Answer:

To say that people respond to incentives is to say that:

changes in benefits or changes in costs influence people's decisions and their behavior.

Explanation:

Incentives are the rewards (benefits) or punishments (costs) that shape people's choices and decisions.  Changes in incentives, whether monetary or non-monetary, drive people's decisions and behavior.  When opportunity costs change, incentives change, and people's choices and behavior also change.  The changes that cause people to change their behavior as a result of changes in incentives can be described in predictable ways.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

The stock of Nogro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be
V125BC [204]

Answer:

a) required rate of return = 10%

b)Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Explanation:

The question is in three parts and will be answered accordingly

a) The Required Rate of Return = (The Dividend Expected for the next year/ Current Price of Stock) + the Growth rate

First, we calculate the Dividend expected per share for the next year

=earnings per share x Dividends pay out ratio

=$2 /$10 = 20%

Secondly, we now calculate the return on equity as follows

= Expected Earnings Per share / Current Selling price

= $2 x (1-50%) = 10%

The third is to calculate the Growth rate =

Return on Equity x (1 - Dividend payout ratio)

= 20% x (1-50%) = 10%

Using this with the formula of required rate of return

= ($1 /$10) +10% = 20%

b) First the assumption is that all earnings were paid as dividend with no reinvestment and in this scenario, the lack of reinvestment will mean no growth. Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) Because the Return on Equity is equal to required rate of return, it means a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Plutonic Inc. had $400 million in taxable income for the current year. Plutonic also had an increase in deferred tax liabilities
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Increase of 130 million

Explanation:

In this question, we are looking to evaluate what has happened to change in deferred tax assets. We proceed as follows;

Firstly, we calculate the current tax.

Mathematically = 40% of 400 million = 40/100 * 400 million = 160 million

Now, as we can see in the question, a decrease in deferred tax asset resulted in an increase in tax expense to a tune of $50 million

This brings the total tax expense to 160 million + 50 million = 210 million

We can see from the question that the company has only recognized a tax expense of $80 million.

This means that the change in deferred tax asset was an increase of 210 million- 80 million = $130 million

Inferential statistics

Explanation:

Descriptive statistics describes data and gives us a picture of what the data summary looks like using such things as mean and central tendency measures. Inferential statistics on the other hand aims to make predictions using the data based on data analysis such as collecting sample from population and constructing hypotheses to estimate outcomes for the general population. Example in the question, the first is inferential statistics as we make generalized predictions on batteries using data samples from the population of batteries of a particular type.
