Answer: a. I, II and III are true
Explanation:
From the question, the statements that are true are:
I. 4% is the desired real rate of interest. II. 6% is the approximate nominal rate of interest required.
III. 2% is the expected inflation rate over the period.
4% is the desired real rate of interest because that's the rate at which the investor is willing to buy the goods in future.
2% is the expected inflation rate over the period because at that rate, there's expectation of future rise in price while 6% is the approximate nominal rate of interest required which is the addition of the 4% and the 2%.
Answer:
The answer is A) $2,000
Explanation:
According to the IRS Publication 525 (2018), Taxable and Nontaxable Income
<em>"</em><em><u>If you receive tangible personal property (other than cash, a gift certificate, or an equivalent item) as an award for length of service</u></em><em> or safety achievement, you generally can </em><em><u>exclude its value from your income</u></em><em>. However, the amount you can exclude is limited to your employer's cost and </em><em><u>can’t be more than $1,600</u></em><em> ($400 for awards that aren’t qualified plan awards) for all such awards you receive during the year. Your employer can tell you whether your award is a qualified plan award. Your employer must make the award as part of a meaningful presentation, under conditions and circumstances that don’t create a significant likelihood of it being disguised pay." </em>
Ed has to include the $2,000 he received as income but the $250 watch can be excluded.
Answer:
$41.96
Explanation:
The first thing you need to do is to calculate terminal value at the end of time t = 3. Then the intrinsic value of the stock is sum of discounted cashflow from t =1 to t = 3 (cashflows at t = 3 includes dividend as well as terminal value).
Terminal value at t = 3 = Dividend in year 4/(Required rate of return - Dividend growth)
= 4.25 x (1 + 3%)/(12.5% - 3%)
= 46.08
Then value of the stock is calculated as below:
Stock intrinsic value = 3.8/(1 + 12.5%) + 4.1/(1 + 12.5%)^2 + (4.25 + 46.08)/(1 + 12.5%)^3
= 41.96
