Suppose a stock had an initial price of $57 per share, paid a dividend of $1.1 per share during the year, and had an ending shar
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

12.46%

Explanation:

Data provided

Dividend income = $1.1

Ending share per price = $63

Initial price = $57

The computation of the percentage total return is shown below:-

Total return = (Dividend income + (Ending share per price - Initial price)) ÷ Initial price

= ($1.1 + ($63 - $57)) ÷ 57

= ($1.1 + $6) ÷ 57

= $7.1 ÷ 57

= 0.12456

or 12.46%

Which business model has traditionally been used by magazines
Andrej [43]
According to Quora dot com, US magazines are viewed as historically dependent on advertising revenue hence why subscriptions to magazines are historically very low as advertising is used to subsidise cover price or subscription cost.

With the general collapse of print publications in the US, particularly led by the drying up of physical newsstand presence, magazines have a harder time getting into consumer's hands. This means that advertisers are less likely to spend in a publication (readership decreasing) and then advertising revenues go down, making magazines less and less profitable.

I realize this is quit lengthy so I'd sum it up to saying the business model for magazines has traditionally been the selling of advertising space ... Not sure if this is what you're looking for

A financial adviser manages an equity portfolio for an endowment fund, which has an 8.2% return objective. The adviser makes a s
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The endowment fund is not satisfied with the advisor's performance

Explanation:

Judging from a nominal interest rate perspective where return expected of an investment comprises of real rate of return and an extra return which is a compensation for inflation rate in the economy,the endowment fund is not satisfied with performance of the advisor.

The satisfactory rate of return that would be expected of the advisor is computed below:

nominal interest rate=real rate+inflation rate

real rate is 8.2%

inflation rate is 2.9%

nominal interest rate=8.2%+2.9%

                                  =11.10%

My name is Ann [436]

Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as<u>  </u> <u>discouraged worke</u>r

Explanation:

<u>Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as</u>

A <u>discouraged worke</u>r is an individual who has given up looking for employment even though they are perfectly eligible to take up a job but to the repeated failure in finding a job  they have then ceased their search for finding an employment.

Discouraged workers have stopped looking for employment opportunities because they feel that their is no job that suits their qualifications

Since they have stopped searching they are not included in the labor force hence when we see the statistics for unemployment these people are not included there also .So they are called <u>Discouraged Workers</u>

<u> The correct formula for calculating the unemployment​ rate</u>

<u>(</u>

<u> D) Neither formula is used to calculate the unemployment rate</u>

The formula for Unemployment rate is

==> U=Unemployed People/Labor force*100

Net Present Value Method
arsen [322]

Answer:

year               net cash flow

0                     -$150,000

1                        $80,000

2                       $65,000

3                       $50,000

4                       $40,000

A) NPV = -$150,000 + ($80,000 x .87) + ($65,000 x .756) + ($50,000 x .658) + ($40,000 x .572) = -$150,000 + $69,600 + $49,140 + $32,900 + $22,880 = -$150,000 + $174,520 = $24,520

B) Yes , because the net present value indicates that the return on the proposal is greater than the minimum desired rate of return of 15%. Since the NPV is positive ($24,520), it means that the cash inflows are higher than the cash outflows when we use a 15% discount rate.
