- Companies buyback shares for a variety of reasons, including firm consolidation, increased equity value, and to appear more financially appealing.
-The disadvantage of buybacks is that they are frequently financed with debt, putting a burden on cash flow.
-Stock repurchases can have a modestly favorable impact on the economy as a whole.
Answer:
6.80%
Explanation:
The average nominal returns is the sum of the returns for 5 years divided by the number of returns considered( i.e 5, 5 returns for 5 years)
average nominal returns=(6%-13%+24%+18%+15%)/5
average nominal returns=10.00%
The Fisher's equation is shown thus:
(1 + i) = (1 + r) (1 + π)
i=nominal return=10.00%
r=average real return=the unknown
π=inflation rate=3%
(1+10.00%)=(1+r)*(1+3%)
1.10=(1+r)*1.03
1+1=1.10/1.03
r=(1.10/1.03)-1
r=6.80%
Answer:
$53,700
Explanation:
Direct manufacturing cost = (Direct material per unit + Direct labor per unit) * Units produced
=($5.20 + $3.75) * 6,000 units
=$8.95 * 6,000
=$53,700
The total amount of direct manufacturing cost incurred is closest to $53,700
