Answer:

9.68 percent

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the firm's cost of equity

Using this formula

Cost of equity=[(Annual dividend×Increase in dividends×/Current price of common stock]+Dividends

Let plug in the formula

Cost of equity=[($1.22 × 1.024)/$17.15] + 0.024

Cost of equity=($1.24928/$17.15)+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0728+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0968*100

Cost of equity=9.68 percent

Therefore the firm's cost of equity is 9.68 percent

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

consumer surplus will decrease.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is defined as the difference between the price customers are willing to pay for a product and what they actually pay.

On the demand and supply curve it is indicated by the shaded area between equillibrum and demand curve as illustrated in the attached diagram.

For example let's assume the price a customer was willing to pay for a product was $50 and market price was $30

Initial consumer surplus= 50- 30= $20

Assume bmarket price increase to $40

The new consumer surplus is= 50- 40

Present consumer surplus= $10

So a price increase causes a decrease in the consumer surplus.

Imagine that a local water company issued $10,000 ten-year bond at an interest rate of 6%. You are thinking about buying this bo
mylen [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The $10,000 is the face value of the bond. Using a financial calculator, input the following to calculate the price at a year before maturity; i.e. at year 9;

Time to maturity; N = 10 - 9 = 1

Annual interest rate; I/Y = 9%

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 0

Face value of the bond; FV = 10,000

then compute present value ; CPT PV = $9,174.31

Therefore, you will pay less than $10,000 for the bond and the price would be  as above $9,174.31
