Answer:
8.62%
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is WACC.
First, find the market values of equity and debt
Market value of equity = 10,000*35 = 350,000
Market values of Debt = 250,000
WACC formula is ;
WACC= wE*rE + wD*rD(1-tax)
whereby,
wE = weight of equity = 350,000/(350,000+250,000) = 0.5833
rE = Cost of equity = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal
wD = weight of debt = 250,000/(350,000+250,000) = 0.4167
rD = pretax cost of debt = 8% or 0.08 as a decimal
tax = 34%
So, WACC = (0.5833*0.11) + [ 0.4167 *0.08(1-0.34) ]
WACC = 0.0642 + 0.02200
= 0.0862
Therefore, weighted average cost of capital (WACC)= 8.62%
Economics can be described as the study of how people use ________ resources to satisfy ________ wants.A) unlimited; unlimitedB) unlimited; limitedC) limited; unlimitedD) limited; limited
Answer:
C) limited; unlimited
Explanation:
Economics can be described as the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants.
Economics is the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants, which requires making choices due to the scarcity of resources.
Explanation:Economics can be described as the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants. The correct answer to the student's question is C) limited; unlimited
Scarcity is a core concept in economics, indicating that there is a finite amount of resources available to meet the endless human wants and needs. Resources such as labor, tools, land, and raw materials are essential to produce the desired goods and services but are not available in unlimited quantities. Time is another scarce resource; with only 24 expendable hours in a day, people must make choices about how to allocate their time among work, leisure, and rest.
Because of these limitations, economics studies how individuals and societies prioritize and allocate their resources, making trade-offs to best satisfy the varying wants and needs. Every choice made implies another option foregone, which is known as an opportunity cost.
Bramble Company took a physical inventory on December 31 and determined that goods costing $216,300 were on hand. Not included in the physical count were $22,720 of goods purchased from Pelzer Corporation, f.o.b. shipping point, and $19,770 of goods sold to Alvarez Company for $29,450, f.o.b. destination. Both the Pelzer purchase and the Alvarez sale were in transit at year-end. What amount should Bramble report as its December 31 inventory?
Answer:
$258,790
Explanation:
Bramble report as its December 31 inventory:
= Inventory in hand as per physical count + Goods purchased from P corporation under FOB shipping basis + Cost of goods sold to A company under FOB destination basis
= $216,300 + $22,720 + $19,770
= $258,790
Therefore, the amount to be reported by Bramble company is $258,790.
Bartran Company assembles ink cartridges. Each finished cartridge has three child items: a plastic case, a label and several ounces of ink. Lead time on assembling a finished cartridge is 2 days, while the lead time for procuring new plastic cases is 1 day, although the lead time is 5 days for procuring new labels and 2 days for procuring more ink. Assuming that all the assumptions of an MRP bill of materials is true, how long would it take Bartran to create at least one finished ink cartridge if it started with nothing in stock?
It would take Bartran Company a minimum of 5 days to create at least one finished ink cartridge if they started with nothing in stock.
Explanation:Using the information given, we can determine the lead times for each component and calculate the total lead time to create a finished ink cartridge. The longest lead time comes from procuring new labels, which is 5 days. Therefore, it would take Bartran Company a minimum of 5 days to create at least one finished ink cartridge if they started with nothing in stock.
Total Lead Time Calculation: Since the longest lead time is 5 days (procuring new labels), it sets the minimum total lead time for creating a finished ink cartridge. This is because all other steps can occur in parallel or have lead times shorter than or equal to 5 days.
Therefore, if Bartran Company started with nothing in stock and initiated the process of creating an ink cartridge, it would take a minimum of 5 days to complete at least one finished ink cartridge.

