Answer:
e) $37.05
Explanation:
Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.
So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula
P = D (1+g)/r-g
r- rate of return, g = growth rate
Present value of the future dividends:
PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)
= 1.4047
PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)
= 1.27
PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)
Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend
= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)
=43.114
Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend
=43.114 × (1.12^(-2))
= 34.37
Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37
= $37.05
Note
To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0
Answer:
The subsidiary reports cost of goods sold at A. $660,000.
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold is the direct cost of producing or purchasing the goods sold by a business. The formula for cost of goods sold is as follows:
Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchases - Closing inventory
The subsidiary calculates its cost of goods sold as follows.
Opening inventory $120,000
Add: Purchases $720,000
Less: Closing inventory ($180,000)
Cost of goods sold $660,000
Therefore, the correct option is A. $660,000.
Answer:
=$11,580.00
Explanation:
The CD pays 4.9 percent compounded monthly for four years.
In one year, there will be 12 occasions of compounding; after four years, there would be 12 x 4 = 36 compounds.
The interest rate per year is 4.9 percent; monthly interest will be 4.9 /12, which is 0.4083 percent.
The amount in four years is the same as the future value after four years.
=FV = PV (1+r)n
Pv =$10,000
r=0.4083 %
N =36
Fv = 10,000(1+0.4083/100)36
=10,000(1+0.004083)36
=$10000 x 1.1579932
=$11,579. 932
=$11,580.00
Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
Taxes levied on either buyers or sellers are equivalent. In both cases, the tax creates a wedge. This wedge is the difference between the price that the buyers have to pay and the price that the sellers receive.
The price that the buyers have to pay increases while the price that the sellers receive decreases. But this tax wedge does not depend on whom the tax is levied, it depends on the elasticity of demand and supply. So whether the tax is levied on buyers or sellers, the tax wedge will remain the same.
The tax burden will be shared between both buyers and sellers. So it is incorrect to say that the taxes levied on sellers and taxes levied on buyers are not equivalent.
