Answer:

Perfect competition is a market situation by means of which no supplier can influence or determine the price of a good or service, as long as there is a multiplicity of suppliers who offer a homogeneous good, equivalent to that of the other suppliers. These goods, therefore, would not have differences between them (an example could be the fruit market), and therefore buyers could decide to buy from those sellers who offer the best prices. In this way, perfect competition would be generated between the bidders, who through their price would seek to attract buyers. For this type of competition (in theory, since in practice it is almost impossible) to occur, it requires a market without any type of barriers, with a product with the same characteristics, a high number of market players and abundant information about each of the products.

If a stock's P/E ratio is 13.5 at a time when earnings are $3 per year and the dividend payout ratio is 40%, what is the stock's

REY [17]

Answer:

Price of share = $40.50

Explanation:

P/E ratio describes the price to earnings ratio.

Provided if P/E ratio = 13.5

And Earnings per share = $3 per share.

That means,

$\frac{Price}{Earnings} = 13.5$

$\frac{Price}{3} = 13.5$

Price = 13.5 $\times$ 3 = $40.5

Therefore, it is not dependent on dividend payout ratio, and the price = $40.50

. A poor credit score can result in:

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

- All of the above

Explanation:

This is the best answer for this question because a poor credit score can result in difficulty finding a job, renting an apartment, and obtaining credit in the future. I didn't see anything about higher interest charges, but one can logically conclude that that would also be affected

A financial analyst is in the process of reviewing four investments projects for one of his clients. The net present cash values

inysia [295]

Answer:

Consider the following calculation

Explanation:

All projects having positive NPVs, thus all projects are feasible.

(All figures are in $' million)

Funds required to invest in all projects are

First year = 6 + 2 + 4 + 10 = 22 & available fund for first year is only 20.

Second year = 8 + 4 + 8 + 6 = 36 & available fund for second year is only 13.

In these type of situations we use Profitability Index to decide which projects are selected and which are to be skipped.

Profitablilty index = PV of cash inflow/ PV of cash outflows

But in this such information is not given to calculate Profitability index, thus we are calculating here NPV per One $ of investment.

thus NPV per One $ of investment = NPV of project / Investment in Project

Note: We are taking here value of investment in project for both two year with out taking effect of time value of money as no discount rate is provided in the question.

CHECK THE EXCEL ATTACHED

Total fund available with investor = 20+13 = 33

Total fund required for Project 4 & Project 1= 16 + 14 =30

thus he can invest in only project 4 & Project 1, for investing in next profitable project i.e. project 2 he requires $6 million but he has only $3 million in his hands.

Thus the optimal solution for the client is to invest in Project 4 & Project 1.

Thus Funds available in first year = 20, Investment in First year = 10+6 = 16, Funds remains in hand =4

Funds available in second year = 4+ 13= 17, Investment in second year =6+8= 14, funds remains in hand = 3

NPV from total investment = 80 + 50 = 130
