Answer:

IBM could either diversify by the strategy of market penetration, which consists in increasing the market share in a particular sector (in this case, cloud computing) through more marketing efforts.

Or it could integrate horizontally, acquiring a possible competitor that is more advanced in the cloud-computing business. Or even a start-up with good prospects, because with the amount of capital that IBM has, it could more easily expand the start-up operation as a new internal business division.

You purchase a $500 bond that pays 2% coupon yield ($10), and the bond is currently trading for $400. What is the current yield?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer :

2.5%

Step by Step Explanation:

Face value = $500

Coupon yield = 2%

Income earned on he bond each year is at the rate of 2%.

Annual coupon = $10

Current bond price = $400

Formula for current yield = \frac{Annual coupon amount}{Current bond price}

                                        = \frac{10}{400} ×100

                                        =  2.5%

Hence, the current yield is 2.5%

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Total return equals earnings multiplied by the dividend payout rate.

Explanation:

Total return is calculated as appreciation of price plus dividend paid, divided by the original price of the stock.

The income gained on a stock is the increase in its value along with dividend that is paid out. This is compared to the original price (denominator) to determine how much returns is realised on the stock.

Mathematically

Returns= {(New price- Old price) + Dividend} ÷ Old price

So the statement total return equals earnings multiplied by the dividend payout rate is false
