Answer:

$ 48,533,333.33

Explanation:

The value of the firm now is the present value of its profits using the constant growth rate model formula as provided below:

PV of profits(value of the firm)=expected profits/(opportunity cost of funds-constant growth rate)

expected profits=current profits*(1+constant growth rate)

current profits =$1,400,000

constant growth rate=4%

expected profits=$1,400,000*(1+4%)

expected profits=$1,456,000

the opportunity cost of funds=7%

PV of profits(value of the firm)=$1,456,000/(7%-4%)

PV of profits(value of the firm)=$1,456,000/3%

PV of profits(value of the firm)=$ 48,533,333.33

The demand for a good is usually inelastic in the short run considering the time consumers would take to search for an alternative.

The Evanec Company's next expected dividend, D1, is $3.95; its growth rate is 4%; and its common stock now sells for $37.00. New
Trava [24]

Answer:

rs=14.68%

F=15%

re=16.56%

Explanation:

using the constant growth model:

P0=\frac{D1}{rs-g}

where P0 is the current stock price

           D1 is the dividend expected at the end of the 1st year

            rs is  cost of retained earnings.

Rearranging to make rs subject of the formula:

rs=\frac{D1}{P0}+ g

rs=\frac{3.95}{37}+ 0.04 = 0.1468

if Evanec issues new stock, they will only net $31.45 down from $37 per share due to floatation costs. The difference, ie  $37-$31.45 = $5.55 is due to floation costs.

The percentage floatation costs (F) are \frac{5.55}{37} = 0.15 = 15%

alternatively, one can recognise that  37(1-F)=31.45  and F = 15%

Cost of new common stock re is calculated as follows:

re=\frac{D1}{P0(1-F)}+ g

re=\frac{3.95}{37(1-0.15)}+ 0.04 = 0.1656 = 16.56%

saw5 [17]

Answer: 14 years

Explanation:

The question states that an individual has $25,832.81 in a brokerage account, and plan to deposit an additional $4,000 at the end of every future year until the money in the account totals $210,000 and it's expected to earn 10% annually on the account.

To know the number of years that it'll take to reach the goal, we'll solve this in Excel as:

= =NPER (10%,-4000,-25832.81, 210000).

= 14 years

Therefore, it'll take 14 years to reach the goal.
