Explanation:
Answer:
A.50%.
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand formula is:
PED = Change in quantity demanded / change in price
plugging the amounts into the formula we obtain:
2 = X / 25%
Now, simply solve for X:
2 x 25% = X
50% = X
Thus, the total quantity demanded would increase by 50%
Answer:
Dividends are fixed. ⇒ Consistent with Debt
Fixed dividends makes preferred shares consistent with debt because debt repayments are made in equal payments as well.
Usually has no specified maturity date ⇒ Consistent with Equity.
Equity has no set maturity date unlike debt and preferred stock has no maturity date either so is much like equity in this regard.
Cost of preferred stock.
Preferred stock is like a perpetuity. The cost of preferred stock is therefore:
= Constant dividend / Price of stock
= 13 / 130.45
= 9.97%
= 10%
Answer:
$1,818,181.81
Explanation:
Data provided:
Amount that will be provided a year = $50,000
Expected rate of return = 2.75%
Now,
The Present value of perpetuity is given as:
Present value of perpetuity = 
on substituting the respective values, we get
Present value of perpetuity = 
or
Present value of perpetuity = $1,818,181.81
Hence,
The amount that must be deposited today to fund this gift is $1,818,181.81
Answer:
The value of the stock today is $20
Explanation:
Using the CAPM equation, we first calculate the required rate of retunr on the stock.
The equation for CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rpM is the risk premium on market
- Beta * rpM is the risk premium on stock
r = 0.05 + 0.04
r = 0.09 or 9%
The value of the stock can be calculated using the zero growth model of DDM. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. As the dividend from the stock is expected to remain constant through out to an indefinite period, the value of the stock today is,
P0 = Dividend / r
P0 = 1.8 / 0.09
P0 = $20
