Answer:

$77.34

Explanation:

The computation of the current stock price is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

EPS for year 2 = Dividend at year 2 ÷ Payout Ratio

= $1.96 ÷  0.40

= $4.90

Now  the price at year 2 is

Price at year 2 ÷ EPS at year 2 = PE ratio

Price at year 2 ÷ $4.90 = 18.95

Price at year 2 = $92.855

Now finally the current stock price is

= Dividend at year 1  ÷ (1 + rate of interest) + Dividend at year 2 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^2 + Price at year 2 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^2

= $1.81 ÷ 1.119 + $1.96 ÷ 1.119^2 + $92.855 ÷ 1.119^2

= $77.34

If the required reserve ratio is 2.50 percent, what is the monetary multiplier? if the monetary multiplier is 5, what is the req
ludmilkaskok [199]

If the required reserve ratio is 2.50 percent, the monetary multiplier is 40.

The money multiplier gives us the ratio of deposits to reserves (i.e. 1/R). That means, if the reserve ratio is 2.50% (i.e. 0.025), the money multiplier is 40 (i.e. 1/0.025). Thus, an initial deposit of USD 1,000 will end up creating a total of USD 40,000 in new money.

If the monetary multiplier is 5, the required reserve ratio is 20%.

Playing with the original multiplier formula, we can derive that R=1/m (m is money multiplier). If the money multiplier is 5, then the reserve ratio is 20% (i.e. 1/5 or 0.20).

Godart Co. issued $4.5mn notes payable as a scrip dividend that matured in five years. At maturity, each shareholder of Godart's
Ghella [55]

Answer:

$6,750,000

Explanation:

Since it is stated in the question that the 3mn shares will be paid the principal and interest at maturity, and it is not stated the note is compounded, we apply the following simple calculation:

Amount to pay = $4,500,000 + [($4,500,000 × 10%) × 5 years]

                         = $4,500,000 + [$450,000 × 5 years]

                         = $4,500,000 + 2,250,000

Amount to pay = $6,750,000

Therefore, the amount should be paid to the stockholders at the end of the fifth year is $6,750,000.

There are four consumers willing to pay the following amounts for haircuts, and there are four haircutting businesses with the f
Softa [21]

Based on efficiency, the businesses that should cut hair are the A and C; moreover, to meet the demand, each firm will need to offer at least two haircuts.

The supply of a product or the units of a product that is offered to potential customers should always meet the number of real customers. In the same way, the price of the product should meet the price customers are willing to pay.

In this context, the best is that only firm A and C cut hair, this is because their prices per cut ($25 and $30) match the consumers' willingness to pay this includes Lorenzo ($35), Gilberto ($50), Juanita ($40) and Neha ($25).

  • Firm A can cut Neha's and Lorenzo's hair
  • Firm C can cut Gilberto's and Juanita's hair

Moreover, this implies each firm needs to do at least 2 haircuts to cover all the possible customers.

In the case of firms B and D, the price per cut is high ($40 - $45). Based on this,  they should not cut hair as only a few customers can pay for this service, and this would be inefficient.
