Explanation:

This rest point is called the steady state. At this state investment is equal to depreciation. In solow growth model, an economy in steady state is of a stable size or fluctuates just a little.

Output, population, capital stock, saving, investment, and technical progress, all grow at a constant rate or are constant. An economy gets to a steady state after a period of growth or after a downsizing period.

Suppose Stark Ltd. just issued a dividend of $2.24 per share on its common stock. The company paid dividends of $1.80, $1.98, $2

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Ans, The cost of the company’s cost of equity capital using the arithmetic average growth rate is 10.63% and using the geometric average of the growth rate is 10.60%

Explanation:

Hi, this is the equation we need to solve in order to find the company’s cost of equity capital.

$r=\frac{Dividend}{Price} +g$

As you can see, we almost have everything, the only problem here is "g", its growth rate, so let´s find "g" using the arithmetic average, but first, we need to find the growth rate for every period, the formula is

$g=\frac{(FinalDividend-PastDividend}{PastDividend}$

Therefore, we need to find 4 g´s, let´s call them g1, g2, g3 and g4:

$g1=\frac{(1.98-1.80)}{1.80} =0.10$

$g2=\frac{(2.05-1.98)}{1.98} =0.0354$

$g3=\frac{(2.16-2.05)}{2.05} =0.0537$

$g4=\frac{(2.24-2.16)}{2.16} =0.0370$

So the average is:

$Average(g)=\frac{0.10+0.0354+0.0537+0.0370}{4} =0.0565$

Therefore, the average growth rate is 5.65%

And the company’s cost of equity is:

$r=\frac{2.24}{45} +0.0565=0.1063$

so, if the average growth rate is found by using the arithmetic average is 10.63%.

Now, let´s find the geometric average

$g(average)=\sqrt[4]{(1+0.10)(1+0.0354)(1+0.0537)(1+0.0370)} -1=0.0562$

therefore, using the geometric average to find the growth rate, the company’s cost of equity is:

$r=\frac{2.24}{45} +0.0562=0.1060$

using the geometric average, the company’s cost of equity is 10.60%

Best of luck.

[30 PTS + BRAINLIEST]

saw5 [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A farmer would want to look at the economic status of the US because his goal is to sell as much wheat as possible and make the most profit. If he pays no attention to the economy and there's a recession but he still sells his wheat at the normal price, people whose stocks are going down and who are losing money will be unable to, and unwilling to, pay the price. Thus, the farmer must inspect the changing economic statuses of the US to determine the best and most effective way to market out his wheat to the public.

Changes in US racial patterns have no impact on the marketing of the farmer's wheat, so A is incorrect.

The number of births per year is also irrelevant, as is the general population growth numbers because these do not affect the way the farmer will market his crops, so B and D are incorrect.

Hope this helps!

Regina Corp. is a property and casualty insurance company in its third year of operations and has a net loss of $100,000. Regina

sergejj [24]

Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

Total Taxable income of first and second year = $10,000 + $30,000 = $40,000

Net loss in 3rd year = $100,000

Net Operating loss carry back = Regina Taxable income Total of first and second year of operations

Net Operating loss carry back = $40,000

Net Operating loss Carry forwards = Net loss - Net Operating loss carry back

Net Operating loss carry forward = $100,000 - $40,000

Net Operating loss carry forward = $60,000

Income tax rate = 40%

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = Net Operating loss carry forward * Income tax rate

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = $60,000 * 40%

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = $24,000 .

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Differential profit Profit = $40,000

Explanation:

<em>The differential operating profit is the difference between the operating profit before the introduction of the product and after the introduction of the new product</em>

<em>Profit = Revenue - costs</em>

Profit before the introduction of the new product

= 2,000,000 - 1,500,000 = 500,000

Profit after the introduction of the new product

New revenue = (2,000,000 + 200,000) = 2,200,000

Cumulative cost = 1,500,000 + 160,000 = 1,660,000

Profit = 2,200,000 - 1,660,000 = 540000

Differential profit Profit = 540,000 - 500,000= $40,000
