Using the Gordon Growth Model (a.k.a. Dividend Discount Model), the intrinsic value of a stock can be calculated, exclusive of current market conditions. In this model, the value of the stock is equated to the present value of the stock's future dividends.
<span>Value of stock (P0) = D1 / (k - g)
</span>where
D1<span> = </span><span>expected annual </span>dividend<span> per share in the following year </span>
<span>k = the investor's discount rate or required </span>rate of return
g = the expected dividend growth rate
<u>From the problem:</u>
The value of stock is $10.80
D1 is $0.40
g is 0.08
k is unknown
Solution:
Rearranging the equation for Gordon Growth Model to solve for k:
k = (D1/P0) + g
Substituting the variables with the given values,
k = (0.40/10.80) + 0.08
k = 0.1170
In percent form, this is
0.1170 * 100% = 11.70%.
Thus, the total rate of return on the stock is 11.70%.
Answer:
1,000,000
Explanation:
As there are constant returns to scale the cost to produce a greater output will grow following a linear fucntion thus,
if 100 units units are produced at a cost of 200,000 dolllars
then 500 units will be produced five times that amount:
200,000 x 500/100 = 200,000 x 5 = 1,000,000
The total cost for 500 units will be a million dollars
Answer:
See the explanation below.
Explanation:
The court likely to rule in favor of Ewing.
The reason is that the enough consideration that gives backing to a promise in this case is generally the waiver of a legal right to eat to obesity as requested by the other party.
The evidence that Ewing has lost 154 pounds in weight over the stipulated period is a consideration that sufficient enough under the law. The payment of $10 pound that Ewing has lost is a promise. The fact that Ewing also benefit from the weight loss does not matter.
Answer:
The break-even point is $25,900 units
Explanation:
In this question we use the formula of break-even point in unit sales which is shown below:
= (Fixed expenses) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)
where,
Contribution margin per unit for product A = (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) ×product mix
= ($13.50 - $6.15) × 40%
= $2.94
Contribution margin per unit for product B = (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) ×product mix
= ($16.75 - $6.85) × 60%
= $5.94
So, the total contribution margin would be equal to
= $2.94 + $5.94
= $8.88
And, the fixed cost is $230,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would be equal to
= $230,000 ÷ $8.88
= $25,900 units