B. $816,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net sales is shown below:
= Total sales - sales returned amount
where,
Total sales is $850,000
And, the sales returned amount would be
= Total sales amount × sales returned percentage
= $850,000 × 4%
= $34,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would be equal to
= $850,000 - $34,000
= $816,000
At GetHelp Inc., after customer service representatives complete training, their phone calls are monitored to determine if they are applying the lessons about gathering pertinent information from callers. This evaluation best exemplifies a _____ measure.
Answer:
This evaluation best exemplifies a "behavior-level" measure.
Explanation:
Donald Kirkpatrick proposed a Four-level training evaluation model for evaluating the impact of training on employees.
The four levels are; Reaction, Learning, Behavior and Results.
The behavior level of Kirkpatrick's model is the third stage and it comes after employees have undergone learning/training. At this stage, the behavior is measured through monitoring and observation to determine if they are implementing what they have learnt.
This gives some insight into how effective the training was.
Therefore GetHelp Inc. by monitoring the phone calls of their customer service representatives are carrying out a "behavior-level" measure.

Why, with the monetary policy tools it had used prior to the financial crisis, could the Fed not control the federal funds rate?
(A) The Fed would have needed to conduct a massive open market purchase of government securities.
(B) Investor and consumer behavior was not conforming to normal patterns.
(C) Using the tools the Fed had available would have disrupted the financial system.
(D) Reserves would have needed to be increased by too large an amount.
Answer:
(C) Using the tools the Fed had available would have disrupted the financial system.
Explanation:
Every time the solution of any problem is not available with the resources we have, rather the available resources might add up to the cost of damage.
In the given case also, this general phenomenon is applicable.
As the Fed had monetary policy tools, which it even used earlier are not good for the problem of financial crisis. That the policies could even turn the situation worse as the country is already facing the crisis, and the policies would not contribute to the well being.
otal Labor Variance Tico Inc. produces plastic bottles. Each bottle has a standard labor requirement of 0.01 hours. During the month of April, 510,000 bottles were produced using 13,000 labor hours @ $9.00. The standard wage rate is $7.50 per hour. Required: Calculate the total variance for production labor for the month of April. Enter amounts as positive numbers. If required, round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answer:
$78,750 unfavorable
Explanation:
Total labor variance can be divided into direct labor efficiency variance and the direct labor rate variance
Direct labor efficiency variance (DLEV):
DLEV = (Expected labor hours - actual labor hours)*standard rate
[tex]DLEV=(0.01*510,000 - 13,000)*7,50\\DLEV = -59,250[/tex]
Direct labor rate variance (DLRV):
DLRV = Actual labor hours * (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)
[tex]DLRV = 13,000*(7.50 - 9.00)\\DLRV = -19,500[/tex]
Since both values are negative, they are both unfavorable and the total labor variance (TLV) is given by:
[tex]DLRV = 13,000*(7.50 - 9.00)\\DLRV = 59,250 + 19,500\\TLV = \$ 78,750 \ unfavorable[/tex]
2. You have just completed an analysis of Rodriguez Manufacturing. You used the Capital Asset Pricing Model to determine that the required rate of return is 13%. The last dividend paid was $1.80, and the current price is $25. Based on new manufacturing processes that the company recently adopted and the company’s history of consistently paying dividends, you believe the company’s dividends will grow at a constant growth rate of 6%.
Answer:
You didn´t post the question complete. So I found the expected rate of return. Hope be useful.
Explanation:
Required rate of return on stock = 13%
Expected rate of return is calcualted below Using DDM model:
Expected rate of return = [$1.80 × (1 + 6%) / ($25)] + 6%
= ($1.908 / $25) + 6%
= 7.632% + 6%
= 13.632%
Expected rate of return is 13.632%.
Maxine, age 35, earns $200,000 annually from ABC Incorporated. ABC sponsors a SIMPLE, and matches all employee deferrals 100% up to a 3% contribution. What is the maximum employee deferral contribution to Maxine’s SIMPLE account for this year?
Answer:
$12,500.
Explanation:
Please see attachment.
The maximum employee deferral contribution to Maxine’s SIMPLE account for this year is $6,000.
