8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Cost of equity = 10.7%

Explanation:

<em>We will work out the required rate of return using the the dividend valuation model. The model states that the value of a stock is the present value of the future divided discounted at the cost of equity. </em>

The model is given below:

P = D× (1+g)/(r-g)

P- price of stock, D- dividend payable now, g- growth rate in dividend, r- cost of equity

So we substitute  

130 = 5.50× (1+r)/(r-0.06)

cross multiplying

(r-0.06)× 130 = 5.50 × (1+r)

130 r- 7.8  = 5.50 + 5.50r

collecting like terms

130 r - 5.50r=5.50 + 7.8

124.5  r= 13.3

Divide both sides by 124.5

r =13.3 /124.5=  0.1068

r=0.1068 × 100=  10.7%

Cost of equity = 10.7%

timama [110]

In order to calculate the depreciation using the double declining balance method you must first calculate the amount of depreciate using the straight line method. After you calculate it by the straight line method, you simply need to double it for this this problem.

The original price is $20,000, and then subtract the $2,000 estimated trade in value and the answer is $18,000. This is the amount that you need to depreciate.

Straight line method: $18,000 divided by the 5 year useful life = $3,600 per year.

Double declining balance = $3,600 x2 = $7,200 per year depreciation.

1 7,200

2 7,200

Triss [41]

Answer:

increase the money supply, but prices would forever be higher.

Explanation:

In this scenario, an economy starts in a long-run equilibrium, however a natural disaster such as drought kills crops and dramatically increases the price of food in the market. Thus, if the Federal Reserve wanted to stabilize the economy and return it back to full employment, it would increase the money supply, but prices would forever be higher.
