ee has prepared depreciation schedules for this asset using three different methods to compare the results of using one method with the results of using other methods.
You are to assume that the following schedules have been correctly prepared for this asset using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the sum-of-the-years'-digits method, and (3) the double-declining-balance method.

Answer:

A) to determine the cost of the asset being depreciated we must use the first year's depreciation using the double declining method to find 40% of the asset's value:

40% of the asset's value = $29,200

asset's value = $29,200 / 40% = $73,000

B) salvage value = asset's value - total depreciation = $73,000 - $65,700 = $7,300

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

Dividends through year 1 to 5:

D1 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^1 = 2.80

D2 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 = 3.63

D3 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^1 = 4.29

D4 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^2 = 8.58

D5 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^3 = 12.86

PV (D1) = 2.80

PV (D2) = 3.63 *PVIF = 3.63 * 0.87719 = 3.19

PV (D3) = 4.29 * 0.76947 = 3.30

PV (D4) = 8.58 * 0.67497 = 5.79

PV (D5) = 12.86 * 0.59208 = 7.62

Total of all PV's = 22.69

For each of the following, compute the present value: (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Present value = FV / (1 + r)^t

1. PV = $19,415 / (1 + 0.07)^15

PV = $19,415 / (1.07)^15

PV = $19,415 / 2.759031

PV = $7,036.89

2. PV = $47,382 / (1 + 0.11)^8

PV = $47,382 / (1.11)^8

PV = $47,382 / 2.3045378

PV = $20,560.31

3. PV = $312,176 / (1 + 0.10)^13

PV = $312,176 / (1.10)^13

PV = $312,176 / 3.4522712

PV = $90,426.27

4. PV = $629,381 / (1 + 0.13)^25

PV = $629,381 / (1.13)^25

PV = $629,381 / 21.230542

PV = $29,645.07

Suppose DeepMind Inc. will pay $1.50 per share in dividends next year. The require return on the stock is 10% and its dividends
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

C. All else being equal, the growth rate of the dividends is greater than 2%

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the fair price of a stock with a constant growth in dividends is as follows,

  • P = D1 / r-g
  • Where D1 is the dividend next period
  • r is the required rate of return
  • g is the growth rate in dividends
  • P = 1.5 / 0.1 - 0.02 = 18.75
  • We are taking 1.5 as D1 as it is the dividend per share DeepMind will pay next year.

So, we will be willing to pay more than 18.75 if the fair price per share today is greater than 18.75. We check all the 3 options.

A. say the required rate is 10.1%

  • P = 1.5 / (0.101 - 0.02) = 18.52
  • So if the required rate of return increases from 10%, the fair price per share is falling and we will be willing to pay less than 18.75 per share.

B. P = 1.2 / (0.1 - 0.02) = 15

  • If D1 = 1.2,the fair price per share will be 15 which is less so we will not be willing to pay more than 15 for such share.

C. Say the growth rate in dividends is 2.1%

  • P = 1.5 / (0.1 - 0.021) = 18.99
  • The fair price per share increased to 18.99 if the growth rate in dividend increases by 0.1 percentage point. Thus, C is the correct answer