Explanation:The maximum employee deferral contribution to Maxine’s SIMPLE account for this year can be calculated using the employer's matching policy. ABC Incorporated matches all employee deferrals 100% up to a 3% contribution. Maxine's annual income is $200,000, so her maximum employee deferral contribution for this year would be 3% of $200,000, which is $6,000.
Excelor stock is expected to pay $3.00 per share as its next annual dividend. The firm has a policy of increasing the dividend by 11.0 percent annually. The stock has a market price of $13.65 and a beta of 2.8. The market risk premium is 8.56 percent and the risk-free rate is 4.90 percent. What is the cost of equity?
Answer:
30.92%
Explanation:
You find the answer by calculating the cost of equity using two methods; Dividend discount model and CAPM
Dividend discount model;
cost of equity; r = (D1/P0) +g
whereby, D1 = next year's dividend = 3.00
P0= current price = 13.65
g = dividend growth rate = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal
r = (3/13.65) + 0.11
r = 0.2198 + 0.11
r= 0.3298 or 32.98%
Using CAPM;
r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)
r = 0.049 + (2.8 * 0.0856)
r = 0.049 + 0.2397
r = 0.2887 or 28.87%
Next, find the average of the two cost of equities;
=(32.98% + 28.87% )/2
= 30.92%
Both assets A and B plot on the SML. Asset A has an expected return of 15% and a beta of 1.7, and asset B has an expected return of 12% and a beta of 1.1. What is the risk-free rate of return?
a. 5.0%
b. 6.5%
c. 11.5%
d. It cannot be determined from this information
Final answer:
By setting up two equations based on the CAPM formula and the provided expected returns and betas for assets A and B, we solve for the risk-free rate of return, which is found to be 5.0%. The correct answer is option (A)
Explanation:
The Security Market Line (SML) depicts the relationship between an asset's expected return and its beta with respect to the market. It is based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), which is defined as:
Expected Return = Risk-Free Rate + Beta x (Market Return - Risk-Free Rate)
Based on the information given for assets A and B, we can set up two equations using their expected returns and betas:
1. 0.15 = Risk-Free Rate + 1.7 x (Market Return - Risk-Free Rate) for Asset A
2. 0.12 = Risk-Free Rate + 1.1 x (Market Return - Risk-Free Rate) for Asset B
To find the Risk-Free Rate, we have a system of two equations with two unknowns (Risk-Free Rate and Market Return). Solving this system algebraically:
Isolate the Risk-Free Rate terms on one side and simplify the equations.Find the value of Market Return by solving any of the equations.Substitute the value of Market Return back into either equation to find the Risk-Free Rate.After solving, we find that the risk-free rate of return is 5.0% (Option a).
Which one of the following stocks is correctly priced if the risk-free rate of return is 2.4 percent and the market risk premium is 7.80 percent? Stock Beta Expected Return A 0.72 8.43% B 1.48 14.00% C 1.40 13.32% D 1.06 10.58%
Answer:
Stock C
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called market risk premium
For Stock A
= 2.4% + 0.72 × 7.80%
= 2.4% + 5.616%
= 8.016%
For Stock B
= 2.4% + 1,48 × 7.80%
= 2.4% + 11.544%
= 13.944%
For Stock C
= 2.4% + 1.40 × 7.80%
= 2.4% + 10.92%
= 13.32%
For Stock D
= 2.4% + 1.06 × 7.80%
= 2.4% + 8.268%
= 10.668%
Since we see that the expected rate of return for stock C is equal to the expected rate of return so the stock C is correctly priced

On January 1, 2016, Woodstock, Inc. purchased a machine costing $40,000. Woodstock also paid $1,000 for transportation and installation. The expected useful life of the machine is 6 years and the residual value is $5,000.How much is the annual depreciation expense assuming use of the straight-line depreciation method?A. $6,100.B. $6,000.C. $5,950.D. $5,750.
