Answer: 12%

Explanation:

First find the Inflation premium:

= Nominal risk free rate - Real risk free rate

= 13% - 3%

= 10%

Plug it into the following equation:

Inflation premium = { (2 * expected average inflation rate over the next two years) + Inflation rate for third year) } / 3

10% = { (2 * 9%) + 1₃} / 3

3 * 10% =  { (2 * 9%) + 1₃}

30% = 18% + I₃

I₃ = 30% - 18%

I₃ = 12%

Answer:

$660,000

Explanation:

WACC = [wD * kD * (1 - t)] + [wE * kE]

WACC = [(0.77 / 1.77)*6.12%* (1 - 0.40)] + [(1 / 1.77)*11.61%]

WACC = 1.60% + 6.56%

WACC = 8.16%

Present value of annuity = Annuity*[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

Present value of annuity = $1.67*[1-(1.08156745763)^-9]/0.0816

Present value of annuity = $1.67*6.206374532

Present value of annuity = $10.36 million

NPV = Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows

NPV = $10.36 million - $9.7 million

NPV = $660,000

Art, Inc., has 2,500 shares of 5%, $100 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 20,000 shares of $1 par value common stock out
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The amount of dividend received by common stockholders in 2017 = $7500

Explanation:

The preference shares are cumulative which means the 2015 dividend on cumulative preference shares will be paid in the next year when dividend is declatred.

The total dividend on preference shjares is = 2500 * 100 * 0.05 = $12500

In 2016 dividend of 22500 is declared and paid.

Out of this 22500, 12500 relates to prefernece dividend for 2015.

The remaining 10000 relates to 2016 preference dividend. Thus, 2500 of 2016 preference dividned is outstanding and will be paid in 2017.

In 2017 out of 22500, 15000 (12500 + 2500) dividendd is paid to preference share holders.

The amount of dividend received by common stockholders in 2017 = 22500 - 15000 = $7500
