Answer:

A). 17.13 %

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual Dividend for the first year = $.58,

Annual Dividend for the second year = $.66

Annual Dividend for the third year = $.72

Annual Dividend for the fourth year = $.75

The current price per share = $10.08

To find;

The cost of equity = ?

Procedure:

(0.66 - 0.58)/0.58 = 0.137931034

(0.72 - 0.66)/0.66 = 0. 0909090909

(0.75 - 0.72)/0.72 = 0.0416666667

g = (0.137931034 + 0. 0909090909 + 0.0416666667)/3

= 0.0901689305

R_{e} = {(0.75 * 1.0901689305)/10.08} + 0.0901689305

= 0.17128269

∵ 17.13% is the cost of equity.

Suzanne, Kyle, and Monique have been arguing for days over how they are going to divide up the responsibilities for their group
motikmotik

Answer:

Emergence.

Explanation:

In this context, it can be said that Suzanne, Kyle and Monique are in the emergence phase of group decision making.

This phase occurs right after the conflict phase, in the emergence phase the ideas will be finally defined and there will be a consensus among the team.

At this stage it is common for the individual interests and needs of the team members to be set aside in favor of the team's interests.

Therefore, project members also tend to adopt a more softening stance and opinions with the intention of not appearing dominant in relation to the project.

The following statements are true. Explain why. a. If a bond’s coupon rate is higher than its yield to maturity, then the bond w
krok68 [10]

Answer:

A Bond's current market value represented by B_{0} is the present value of a bond as on today. Present value of a bond is it's future cash flows in the form of coupon payments and principal repayment discounted at investor's expectation in the market also referred to as Yield to maturity(YTM).

Present value of a bond is given by the following equation,

B_{0} = \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{1} }  +\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{2} } \ +\ ......+\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} } \  +\ \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} }

where C= Annual coupon payments

YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds

RV = Redemption value of bond

n = number of years to maturity

<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>

Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.

<u>b. If a bond's coupon rate is lower than it's yield to maturity, then the bond's price will increase over it's remaining maturity.</u>

Similarly, if a bond pays lower rate of interest than the market rate of interest on similarly priced bonds, the bond shall sell at lower than it's face value and the price will increase over the remaining life of such bonds.

Masja [62]

Answer:

Trusper Company

The total amount of dividends that will be paid to common stockholders during Year 2 is:

$40,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

10% cumulative preferred stock = $200,000 ($200 * 1,000)

Common stock = $3,000 (3,000 * $1)

Dividends in Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $20,000 ($200,000 * 10%)

Dividends outstanding after Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $15,000 ($20,000 - $5,000)

Dividends for Year 2 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $35,000 ($20,000 + $15,000).

Total dividend paid to common stockholders during Year 2 = $40,000 ($75,000 - $35,000)

b) The unpaid cumulative preferred stock dividend of $15,000 for Year 1 will be added to the dividend of the Year 2.  The common stockholders are not paid any dividends in Year 1.  But in Year 2, they will get $40,000 after the cumulative preferred stock dividends are paid.
