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%

Answer:

Assuming that Alpha and Beta are the only two nations in the world, at the equilibrium world price:

Beta will export steel and Alpha will import steel.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Domestic and World Market for Steel

Alpha                   Beta           World Market

Qs    P      Qd       Qs    P      Qd       Qs    P       Qd  

60    5        10       80    5       20      140    5       30

40    4       20       70    4       30       110     4       50

30    3       30       60    3       40       90     3       70

25   2.50  35       55    2.50  45       80    2.50  80

20   2       40       50    2       50        70    2       90

10   1       50        40    1        60       50     1       110

b) In the world market, equilibrium will occur at a price of $2.50, when the quantity supplied and demanded will be 80.  At this equilibrium price of $2.50, Alpha will supply 25 units, and Beta will supply 55 units.  Alpha will demand 35 units, and Beta will demand 45 units.  This implies that Beta will supply more than its demand for steel, while Alpha will supply less.  Therefore, Beta will export steel and Alpha will import steel.

John buys a $1,000 bond that pays 6% annual interest at 75. what is john's annual yield?
lina2011 [118]

To calculate the current yield of bonds.

We have the given par value of $1000, a market price of $750 and an interest rate of 6%.

Formula of current yield: 

Yield =  (interest rate * par value)/(market price) * 100%

         =  ((0.06 *  $1000)/$750) * 100%

         = ( $60/$750) * 100%

         =0.08 * 100%

         = 8%

If specialization and outsourcing can harm domestic workers, why do countries still engage in trade? choose one:
andrey2020 [161]

If specialization and outsourcing can harm domestic workers, the countries still engage in trade because the gains from trade far outweigh the costs, and the economy benefits overall.

Outsourcing is the business practice in which a party is hired  outside any company to perform services and to  create goods that were traditionally performed  and produced in-house by the company's own employees and staff.

Outsourcing is a practice which is usually undertaken by companies as a measure of cost-cutting . As such, it can affect a wide range of jobs, ranging from customer support to manufacturing to the back office.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Chaikin Money Flow is a model (indicator) that was developed by Marc Chaikin in the 1980s and it is typically used by financial institutions or experts to monitor the volume-weighted average of accumulation and distribution of a stock for a specific period of time. Thus, the default or standard period for the Chaikin Money Flow is 21 days

Hence, Chaikin Money Flow is calculated by summing the average of the daily money flow (ADs) over the past 21 days and dividing that sum by the total volume over the past 21 days.
