Consider four different stocks, all of which have a required return of 15 percent and a most recent dividend of $4.20 per share.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Dividend yield for W = 5%

Dividend yield for X = 15%

Dividend yield for Y = 20%

Dividend yield for Z = 4.6%

Explanation:

For a constant growth stock $Price =\frac{D1}{r-g}$

If r is made subject of formula; r= $\frac{D1}{Price}+g$ = div yield + growth rate

For Stock W, given r = 15% and g= 10%; dividend yield = 15%-10%=5%

For Stock X, given r = 15% and g= 0%; dividend yield = 15%-0%=15%

For Stock Y, given r = 15% and g= -5%; dividend yield = 15%-(-5)%=20%

For Stock Z, the price of the stock today is calculated as follows:

Price of the stock today = $\frac{D1}{(1+ke)^1}+\frac{D2}{(1+ke)^2}+\frac{P2}{(1+ke)^2}$ .

where P2= $\frac{D3}{ke-g}$

Price of the stock today = $\frac{4.2(1.2)}{(1+0.15)^1}+\frac{4.2(1.2)^2}{(1+0.15)^2}+\frac{4.2(1.2)^2(1.1)}{(0.15-0.1)(1+0.15)^2}$ =109.57

Therefore dividend yield = $\frac[D1}{Price}$ = $\frac{4.2(1.2)}{109.57}=$ 4.6%

The bank is working to develop an efficient work schedule for full-time and part-time tellers. The schedule must provide for eff

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The solution is given below.

Explanation:

It is a practical, complex scheduling problem that can be easily modelled and solved as IP. Note that part time and full time employees are paid at different rates. So, it is important that the bank operates to provide required service level (indicated by the number of tellers per hour) while minimizing total cost due to staff salary.

We use x as full time and y as part time staff.

It would help if you construct a table as shown below to better analyze the problem before attempting to model it. Red shows work hrs of full time staff and green is for part timers. Just follow their work hour rules.

So, full timers have 3 options:

(i) start at 9 – work till 1pm, take 1 hr break, then work 2 – 5 pm

(ii) start at 10 – work till 2pm, take 1 hr break, then work 3 – 6 pm

(iii) start at 11 – work till 3pm, take 1 hr break, then work 4 – 7 pm

that’s all… bank closes at 7 pm.

However, part timers don’t have 1 hr break. They work straight 4 hrs and leave. See green cells above to understand their alternatives.

Now, decision variables should include this work hour information. Here goes their definition. You must clearly define decision variables in exam, otherwise, the model is meaningless.

X9 = number of full time staff who start at 9 and follow the hour-related rule (no need to specify more details; those are already undestood)

X10 = number of full time staff who start at 10 and follow the hour-related rule

X11 = number of full time staff who start at 11 and follow the hour-related rule

Y9 = number of part time staff who start at 9 and follow the hour-related rule

Y10 = number of part time staff who start at 10 and follow the hour-related rule

…. This way you define up to Y15.

You must also specify that:

Xi, Yi >=0, integers.

Objective Function:

Minimize Z = 105*(x9 + x10 + x11) + 32* (y9 + y10 + … + y 15)

You will need one “covering” constraint for each working hour. Both full and part-timers can “cover” the duty of each hour. Look at the color-coded table (above) column-wise. The 9:00-10:00 hour can be covered only by x9 and y9 staff; next hour by x9, x10, y9, y10 only,… and so on. So, the

constraints are: (attached with image)

Vivian goes to an auction and sees a rare antique lamp that is an identical match to one she already has. At the proper time she

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Most auctions are without reserve and therefore the auctioneer cannot withdraw the lamp.

Explanation:

Every auction seems to be either "of-reserve" versus "without-reserve." So the reaction to whether an auction house manages higher bids depends on that form of bidding being carried out. In an offering with reserves, the auction house may reject a higher offer (retain the privilege to reject ...) in which any better bid should be approved in an offering without deposit.

Put differently, the auction house is not obliged to deliver to the top purchaser in a with reserved sale. Essentially, the next bigger raise reflects the minimum price.

Explanation:

The predictor are behaviors that tends to be repeated by a person, when you analyze them it implies a possible repetition of an action in the future. In this case of a person who did not stay with his past employer more than two years and changes job frequently, will tend to be with the company for a short time and change job again
