Identifying a target strategy
Answer:
Idol Staff, Rail Haul, Poker-R-Us
Explanation:
The standard deviation of a stock is a measure of the volatility of the stock or simply put, a measure of risk of the stock.
The idea of using standard deviation as a measure of stock risk is in the relation of the stock to its returns.
The farther the standard deviation is from the revenue, the more risky or at risk the stock is.
From the above question, Idol staff has the highest level of risk of 20% (i.e 35-15). Next up is Rail Haul with a risk level of 13% (i.e 25-12). the stock with tthe lowest risk level is Poker-R-Us with 11% (i.e 20-9).
Cheers.

Answer:
The maximum that should be paid for the stock today is $45 per share.
Explanation:
To calculate the current share price or the maximum that should be paid for the stock today, we will use the dividend discount model approach.
The dividend discount model (DDM) estimates the value of a share/stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. We will use the two stage growth model of DDM here as the growth in dividends of the stock is divided into two stages.
The formula for current price under two stage growth model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n +
[( D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2)) / (r - g2)] / (1+r)^n
Where,
g1 is initial growth rate
g2 is the constant growth rate
r is the required rate of return
So, the price of the stock today will be,
P0 = 2 * (1+0.20) / (1+0.12) + 2 * (1+0.20)^2 / (1+0.12)^2 +
[( 2 * (1+0.20)^2 * (1+0.06)) / (0.12 - 0.06)] / (1+0.12)^2
P0 = $45
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Capital is what is used to start a business. It is what the owner's contribution in the business. In advanced class, it is called stock or equity. Capital is usually from the owner's savings. But if this money is borrowed either from an individual or a bank, the person is a borrower while the other party is the lender.
Option A is incorrect because money raised from someone makes the person borrowing a borrower and not a saver.
Option C and D are incorrect because the items needed for the business are not consumables, they are needed for the smooth running of the business, hence they are not consumption.
