Answer:

The reutrn on equity should be of 9.53%

Explanation:

We can solve the return on equity by considering the gordon model of dividend growth:

\frac{divends_1}{return_{equity}-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value

current dividends 2 dollars

next year dividends: current x (1 + g) = 2 x (1 + 0.06) = 2.12

\frac{2.12}{return_{equity}-0.06} = 60

\frac{2.12}{60} +0.06= Ke

Ke = 0.09533 = 9.53%

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

B. $14,600

The annual cash inflows associated with the machine can be found by the following expression, where 'r' is the company's discount rate of 12% and 'n' is the useful life of the equipment of 18 years:

-investment+ X*\frac{(1 - (1 + r)^{-n})}{r} =NPV\\\\-\$100,000 + X*\frac{(1 - (1 + r)^{-n})}{r} =\$5,850\\-\$100,000 + X*\frac{(1 - (1 + 0.12)^{-18})}{0.12} =\$5,850\\X=\frac{\$105,850}{7.25} \\X=\$14,600

Annual cash inflows are $14,600.