Answer:
B. $6,000
Explanation:
The computation of the annual depreciation expense under the straight-line method is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($41,000 - $5,000) ÷ (6 years)
= ($36,000) ÷ (6 years)
= $6,000
The original cost is computed below:
= Purchase value + transportation and installation cost
= $40,000 + $1,000
= $41,000

Six months ago, you purchased 2,700 shares of ABC stock for $44.81 a share. You have received dividend payments equal to $.50 a share. Today, you sold all of your shares for $47.49 a share. What is your total dollar return on this investment?
The total dollar return on the investment is calculated by adding the total capital gain ($7,236) and the total dividends ($1,350) which results in a total return of $8,586.
The question involves calculating the total dollar return on an investment in the stock market. To determine the total dollar return, we must consider both the capital gain (or loss) and the dividend payments received during the investment period.
First, let's calculate the capital gain:
Sale price per share: $47.49
Purchase price per share: $44.81
Number of shares: 2,700
Capital gain per share: $47.49 - $44.81 = $2.68
Total capital gain: $2.68 \\u00d7 2,700 shares = $7,236
Next, let's calculate the dividend earnings:
Dividend per share: $0.50
Total dividends: $0.50 \\u00d7 2,700 shares = $1,350
Now, we can calculate the total dollar return:
Total capital gain: $7,236
Total dividends: $1,350
Total dollar return: $7,236 + $1,350 = $8,586

When they produce 20,000 units per month, Sanders Incorporated has variable costs of $392,000 and fixed costs of $242,000. If Sanders increases their production to 25,000 units, by how much will they have to increase their budget?
A : $98,000
B : $158,500
C : $490,000
D : $792,500
Answer:
increased in budget = $98000
correct option is A $98000
Explanation:
given data
produce = 20,000 units per month
variable costs = $392,000
fixed costs = $242,000
increases production = 25,000 units
to find out
how much will they have to increase their budget
solution
we get here total cost or present budget that is
total cost = variable cost + fixed cost
total cost = $392000 + $242000
total cost = $634000
and
variable cost per unit will be here
variable cost per unit = [tex]\frac{variable\ costs}{produce}[/tex]
variable cost per unit = [tex]\frac{392000}{20000}[/tex]
variable cost per unit = 19.6
and
variable cost for increased production = increases production × variable cost per unit
variable cost for increased production = 25000 × 19.6
variable cost for increased production = 490000
and
total cost of increased production = fixed cost + variable cost for increased production
total cost of increased production = $242000 + $490000
total cost of increased production = $732000
and
increased in budget = $732000 - $634000
increased in budget = $98000
correct option is A $98000

Two economists estimate the government expenditure multiplier and come up with different results. One estimates the multiplier at 0.75, while the other comes up with an estimate of 1.25. Explain why these estimates are different in terms of the assumptions that each economist is making.
A. Compared to the first economist, the second economist is assuming a longer time frame for the effects of the increased expenditure to be observed.
B. Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a smaller induced increase in consumption, a larger crowding out effect, or both.
C.Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a larger induced increase in consumption, a smaller crowding out
D. Unlike the first economist, the second economist miust be assuming that the government expenditure is devoted to useful projects.
If the current value of GDP is $14.42 trillion and the government is planning to increase spending by $900 billion (all in one year), the percentage increase in GDP using the multiplier estimate of the first economist is 4.68 percent. (Round your response to two decimal places) Using the multiplier estimate of the second economist and the same current value of GDP, the percentage increase in GDP is percent. (Round your response effect, or both. to two decimal places.)
Answer: (B)
Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a smaller induced increase in consumption, a larger crowding out effect, or both.
