Answer:
The first part of the question is missing:
"We all learn values from sources such as family, religion, and school. Why might these..."
To be honest, most of the time business decisions are not clean cut ethical or unethical, even if you are not doing anything wrong or illegal. When you are doing business you will try to make the largest possible profit and money doesn't just appear from no where, if you earn money, you will be taking it away from someone else. In the best case scenario, you will be giving that customer a higher perceived value than the cost of your product or service, so everyone wins.
But many times, not everyone wins. E.g. you manage a construction company and you will bid for a project, hopefully you will win and make money, but others will lose. Empathy is good for marketing, but very bad for finances.
When thousands of jobs are replaced not by Chinese workers, but instead by computers and robots, it's just bad luck for the unemployed. When large stores like Sears go bankrupt while Amazon surges, good for Amazon, bad for Sears.
Answer:
The cost of equity is 9.91%
Explanation:
The constant growth model of the DDM is used to calculate the price of the share or the fair value per share based on a constant growth in dividends and the required rate of return which is also known as cost of equity.
Plugging in the available values in the formual we can calculate the cost of equity or the required rate of return.
73.59 = 4.57 / (r - 0.037)
73.59 * (r - 0.037) = 4.57
73.59r - 2.72283 = 4.57
73.59r = 4.57 + 2.72283
r = 7.29283 / 73.59
r = 0.0991 or 9.91%
My best estimate is 23% or lower.
<span>The sales in 2018 will be $800,000. Let the sales in 2018 be x and 13% increase shows 1.13x and the calculation will be done by dividing 904000 with 1.13 and the answer will be 800000. This is simple calculation as the question is showing that the sales in 2018 were less so that answer is also checked.</span>
