Answer: $43

Explanation:

The current stock price will be calculated as:

= Do(1 - g) / (Ke + g)

where,

Do = $ 4.90

g = 2.50%

Ke = 8.60%

Po = [4.90 - (1 - 0.025)] / [0.086 + 0.025]

Po = 4.7775 / 0.111

Po = $43

The price of one share of the stock today will be $43

A company with a labor agreement under which union membership cannot be required as a condition of employment is considered an open shop.
This means that the employees do not have to join a trade union in order to work there at this particular company. So regardless of the fact whether these workers are members of the union or not, they will be employed and paid equally.

A company has two divisions and evaluates management using return on investment. Division 1 currently makes a part that it sells
Anton [14]

Answer:

c. Division 1 should continue to do business with Division 2 because Division 1's variable cost per part is only $18.

Explanation:

Since the variable cost per part is only $18 and Division 1  sells to Division 2 at $25, it is in the company's overall interest that business should continue between the two divisions.

The cost of getting the part from outside is $26.  This will incur more cost to the company and create excess capacity for Division 1.

Fixed costs are not relevant in making a decision of this nature.  The costs would be incurred irrespective of the decision made.  They are therefore irrelevant.  The relevant cost is the variable cost of $18 per unit.  It should be the focus of the decision, including the possibility of excess capacity for Division 1.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The indifference policy advocates that dividends are irrelevant.

Explanation:

The indifference Policy holds that that dividends do not add value to a company’s stock price.

According to this theory, investors do not need to concern themselves with a company's dividend policy since they have the option to sell a portion of their portfolio of equities if they want cash.

This school of thought believes that a company’s declaration and payment of dividends should have little to no impact on the stock price.
