Answer:
Real purchasing power increase= 2.16%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You deposit $1,900 in your savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 3.25%. The inflation rate is 1.09%.
In this example, we have two different and opposite effects. The interest rate increases your purchasing power. If the inflation rate is 0, the purchasing power will increase (in one year) 3.25%.
The inflation rate decreases the purchasing power of nominal income.
Real purchasing power increase= annual interest rate - inflation rate
Real purchasing power increase= 3.25 - 1.09= 2.16%
Answer:
7.8%
Explanation:
The formula and the computation of the return on assets is shown below:
Return on assets = (Net income) ÷ (average of total assets)
where,
Net income is $32,500
And, the average of total assets equal to
= (Beginning assets + ending assets) ÷ 2
= ($405,000 +$425,000) ÷ 2
= $415,000
So, the return on assets is
= $32,500 ÷ $415,000
= 7.8%
Answer:
$29.83
Explanation:
This question requires application of dividend discount model, according to which current value of share is present value of dividends expected in future.
where V2 is the terminal value, present value of dividends growing at constant growth rate,
V2 = Div3 ÷ (r - g)
Div3 = $2.24 × (1 + 2.8%)
= $2.30272
V2 = $2.30272 ÷ (0.102 - 0.028)
= $2.30272 ÷ 0.074
= $31.12
= 2.36 + 1.84 + 25.63
= $29.83
