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

After a cell is renamed the formula can be written by simply putting the name of the cell instead of the original e.g. E13

The formula for average is =AVERAGE(E15,E16).

The formula for highest is =MAX(F15,F16).

The formula for lowest is =MIN(G15,G16).

The cells provided in the formula above is just an example and more than two cells can be selected.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

D) 1,500

Explanation:

rent per room =$100 dollars

variable cost= $ 20 dollars

fixed cost =$ 100,000.00

desired profits=$ 20,000.00

volume(V) to meet profit target;

Contribution margin per sale= $100-$20= $80

Profits = revenue-cost

=$20,000= Vx$80-$100,000

=20,000=v80-100000

   v80=100,000.00+20,000

    v80=120,000

         v=  120,000/80

Volume =1,500

sales price = cost x (1 + 20%)

sales price = total cost x 1.20
