Answer:
affect nominal but not real variables. This view that money is ultimately neutral is consistent with classical theory.
Explanation:
This idea is held by classical economists (not by most economists) since they believe in the quantitative theory of money:
MV = PQ
- M = quantity of money
- V = velocity of money
- P = price level
- Q = quantity of goods
Classical theory was abandoned 90 years ago (according to classical theory, recessions were not possible and couldn't exist, but then the Great Depression came and the impossible became true). Neo-classical or monetarists appeared in the 1960s, and lately, neo-neo-classical appeared with George W. Bush. The problem with the quantitative theory is that it needs the following things to be true in order to hold, and empirical evidence over the last 90 years showed that none of them are true:
- the velocity of money has to be constant (AND IT IS NOT CONSTANT)
- real output is independent on money supply (NOT TRUE)
- causation goes from money to prices (MODERN ECONOMISTS BELIEVE IT IS THE OTHER WAY)
Answer:
A decrease in cash flows from financing activities
Explanation:
When cash dividend is paid,
It is an outflow of cash as paid, therefore it will decrease the cash flows.
Further dividend is paid to equity, or preference capital raised for business, which is a financing activity.
Therefore, a cash dividend paid to shareholders will result in decrease in cash flow from financing activities.
Whereas cash dividend received is investing activity.
Final Answer
A decrease in cash flows from financing activities.
Answer:
Stock value today = $1.21
Explanation:
Current Dividend = D
= $1.13
After 5 years that is D
= $0.50
Since expected growth = 0
Therefore
P
= D / Ke = 0.5/18% = $2.77
Its present value will be 
= $1.21
Stock value today = $1.21
Answer:
D. $0.93
Explanation:
Upmove (U) = High price/current price
= 42/40
= 1.05
Down move (D) = Low price/current price
= 37/40
= 0.925
Risk neutral probability for up move
q = (e^(risk free rate*time)-D)/(U-D)
= (e^(0.02*1)-0.925)/(1.05-0.925)
= 0.76161
Put option payoff at high price (payoff H)
= Max(Strike price-High price,0)
= Max(41-42,0)
= Max(-1,0)
= 0
Put option payoff at low price (Payoff L)
= Max(Strike price-low price,0)
= Max(41-37,0)
= Max(4,0)
= 4
Price of Put option = e^(-r*t)*(q*Payoff H+(1-q)*Payoff L)
= e^(-0.02*1)*(0.761611*0+(1-0.761611)*4)
= 0.93
Therefore, The value of each option using a one-period binomial model is 0.93
Answer:
b) Function
Explanation:
The Dean placed professors in departments based on the subjects they teach or based on their functions in the school. So all professors that function as economics professors are placed in the same department. This is an example of grouping employees by functions.
In geographic grouping, professors would be grouped based on the different regions they teach.
In product grouping, employees are placed in groups based on the product they produce.
