Answer:

Small companies don't have middle management, so it is entirely appropriate for senior management to implement strategy and guide employees directly.

The purpose of management is nothing to do with power, but rather to create, plan and execute the vision and strategy of the organization through the workforce and technology.

6.Compute the present value of these dividends if the required rate of return is 14 percent.

1. $2.34

2. $2.54

3. $2.63

4. $2.73

5. $2.82

Explanation:

Last Dividend paid = $2.15

Growth rate:

First two years = 24%

Following three years = 18%

FV of Dividend = PV ( 1 + g )^n

Dividend for the 1st year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^1 = $2.67

Dividend for the 2nd year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^2 = $3.31

Dividend for the 3rd year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^1 = $3.90

Dividend for the 4th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^2 = $4.60

Dividend for the 5th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^3 = $5.43

6.The present value of these dividends

Present value of dividends can be calculated by following formula:

PV = FV / ( 1 + r )^n

FV = Dividend for the year

r = rate of return = 14%

n = number of years

1. PV = $2.98 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^1 = $2.98 / ( 1.14 )^1 = $2.98 / 1.14 = $2.34

2. PV = $3.31 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^2 = $3.31 / ( 1.14 )^2 = $3.31 / 1.2996 = $2.54

3. PV = $3.90 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^3 = $3.90 / ( 1.14 )^3 = $3.90 / 1.481544 = $2.63

4. PV = $4.60 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^4 = $4.60 / ( 1.14 )^4 = $4.60 / 1.68896 = $2.73

5. PV = $5.43 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^5 = $5.43 / ( 1.14 )^5 = $5.43 / 1.925416 = $2.82

A firm knows that Mike’s income elasticity of demand for hair ties is 5 while for Sally it is 0.2. A firm can reason that a hair

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

1) Luxury

2) Necessity

Explanation:

1)The hair tie is a luxury good for Mike because Mike has a income elasticity of 5 which means that if mike's income decreases 1% his demand for the good decreases 5%, which shows that his demand for this good is highly sensitive to his income which is a characteristic of luxury goods, as you only buy luxury goods when your income increases.

2) It is a necessity for Sally because her income elasticity to the good is 0.2 which means every 1% change in income changes her demand by just 0.2%, which shows demand is not very sensitive to income and the quantity she buys them in dont rely much on her income, which is a sign of a necessity, you buy a certain amount of necessities regardless of your income.

torisob [31]

Answer:

There is a loss of 18,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of boot in this transaction.

We proceed as follows;

We must identify that to buy one asset, we exchanged one asset with another

Mathematically;

loss or gain = asset given up - Discount received in exchange

From the question we identify the following;

value of asset given up = 225,000 - 195,000 = 30,000

Discount received in exchange = 12,000

Thus, loss or gain is

= 30,000 - 12,000

So, there's a loss of 18,000
