Answer:
27%
Explanation:
The actual rate being charge on these loans is the effective annual rate and the formula to calculate it is:
i=(1+(r/m))^m−1
i= effective annual rate
r= interest rate in decimal form=0.24
m=number of compounding periods per year= 52 (a year has 52 weeks).
i=(1+(0.24/52))^52-1
i=1.27-1
i=0.27
According to this, the answer is that the actual rate being charge on these loans is 27%.
Answer:
31.12
Explanation:
Given that,
Growing at a constant rate = 6.5%
Firm’s last dividend, R = 3.36
Required rate of return = 18%
Expected dividend next year = 3.36 × (1 + 6.5%)
= 3.5784
Market value of stock:
= Expected dividend next year ÷ ( required return - growth rate)
= 3.5784 ÷ (0.18-0.065)
= 31.11652
= 31.12
Answer: initially Sam gross profit would drop. But overtime when he starts gaining customers in his new branch added to the already existing customers in his old branch there would a very large gross profit increase.
Explanation: Gross profit is the percentage of revenue a company retains after accounting for cost of goods/services.
In this case payment of staffs in both the old and new branches would be accounted for, with the new branch still very much dependent on the old branch for payment of staff until it can get its own customers, only then would the new branch be able to be self reliant and also make profit.
Answer: $22000
Explanation:
The amount of Superior's dividend declarations during its recent year of operation will be calculated thus:
Ending retained earnings ($91000) = Beginning retained earnings ($75000) + Net income ($38000) - Dividend declared
$91000 = $113000 - Dividend declared
Dividend declared = $113000 - $91000
Dividend declared = $22000
Therefore, Superior's dividend declarations during its recent year of operation is $22000
