Answer:

Capital gain = $2.16

Explanation:

The return on equity is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.  

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.  

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.  

Therefore, capital gain  as follows:  

Capital gain = $45.36-43.20

Capital gain = $2.16

Which type of account typically has very high liquidity, low or no interest, and low minimum balance?
faltersainse [42]
I would say that it is a CHECKING ACCOUNT. The answer for this would be option A. This type of account can be accessed anytime which makes its liquidity very high, but on the other side, this has very low interest and the minimum balance required is also low. Hope this helps.

Our basketball team has finished $80\%$ of its season, during which we won $40\%$ of the games we played. What percent of the re
masya89 [10]

Answer:

90%

Explanation:

Let x be the total number of matches,

Given,

80% of games were finished,

So, the number of finished games = 80% of x = 0.8x

∴ Remained games= x - 0.8x = 0.2x

Now, 40% of 80% of games were won,

So, the winning games in 0.8x matches = 40% of 0.8x

= 0.4 × 0.8x

= 0.32x

In order to finish games with the same number of wins as losses,

Winning percentage in all games must be 50%,

Thus, the total winning games = 50% of x = 0.5x

Let y be the winning percentage in 0.2x games,

So, the total winning games in 0.2x games = \frac{y\times 0.2x}{100}

∵ Number of winning matches in 80% games + number of winning matches in 20% = total winning matches

⇒ 0.32x + \frac{0.2xy}{100}= 0.5x

\frac{0.2xy}{100}=0.18x

0.2y=18

\implies y=90

Hence, the percent of winning the in the remaining games must be 90%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of new equipment and timbers = $500,000

Working capital required  = $100,000

Annual net cash receipts = $120,000

Cost to construct new roads in three years = $40,000

Salvage value of equipment in four years = $65,000

Estimated useful life of mine = 4 years

Working capital released in four years = $100,000

Required rate of return = 20%

                                                           Cash Flows   PV factor  Present Value

Cost of new equipment and timbers  $500,000      1               -$500,000

Working capital required                        100,000       1                 -100,000