Explanation:
First of all, I'll like to explain some terms:
- Government Expenditure Multiplier is an index or figure showing the percentage by which Gross domestic product (GDP) will increase, when Government Expenditure increases; all other kinds of expenditure held constant
- the GDP equation is
GDP= C + I + G + (X-M)
Where C = consumption expenditure (by individuals)
I = investment expenditure (by firms)
G = government expenditure
(X-M) = international trade (export-import) expenditure
- If we hold other independent variables constant and measure the government expenditure multiplier, we will derive the index that shows the amount by which an increase in G will increase GDP.
Now to the question;
Crowding out effect means an act by the government to purchase so much more domestic goods and services than they previously purchased.
This is done deliberately by the government for various reasons: to boost the economy, to provide social welfare goods, and to kick-start national projects.
It is called "crowding out" because these huge government purchases limit private sector purchases.
If the 2nd economist assumes a larger crowding out effect, that means greater government expenditure, then this rhymes with the higher GM (government expenditure multiplier) that his estimate produces. GM of 1.25 means that a percent increase in G will increase GDP by 25%.
On the other hand, Economist 1's estimate of 0.75 implies a 25% decrease in GDP (coming from a decrease in G), which explains his part of option B. He (economist 1) is assuming a lesser crowding out effect.
If we add the assumption of Economist 2 that there'll be smaller induced increase in consumption, it follows that C will have a less positive impact on GDP.
If we combine both changes in C and G, we also have G producing more increase in GDP.
You are welcome.
Answer:
the correct answer is B
"Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a smaller induced increase in consumption, a larger crowding out effect, or both".
Explanation:
Government use multiplier used to show increment in level of GDP when government use increment other than consistent of other consumption.
Gross domestic product = c+I+g + ( x-m)
In the event that we steady all use or free factors expected g which is meant government consumption at that point to compute government multiplier the expansion in g consequently increment in GDP.
Swarming impact:- under this administration buy all the more increasingly residential merchandise and ventures which limits private division buy and this circumstance is gotten swarming out.
So if financial specialist second have bigger swarming exertion implies government use increment and this lead higher government multiplier . Gm of 1.25 implies that percent expansion in g lead GDP increment by 25% .
Financial specialist second gauge 0.75 methods 25% abatement in GDP .

On January 1, Year 1, McClurg Corporation issues 5%, 11-year bonds with a face amount of $70,000 for $76,180. The market interest rate is 4%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Complete the necessary journal entry for the issuance of the bonds by selecting the account names from the drop-down menus and entering the associated dollar amounts. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
The journal entry for the issuance of the bond is shown below:
Explanation:
The entry to be posted on Jan 1
Cash A/c..............................................Dr $76,180
Premium on bonds payable A/c........Cr $6,180
Bonds Payable A/c..................................Cr $70,000
As bonds issued, so cash is increasing and any increase in cash is debited. Therefore, the cash account is debited. But the bonds issued at a premium so the premium on the bonds payable will be credited. And bonds payable account is credited.
The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds would be: Debit Cash $76,180, Credit Bonds Payable $70,000, Credit Premium on Bonds Payable $6,180.
Explanation:To record the issuance of the bonds, the journal entry would be as follows:
Debit: Cash $76,180Credit: Bonds Payable $70,000Credit: Premium on Bonds Payable $6,180The debit to Cash represents the amount received from the issuance of the bonds. The credit to Bonds Payable represents the face value of the bonds.

X Company purchased a patent on January 3, 2017 from Y Company for $145,000. An attorney drew up the contract between X & Y at a total cost of $15,000, which was split equally by the parties. The patent had a carrying value of $90,000 on Y’s books. X expects to be able to benefit from the patent for 10 years, after which it is expected to be of little to no value. What will be the carrying value of the patent on X Company’s December 31, 2018 balance sheet?
