If GDP is $15 trillion, how many years will it take for GDP to increase to $30 trillion if annual growth is 2 percent

1 answer:

8 0

Y = original value • growth ^(time/period of growth)

30000000000000 = 15000000000000 • (1+0.02)^(x/1)

Divide both sides by 15 trillion

2 = (1.02)^(x)

take logarithm of both sides

log2 = log1.02^x

Bring x down using log law

log2 = xlog1.02

Divide both sides by log1.02

x = 35

Dove, Inc., had additions to retained earnings for the year just ended of $643,000. The firm paid out $40,000 in cash dividends,

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Earnings for the year = Addition to retained earnings + Dividend paid = $643,000 + $40,000 = $683,000

a. Earnings per share = Earnings / No of shares = $683,000 / 750,000 = 0.91

Dividend per share = Dividend / No of shares = $40,000 / 750,000 = 0.05

Book value per share = Ending equity / No of shares = $7,380,000 / 750,000 = $9.84

b. Market price per share is 30.8. Market to book ratio = $30.80 / $9,84 = $3.13

c. Price earning ratio = $30.80/$0.91 = $33.82

Total sales = $10,680,000, Sales per share = 14.24

Price sales ratio = Market price / Sales = $30.80 / $14.24 = $2.16

XYZ Company earned operating income of $1,500,000 before income taxes. Capital employed equaled $10,000,000, of which $1,000,000

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The answer is creating wealth, with the economic value added is $390,000

Explanation:

The company WACC is: Percentage of mortgage bond in capital employed x Cost of mortgage bond x ( 1 - tax rate) + Percentage of unsecured bond in capital employed x Cost of unsecured bond x ( 1 - tax rate) + Percentage of common stock in capital employed x cost of common stock

In which: Percentage of mortgage bond in capital employed = 1,000,000/10,000,000 = 10%

Percentage of unsecured bond in capital employed = 3,000,000/10,000,000 = 30%;

Percentage of common stock in capital employed = (10,000,000 - 1,000,000 - 3,000,000) /10,000,000 = 60%

Cost of common stock = Risk free rate + Risk premium = 10% + 5% = 15%;

Tax rate = 40%

Thus, WACC = 10% x 8% x ( 1- 40%) + 30% x 9% x (1-40%) + 60% x 15% = 11.10%.

Thus, Capital cost per year: Capital employed x WACC = 10,000,000 x 11.10% = $1,110,000.

Economic value added = Operating Income - Capital cost = 1,500,000 - 1,110,000 = $390,000.
