Answer:

P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64

Option c is the correct answer

Explanation:

Using the two stage growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula to calculate the price of the stock today is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r)  +  D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  +  D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n  +  [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n]

Where,

  • g1 is the initial growth rate
  • g2 is the constant growth rate
  • r is the required rate of return

P0 = 2* (1+0.2) / (1+0.1)  +  2 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^2  +  2 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^3  

+  2 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^4  +  2 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^5  +

[(2 * (1+0.2)^5 * (1+0.04)  /  (0.1 - 0.04)) / (1+0.1)^5]

P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64

damaskus [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is an Ordinary Annuity question. You can solve this using a financial calculator. I'm using (TI BA II Plus)

N; duration = 20

I/Y ; interest rate per year = 8.5%

PMT ; recurring annual payment = 70,000

FV; Future value = 0 (In solving annuities, use 0 if not given)

evablogger [386]

Answer:

d.$1,371,000

Explanation:

Given that

Warranty liability at the beginning of year = $359,000

Warranty liability at the end of year = $308,000

Warranty expense = $44 million

Sales percentage = 3%

So, the warranty expense = $44,000,000 × 3% = $13,20,000

So, the warranty expenditures for 2018 is

= Beginning warranty liability + warranty expense - ending warranty liability

= $359,000 + $13,20,000 - $308,000

= $1,371,000

Match each type of tax with its correct description.
Masja [62]

Answer:

1. Medicare tax.

2. Local income tax.

3. Federal income tax.

4. Social Security tax.

5. State income tax.

Explanation:

Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.

The various type of tax with their correct description are;

1. Medicare tax: it is used to support healthcare costs for retired workers. An example is the Affordable Care Act (ACA) which became effective on the 23rd of March, 2010 and it's focused on making affordable health insurance available to qualified people or households through cost-sharing reductions and premium tax credits (subsidies).

2. Local income tax: it is collected by town, school district, counties and cities to fund city or community programs.

3. Federal income tax: it is collected from most workers, who pay up to 39.6 percent of their earnings. This type of tax is paid by employees with respect to the amount of money they receive as their wages or salary.

4. Social Security tax: it is used to provide financial support to retired and disabled workers. In the United States of America, the Social Security Administration (SSA) adopted the Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program to support retired and disabled workers.

5. State income tax: it is collected from workers in most states to fund their budget and the rate differs from state to state.
