERPETUITY IS GIVEN BY:

PV of perpetuity = (Dividend or coupon per period ÷ interest rate(r))

PV of perpetuity = ($2.50 ÷ 0.085)

PV of perpetuity = $29.411

PV of perpetuity = $29.41

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

In order to compute the profit, the accountant consider the Explicit cost so,

Explicit Cost = Borrowed amount × Interest rate + Ingredients amount

                     = $30,000 ×  3% + $25,000

                     = $259,000

Where Revenue is $60,000

Profit = Revenue - Explicit Cost

        = $60,000 - $259,000

        = $34,100

Economic Profit is computed as:

Economic Profit = Total Profit - Implicit Cost

                          = $34,100 - $40,600

                          = - $6,500

where

Implicit Cost = Salary + Interest

                = $40,000 + ($20,000 × 3%)

                =  $40,000 + $600

                = $40,600

Therefore, Louis says profit is $34,100 and Greg says she lost $6,500
