Answer: D. Todd should include the $500 in 2015 gross income in accordance with the tax benefit rule.
Explanation:
It should be noted that due to the fact that Todd is a cash basis taxpayer, he'll be able to deduct the one-year prepayment for insurance in the year that it was paid, 2014.
In this case, he deducted $1,200, then his net cost will be ($1200 - $500) = $700. In this case, Todd should then include the $500 refund in gross income for 2015 under the tax benefit rule.
Answer:
J = 0.422
K = 0.58
Explanation:
When a portfolio is said to have risk that is equal to market, this means that the beta is equal to 1.
Let us define the weight of stock J = x
Let us define the Weight of stock K = (1-x)
To get the The Beta of portfolio = (x*1.26) + ((1-x)*0.81) = 1
When we open the brackets,
1.26x + 0.81 - .81x = 1
1.26x-0.81x = 1-0.81
0.45x = 0.19
To get x we divide through by 0.45
X = 0.422
Therefore the Weight of stock J = 0.422
Then the Weight of stock K = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578
Approximately 0.58
Answer:
- Invest $8,470 in X
- Invest $2,530 in Y.
Explanation:
The following expressions can be formed;
Let x and y be the proportions
x + y = 1
0.15x + 0.1y = 13.85%
Expressing y in terms of x;
x + y = 1
y = 100 - x
0.15x + 0.1 ( 1 - x) = 13.85%
0.15x + 0.1 - 0.1x = 13.85%
0.05x = 13.85% - 0.1
x = 13.85%0.05 - 0.1/0.05
x = 77%
Invest 77% in X = 77% * 11,000
= $8,470
Invest in Y
= 11,000 - 8,470
= $2,530
Answer:
None of the options are correct as the price today will be $26.786
Explanation:
The price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate forever can be calculated using the constant growth model of the dividend discount model approach (DDM). The DDM bases the value of a stock on the present value of the future expected dividends from the stock.
The formula for price under constant growth model is,
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
Where,
- D1 is the dividend expected for the next period
- r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
- g is the growth rate in dividends
However, as the constant growth rate in dividends is to be applied from Year 2 onwards, we will use the D2 to calculate the price at Year 1 and we will then discount this further for one year to calculate the price today.
P1 or Year1 price = 2 * (1+0.05) / (0.12 - 0.05)
P1 or Year 1 price = $30
The price of the stock today or P0 will be,
P0 = 30 / (1+0.12)
P0 = $26.786