Answer:
$122,000
Explanation:
Cost of Patent:
= Cost of patent + (total cost ÷ 2)
= 145,000 + (15,000 ÷ 2)
= $152,500
Accumulated depreciation for 2 years:
= (Cost of Patent ÷ Benefited years) × No. of years
= (152,500 ÷ 10) × 2
= $30,500
Carrying value on December 31,2018:
= Cost of Patent - Accumulated depreciation for 2 years
= $152,500 - $30,500
= $122,000
The cash budget: Sit Down Corporation has a cash balance of $32,500 on April 1. The company must maintain a minimum cash balance of $30,000. During April, expected cash receipts are $48,500. Cash disbursements during the month are expected to total $56,100. Ignoring interest payments, how much will the company need to borrow during April?
Answer:
$5,100
Explanation:
Initial cash balance (IB) = $32,500
Expected cash receipts (EC) = $48,500.
Cash disbursements (CD) = $56,100
Amount borrowed (B) = ?
Assuming that the final balance must equal at least $30,000, the cash flow for april is given by:
[tex]\$30,000 = IB +EC-CD+B \\B= \$30,000 -\$32,500-$48,500+\$56,100\\B=\$5,100[/tex]
Sit Down Corporation will need to borrow $5,100 during April to maintain a minimum cash balance of $30,000.
Rise Against Corporation is comparing two different capital structures: an all equity plan (Plan A) and a levered plan (Plan B). Under Plan A, the company would have 210,000 shares of stock outstanding. Under Plan B, there would be 150,000 shares of stock outstanding and $2.28 million in debt outstanding. The interest rate on the debt is 8%, and there are no taxes.a. If EBIT is S500,OOO, which plan will result in the higher EPS? b. If EBIT is $750,000, which plan will result in the higher EPS? c. What is the break-even EBIT?
Answer:
a. Plan A
b. Plan B
c. $638,400
Explanation:
The formula to compute the earning per share is shown below:
Earning per share = (Net income - interest) ÷ (Number of shares)
a. For Plan A
EPS = ($500,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $2.38
For Plan B
EPS = ($500,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $2.12
The interest is computed below:
= $2.28 million × 8%
= $182,400)
Plan A has higher EPS
b. For Plan A
EPS = ($750,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $3.57
For Plan B
EPS = ($750,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $3.78
The interest is computed below:
= $2.28 million × 8%
= $182,400)
Plan B has higher EPS
c. Break-even EBIT
(EBIT) ÷ (Number of shares) = (EBIT - Interest) ÷ Number of shares
(EBIT) ÷ (210,000) = (EBIT - $182,400) ÷$150,000
After solving this,
The EBIT would be $638,400
A machine that cost $192,000 has an estimated residual value of $24,000 and an estimated useful life of 24,000 machine hours. The company uses units-of-production depreciation and ran the machine 6,000 hours in year 1, 7,000 hours in year 2, and 8,000 hours in year 3.
The book value of the machine at the end of year 3, using the units-of-production depreciation method, is $144,000. This is calculated based on the machine's actual usage of 8,000 hours in year 3.
To calculate the book value at the end of year 3 using the units-of-production depreciation method, we'll follow these steps:
1. Determine the depreciation per machine hour:
[tex]\[\text{Depreciation per Hour} = \frac{\text{Cost} - \text{Residual Value}}{\text{Total Estimated Machine Hours}}\][/tex]
2. Calculate the accumulated depreciation for each year:
[tex]\[\text{Accumulated Depreciation} = \text{Depreciation per Hour} \times \text{Actual Machine Hours}\][/tex]
3. Determine the book value at the end of each year:
[tex]\[\text{Book Value} = \text{Cost} - \text{Accumulated Depreciation}\][/tex]
Let's calculate it:
Given:
- Cost = $192,000
- Residual Value = $24,000
- Estimated Useful Life = 24,000 machine hours
- Actual Machine Hours in Year 1 = 6,000 hours
- Actual Machine Hours in Year 2 = 7,000 hours
- Actual Machine Hours in Year 3 = 8,000 hours
1.
[tex]\[\text{Depreciation per Hour} = \frac{192,000 - 24,000}{24,000 \text{ hours}} = 6[/tex]
2.
