Answer:

The cost of equity is 12.49 percent

Explanation:

The price per share of a company whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate can be calculated using the constant growth model of the DMM. The DDM bases the price of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D1 / r - g

Where,

  • D1 is the dividend expected for the next period
  • r is the cost of equity
  • g is the growth rate in dividends

As we already know the P0 which is price today, the D1 and the growth rate in dividends (g), we can plug in the values of these variables in the formula to calculate the cost of equity (r)

100.81 = 8.76 / (r - 0.038)

100.81 * (r - 0.038) = 8.76

100.81r  -  3.83078 = 8.76

100.81r  =  8.76 + 3.83078

r = 12.59078 / 100.81

r = 0.12489 or 12.489% rounded off to 12.49%

Mashcka [7]
The answer is strongest when the economy is at full employment.

the term is used to describe the public-sector spending. It means that purchases would be relatively high when more are employed. They have the capability to acquire the product. It can also be done by borrowing money and lenders can only borrow if their remuneration is sufficient to pay the loan. Another is if they had increased compensation, which makes them buy more than before.

              cash                                     4,000,000  credit

--to record March 1st Payment

B)

A-1

78,400,000 + 26,667 = 78,426,667

A-2

80,800,000 - 13,333 = 80,786,667

C)

the effective interest rate is higher under A-1 as the company is paying the same nominal amount of $4,000,000 every six months but, received less cash for the bonds in A-1 case making the effective rate higher .

Explanation:

A-1 issued at 98 points

cash received:

80,000,000 x 98/100 = 78,400,000

discount on bonds: 80,000,000 - 78,400,000 = 1,600,000

On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discoutn and interest:

amortization

1,600,000 / 40 payment = 40,000 per payment

proportional amortization: 40,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 26,667

<em><u>interest paid</u></em>

principal x rate x time

80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667

payment:

8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000

proportional amortization: 40,000 x 2/6 (month accrued) = 13,333

accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333

A-2  we issue a 101 point

cash received:

80,000,000 x 101/100 = 80,800,000

premuim on bonds: 800,000

On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discount and interest:

amortization

800,000 / 40 payment = 20,000 per payment

proportional amortization: 20,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 13,333

<em><u>interest paid</u></em>

principal x rate x time

80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667

payment:

8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000

proportional amortization: 40,000 x 2/6 (month accrued) = 6,667

accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333

denpristay [2]

Answer:

The value of computer at the end of year is $3200

Explanation:

Total number of computers = 8

The original cost of computers = $600 per computer.

Original retailed = $900

The replacement cost = $400

Since the replacement cost of the market value is $ 400. Therefore, the value of all computers can be calculated by multiplying the $400 with the number of units.

The value of computer at the end of the year = $400 × 8 = $3200
