Answer: 7.80%

Explanation:

At the end of 2016, Josh received a dividend of $1.37 and at the end of 2020, he received one of $1.85.

You can calculate the growth rate with the formula:

Dividend Growth Rate = (Dividend received at end of 2020/Dividend received at end of 2016) ^ (1/n) - 1

2016 to 2020 is 4 years.

Dividend growth rate = (1.85 / 1.37)¹/⁴ - 1

= 0.07798518

= 7.80%

Answer:

demand of

Fall

decrease

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question:

1.expect the (supply of/ demand of )

2.forecasters to (increase/ decrease)

3. weather forecasters to (decrease/ increase)

The new technology would reduce the need for weather forecasters. So t.v. stations and radios would no longer employ weather forecasters and might even lay off some forecasters. So the demand for forecasters would fall.

Due to the reduced demand for forecasters, there would be a large number of unemployed forecasters with no one willing to employ them. This would lead them to a reduction in their salary. When supply exceeds demand, prices fall.

Up in Smoke Tobacco Shops' bond carries a 9 percent coupon, pays interest semiannually, and has 10 years to maturity. What is th
lara [203]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Since the bond is selling at a discount, it means that the coupon rate is blow the market rate, so the actual rate must be higher. Since there is only one option with an interest rate above 9%, we must check to see if it works.

10% yearly interest rate = 5% semiannual interest rate

we must determine the PV of the 20 coupons paid and the face value at maturity.

to calculate the PV of the 20 coupons ($45 each) we can use an excel spreadsheet and the NPV function with a 5% discount rate: PV of the coupons = $560.80

the PV of the face value in 10 years = $1,000 / 1.05²⁰ = $376.89

the present value of the coupons and the bond at maturity = $560.80 + $376.89 = $937.69. The PV using a 5% semiannual rate is very similar to $937.75, and since the question asked us to round up to the nearest whole percent, we can assume it is correct.
