Answer:
Quarterly dividend (D) = $0.75
Annual return (Ke) = 10.5% = 0.105
Quarterly return = 0.105/4 = 0.02625
Current market price = <u>Quarterly dividend</u>
Quarterly return
=<u> $0.75</u>
0.02625
= $28.57
Explanation:
Current market price is the ratio of quarterly dividend paid divided by quarterly return.
Answer:
buying a second house
Explanation:
bonds have a high chance of providing returns whereas the housing market is very hard to predict
Answer:
It is characteristic of CAPITAL goods that they are not used up in the short run. A society can choose to SACRIFICE some quality of life now BY PURCHASING fewer consumer goods ANS SAVING MONEY in order to build up its stock of capital goods. This will lead to a HIGHER QUALITY OF LIFE and more consumer goods PURCHASED AND CONSUMED later on.
Explanation:
A consumer can choose between saving and spending money, that is measured by the marginal propensity to consume or the marginal propensity to save. Money that is spent now, will provide a certain satisfaction in the present, but nothing in the future. Money saved will not provide a certain satisfaction in the present, but should provide much more satisfaction in the future since it should grow as time passes.
Answer:
A. NPV for A= $61,658.06
NPV for B = $25,006.15
B. 1.36
1.17
Project A
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator
for project A :
Cash flow in
Year 0 = $(172,325)
Year 1 41,000
Year 2 47,000
Year 3 85,295
Year 4 86,400
Year 5 56,000
I = 10%
NPV = $61,658.06
for project B
year 0 = $ (145,960)
Cash flow in
Year 1 27,000
Year 2 52,000
Year 3 50,000
Year 4 71,000
Year 5 28,000
I = 10%
NPV = $25,006.15
profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment
for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36
For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17
The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Answer:
Part 1
total incremental cost of making 90,000 units = $388,000
total incremental cost of buying 90,000 units = $396,000
Part 2
There is a cost advantage of $8,000 of making than buying, therefore the company should continue to manufacture the part.
Explanation:
total incremental cost of making 90,000 units
Variable costs are ($3.20 x 90,000 units) $288,000
Fixed Costs $100,000
Total $388,000
total incremental cost of buying 90,000 units
Purchase Price ($4.40 x 90,000 units) $396,000
Total $396,000
Decision :
There is a cost advantage of $8,000 of making than buying, therefore the company should continue to manufacture the part.
