NISA [10]

Early accounts of ethnic groups and their cultures and habits came from scientific travelers like George M. Dawson who became director of the Geological Survey of Canada. In his travels in Canada to explore its mineral potential, he encountered many native groups who he described and also wrote of their languages so this is an example of how early travelers laid the foundation for the studies of later anthropologists.

Suppose that the quantity of DVD players sold increased from 200 to 400 when the price fell from $225 to $175. Over this price r

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

Given information:

$Q_1=200, Q_2=400$

$P_1=225, P_2=175$

Formula for price elasticity of demand is

$E_d=\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{P_2-P_1}\times \frac{P_1+P_2}{Q_1+Q_2}$

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

$E_d=\frac{400-200}{175-225}\times \frac{225+175}{200+400}$

$E_d=\frac{200}{-50}\times \frac{400}{600}$

$E_d=-\frac{8}{3}$

$E_d\approx -2.67$

Absolute value is

$|E_d|= |-2.67|=2.67$

The absolute value of the price elasticity of demand for DVD players is 2.67.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

R.S. Green has 250,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $28 a share. Next year’s annual dividend is expec

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

WACC 6.18%

Explanation:

to get the cost of capital we solve using the gordon model:

$\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value$

$\frac{divends}{Price} = return-growth$

$\frac{divends}{Price} + growth = return$

$$Cost of Equity =\frac{D_1}{P)} +g$

D1 1.55

P 28

f 0.00

g 0.02

$$Cost of Equity =\frac{1.55}{28} +0.02$

Ke 0.075357143

Then for the cost of debt, we need to calculate the YTM of the bonds:

which is the rate at which the present value of the coupon payment and maturity equals the market price:

For the complexity this is done with excel or a financial calculator there is also an approximation formula

YTM with excel: 0.073516565

now that we good this we need to determinate the weigth of equity and debt:

250,00 shares x 28 dollars each = 7,000,000

1,500 bonds of $1,000 each at 98% = 7,350,000

value of the company: 7,000,000 + 7,350,000 = 14,350,000

Ew: 7,000,000 / 14,350,000 = 0.487804878

Dw: 7,350,000 / 14,350,000 =0.512195122

Now we got all values and we can determinate the WACC:

$WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})$

Ke 0.075357143

Equity weight 0.487804878

Kd 0.074

Debt Weight 0.512195122

t 0.34

$WACC = 0.075357143(0.48780487804878) + 0.074(1-0.34)(0.51219512195122)$

WACC 0.0617752 = 6.18%

Assume that you purchased 140 shares of Misty Company stock for $78 a share, that you received an annual dividend of $1.60 a sha

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Return (%) = 17.43%

Explanation:

T<em>he return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.</em>

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Dividend= ($1.60× 140)= $224

Capital gains= (90-78) × 140= $1680

Total dollar return on Investment = $224+ $1680= $1904

Total return in (%) = Return/ cost of shares × 100

= 1904/ (140 × 78) × 100

= 17.43%
