Answer:
macaroni is an inferior good and price elasticity of supply is infinite.
Explanation:
An inferior good is a good whose demand increases when income falls and falls when income increases.
A normal good is a good whose demand increases when income rises and decreases when income falls.
Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to changes in price.
Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change price
Percentage change in quantity supplied = not given
Percentage change in price = 0 (because the question states that there was no change in price)
Any figure divided by zero gives infinity.

Explanation:
The computation is shown below::
The dividend yield = Annual dividend ÷ Market share price
where,
Market share price = $22 per share
Annual dividend = $0.88 per share
So, the dividend yield = ($0.88 per share ÷ $22 per share) × 100
= 4.0%
The capital gain rate is
= (Expected share price - initial price) ÷ (Initial price) × 100
= ($23.54 - $22) ÷ ($22) × 100
= $1.54 ÷ $22 × 100
= 7.0%
Now the total return is
=(Expected share price + expected dividend - initial price) ÷ (Initial price) × 100
= ($23.54 + $0.88 - $22) ÷ ($22) × 100
= $2.42 ÷ $22 × 100
= 11.0%
Answer:
a. Current price = $43.99
b. We have:
Price in four years = $52.03
Price in sixteen years = $101.76
Explanation:
a. What is the current price?
Using the Gordon Growth Model formula, we have:
Current price = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)) / (12% - 5.75%) = $43.99
b. What will the price be in four years and in sixteen years?
Using the Gordon Growth Model formula with an adjustment for number of years, we have:
Price in four years = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)^Number of years) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)^4) / (12% - 5.75%) = $52.03
Price in sixteen years = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)^Number of years) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)^16) / (12% - 5.75%) = $101.76
