In contrasting equity and efficiency, why do high-tech firms seem to treat their employees better (better wages, benefits, worki

shusha [124]

Answer:

High-tech firms are hiring expensive, sophisticated people who are in high demand compared to fast food franchises and treat them better to avoid losing them to other companies

Explanation:

High-tech firms are hiring expensive, sophisticated people who are in high demand. This brings about a better treatment of their employees because if they do not offer these amenities to employees, they would become employees of other high-tech companies. Individuals with low skill levels do not get high salaries or benefits. They are not in as high demand as highly skilled workers. It is efficient, but many would argue that it is not fair.

Show your work and explain in a full sentence how 4 2-6 is equivalent to 3 8-6.

klemol [59]

Answer:

$4\frac{2}{6} = 3\frac{8}{6} = \frac{26}{6}$

Explanation:

Given

$4\frac{2}{6}$ and $3\frac{8}{6}$

Required

Show that they are equivalent

To do this, we simply convert both fractions to either decimal or improper fraction

Using improper fraction

$4\frac{2}{6} = \frac{6 * 4 + 2}{6}$

$4\frac{2}{6} = \frac{24 + 2}{6}$

$4\frac{2}{6} = \frac{26}{6}$

$3\frac{8}{6} = \frac{6 *3+8}{6}$

$3\frac{8}{6} = \frac{18+8}{6}$

$3\frac{8}{6} = \frac{26}{6}$

After converting both to improper fraction, we have:

$4\frac{2}{6} = 3\frac{8}{6} = \frac{26}{6}$

<em>Hence, both are equivalent</em>

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The value per share of common stock today is $23.94

Explanation:

To calculate the worth of the stock today, we first need to calculate the value of firm using FCF and then calculate the value of equity by deducting the market value of debt and preferred stock from the value of firm. Then we will divide the value of equity by the number of common stock shares.

Value of firm will be calculated using the discounted cash flows model approach. The value of firm will be,

Value of firm = 780000 * (1+0.1) / (1+0.13) + 780000 * (1+0.1) * (1+0.08) / (1+0.13)^2 + 780000 *(1+0.1)*(1+0.08)*(1+0.07) / (1+0.13)^3 +

[ 780000 *(1+0.1) *( 1+0.08) *(1+0.07) *(1+0.06)) / (0.13 - 0.06)] / (1+0.13)^3

Value of firm = $12,577,754.16

Value of equity = $12,577,754.16 - (2000000 + 1000000) = $9,577,754.159

Value per share = $9,577,754.159 / 400000

Value per share = $23.944 rounded off to $23.94
