Answer: Required return = 15%

Explanation:

Current Price using the constant-growth DDM is;

Current Price = Expected dividend / ( Required return - growth rate)

This can therefore be used to calculate the required return.

Growth rate = Return on Equity * Retention ratio

= 15% *  ( 1 - payout ratio )

=  15% * (1 - 40%)

= 15% * 60%

= 9%

Expected dividend = Earnings per share * Payout ratio

= 3 * 40%

= $1.20

Using the formula;

Current Price = Expected dividend / ( Required return - growth rate)

20 = 1.20 / (Required return - 9%)

20 *  (Required return - 9%) = 1.20

Required return - 9% = 1.20 / 20

Required return = (1.20 / 20) + 9%

Required return = 15%

Suppose the price elasticity of demand for cereal is negative −1.03. If​ so, then the demand for cereal is (unit-elastic, elasti
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The demand for cereal is elastic.

The demand for the magazine is inelastic.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to change in price. A negative price elasticity implies that the product is a normal good.

The price elasticity of demand for cereal is −1.03. This means that the demand is price elastic. An elastic demand implies that a change in price will cause more than proportionate change in quantity demanded.

The price elasticity of demand for a particular magazine is −0.72. This means that the demand is price inelastic. An inelastic demand implies that a change in price will cause less than proportionate change in the quantity demanded.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Revenues to be understated.

Explanation:

The accrual basis says that revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred.

In this case, if the legal services have been rendered at the end of the accounting period and no adjusting entry is made there is a situation of understated revenue.

When an accountant says that an amount is understated, it means two things: The amount is not the correct amount, and  the amount is less than the true amount.

The adjusting entry that should be done is:

Debit to the liability account Unearned Service Revenue, and a credit to the revenue account Service Revenue.
