VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The long and short-term consequences of not promoting equality or working to reduce poverty are:

1. the poverty gap widens, causing many more of the population to become poor while a few become richer.

2. extreme poverty becomes the norm, thereby hampering societal progress.

3. discrimination and social classes become oppressive.

Explanation:

Economic equality describes a situation that ensures that every individual in a society has an equal economic opportunity to make the most of their lives and talents by having some access to resources.  Equality reduces discrimination among certain groups of the population, especially those with protected characteristics such as race, disability, sex, and sexual orientation.  It ensures the fair distribution of natural resources among the population, according to their individual needs and capacity.  It does not mean sameness in social or economic status.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

(a) the earnings per share = $3

(b) the price-earnings ratio = 8x

(c) the dividends per share = $0.25

(d) the dividend yield = 1.04%

Explanation:

Common Stock Outstanding = 5,250,000/25 = 210,000 shares

Preferred Stock Outstanding = 6,000,000/200 = 30,000 shares

Preferred Stock Dividend per share = $4

(a) Earnings Per Share

EPS = <u>Net Income - Preferred Dividend</u>

            Common Stock Outstanding

EPS = <u>750,000 - (30,000 * 4)</u>

                  210,000

EPS = <u>630,000</u>

           210,000

EPS = $3

(b) Price-Earnings Ratio    

Market Price = $24

EPS = $3

P/E ratio = <u>Market Price</u>

                      EPS

P/E ratio = 24/3

P/E ratio = 8x

(c) Dividends Per Share

DPS = <u>               Total Dividends          </u>

             Common Stock Outstanding

DPS = 52,500/210,000

DPS = $0.25

(d) Dividend Yield

DY = <u>Dividend Per Share</u>

                   Price

DY = 0.25/24

DY = 1.04%

Suppose the September Eurodollar futures contract has a price of 96.4. You plan to borrow $50m for 3 months in September at LIBO
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

Definition of simple terminologies ;

  • A contractual agreement is an agreement which is made on future exchanges in order to buy or sell goods at a fixed price at a specified time period.
  • LIBOR stands for London interbank offered rate which is the rate at which  banks borrow money from other banks in london market. this rate is a fixed term by the british bankers association.

a) The implied LIBOR of the September Eurodollar futures of 96.4 is =  100 96.4 /400-=0.9%

(b) As we want to borrow money, it implies buying protection against high interest rates, which means low Eurodollar future prices. We will short the Eurodollar contract.

c) Number of contact to be entered into = One Eurodollar contract which is based on a $1 million 3-month deposit. As such, entering into hedge a loan of $50M, will automatically implies entering into 50 short contracts.

d) A true 3-month LIBOR of 1% means an annualized position (annualized by market conventions) of 1% x 4 = 4%. Therefore, our 50 short contracts will pay: [96.4 − (100 − 4) × 100 × $25] × 50 = $50,000.

The increased interest rate has  made the loan more expensive as such, the loss to exposure  will be compensated hence we have to pay the following amount ; ($50,000,000 x 0.01) - $50,000

= $450,000

A self-employed person deposits $2,000 annually in a retirement account (called a Keogh or H.R. 10 plan) that earns 8 percent. U
lana [24]

Answer:

$146,212.00  

Explanation:

PMT which is the annual savings is $2000

Rate  is 8%

The annual savings would last for 25 years(65-40)

FVIFA FACTOR=(1+r)^n-1/r

r=8%

n=25

FVIFA FACTOR=(1+8%)^25-1/8%

FVIFA FACTOR=(1.08)^25-1/0.08

FVIFA FACTOR=(6.848475196-1)/0.08=73.106

Amount in the account at retirement=PMT*FVIFA FACTOR

Amount in the account at retirement=$2000*73.106=$146,212.00