[tex]\[\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 1} = $6 \times 6,000 \text{ hours} = $36,000\\\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 2} = $6 \times 7,000 \text{ hours} = $42,000\\\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 3} = $6 \times 8,000 \text{ hours} = $48,000[/tex]
3.
[tex]\text{Book Value Year 1} = $192,000 - $36,000 = $156,000\\\text{Book Value Year 2} = $192,000 - $42,000 = $150,000\\\text{Book Value Year 3} = $192,000 - $48,000 = $144,000[/tex]
Therefore, the book value at the end of year 3 is $144,000.
The complete question is:
A machine that cost $192,000 has an estimated residual value of $24,000 and an estimated useful life of 24,000 machine hours. The company uses units-of-production depreciation and ran the machine 6,000 hours in year 1, 7,000 hours in year 2, and 8,000 hours in year 3.
Calculate its book value at the end of year 3.
A $1,000,000 lottery prize pays $50,000 per year for the next 20 years. If the current rate of return is 4.25%, what is the present value of this prize? (Assume the lottery pays out as an ordinary annuity. Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
The present value of a $1,000,000 lottery prize that pays out $50,000 annually for 20 years, taking into account a 4.25% interest rate, is approximately $577,462.86.
Explanation:The present value of the lottery prize can be calculated using the formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity. An annuity is a series of equal payments made at regular intervals. The formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity takes into account the periodic payment amount, the interest rate, and the number of payment periods.
In this case, the lottery payout is an annuity with a yearly payment of $50,000, the interest rate is 4.25% (expressed as 0.0425 as a decimal), and there are 20 payment periods.
So, the formula to calculate the present value of the annuity is as follows: PV = Pmt * [(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]
Where:
PV is the present value of the annuity,Pmt is the recuring payment amount,r is the interest rate per period, andn is the number of periods.Substituting the given values into the formula:
PV = $50,000 * [(1 - (1 + 0.0425)^-20) / 0.0425]
When you calculate the expression inside the brackets first and then multiply by $50,000, you get a present value of approximately $577,462.86.
This means that the $1,000,000 lottery prize, paid out as $50,000 per year for 20 years and discounted at an interest rate of 4.25%, is roughly worth $577,462.86 in today's dollars.

Saks is expected to pay a dividend in year 1 of $1.80, a dividend in year 2 of $2.12, and a dividend in year 3 of $2.69. After year 3, dividends are expected to grow at the rate of 8% per year. An appropriate required return for the stock is 11%."
What should the stock price be worth after three years?
Answer:
$96.84
Explanation:
The computation of the stock price after three years are shown below:
= (Third-year dividend × growth rate) ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
= ($2.69 × 1.08) ÷ (11% - 8%)
= ($2.9052) ÷ (3%)
= $96.84
The growth rate equal to
= 1 + growth rate
= 1 + 8%
= 1.08
We simply apply the growth model so that the after three years stock price can be correctly computed
Final answer:
The stock price after three years is calculated using the Dividend Discount Model for a perpetuity, considering the given dividends and expected growth rate, resulting in a value of $96.12.
Explanation:
The question asks to calculate the worth of a stock after three years, given the dividends for the first three years and an expected perpetual growth rate thereafter. The dividends for year 1 are $1.80, year 2 are $2.12, and year 3 are $2.69. After year 3, dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 8% per year indefinitely. The required return for the stock is 11%. To find the stock price after three years, we will use the Dividend Discount Model (DDM) for a perpetuity which considers the dividend growth. The formula for the value of the stock at the end of year 3, which is before applying the growth rate in year 4, is: P3 = D3 * (1 + g) / (r - g), where P3 is the stock price at the end of year 3, D3 is the dividend in year 3, g is the growth rate (8%), and r is the required return (11%). Substituting the given values: P3 = $2.69 * (1 + 0.08) / (0.11 - 0.08) = $2.69 * 1.08 / 0.03 = $96.12. Therefore, the stock should be worth $96.12 after three years.
