Answer:

Denver Mart

The net present value of this project given the sales forecasts is:

= $98,400.40

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Project's estimated life = 5 years

Initial project cost = $136,000

Discount rate = 11%

Initial estimated sales = 2,200 at $26

Revenue in years 1, 2, and 3 each = 2,200 * $26 = $57,200

Sales forecast of Year 4 and 5 revised to 1,750 units

Probability of 1,000 * 50% = 500

Probability of 2,500 * 50% 1,250

Total sales forecast = 1,750 units

Revenue in years 4 and 5 each =  1,750 * $26 = $45,500

Present value of revenue:

Year 1, 2, and 3 = $57,200 * Annuity factor

= $57,200 * 3.102 = $177,434.40

Year 4, PV = $45,500 * 0.659 = $29,984.50

Year 5, PV = $45,500 * 0.593 = $26,9815

Year 1 to 5 added =   $234,400.40

Present value of revenue = $234,400.40

Present value of costs =        136,000.00

Net present value =              $98,400.40

If the discount rate is 21% and the steady growth rate after 3 years is 2%, what should the stock price be today
jonny [76]

<u>Complete Question:</u>

Tattletale News Corp. has been growing at a rate of 20% per year, and you expect this growth rate in earnings and dividends to continue for another 3 years.

a. If the last dividend paid was $10, what will the next dividend be? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Dividend  $

b. If the discount rate is 21% and the steady growth rate after 3 years is 2%, what should the stock price be today? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Stock price  $

Answer:

Requirement A. $12 per share

Requirement B. $44.14 per share

Explanation:

Requirement A.

The next dividend can be calculated using the following equation:

Next Dividend = D0 * (1 + g)

Here

D0 is the current dividend which is $10 and g is the Growth Rate which is 20% for the first three years

By putting values, we have:

Next Dividend = $10 * (1 + 20%)

= $12 per share

Requirement B.

Year  Dividend  Growth Rate  New Dividend

1               10                      20%           12

2               12                      20%                 14.40

3                 14.4                     20%         17.28

4            17.28                    2%                   17.63

Stock Price = $17.63 * (1 + 2%) / (21% - 2%) = $94.62

The above stock price calculated is the value of stock at the end of year 4. To discount it back to year zero, we will discount it by 21%.

Stock price at year0 = $94.62 / (1 + 21%)^4 = $44.14 per share

fiasKO [112]

Answer: d. inflation will increase.

Explanation:

The Natural rate of unemployment is the long term rate of unemployment which means that it is the rate associated with the Potential GDP.

If the Actual unemployment is less than this natural rate, it means that the Economy is performing better than the potential GDP. When this is happening, it means that the economy is overheating.

One of the symptoms of an overheated economy is increased inflation as more people can afford to buy goods and services. Inflation is therefore more probably rising in this economy.
