In april 2011, consolidated edison (ed) stock cost $50 per share and yielded 5% per year in dividends, while national grid (ngg)
sergey [27]

Total amount Invested = 52,500

Since both stocks cost 50, total number of share he purchased = 52,500/50 = 1,050 shares

Total number of shares = 1,050

Let x be the total number of Ed shares.  Therefore Ngg shares = 1050-x

Ed Stock dividend return = x*0.05*50

Ngg stock dividend return = (1050-x)*0.06*50

Since total was  2,815, we add and equate the two as shown below:

x*0.05*50 + (1050-x)*0.06*50 = 2815

2.5x + 3150 -3x = 2815

0.5x = 335

x 335/0.5

x = 670 shares

Ed stock = 670 shares

Ngg stock =1050-670 = 380 shares

So, you purchased 670 shares of consolidated edison (ed) stock and 380 shares of national grid (ngg) stock

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

B) The value of the ingredients that go into the home-cooked meal and the value of a five-dollar dinner at Burger Joint .

Explanation:

Opportunity costs can be defined as the cost for choosing one alternative investment or action over another.

If you choose to use the five dollar gift card, you are going to eat for free, although you might not enjoy that meal as much as your delicious home made dinner.

But if you choose to eat a delicious meal at home, you are going to lose the five dollars of the give card and will have to spend a certain amount of money in making the dinner. Those same ingredients could be used to prepare dinner tomorrow. That is your opportunity cost of eating at home.

spayn [35]

Answer: The options are given below:

A) Dogs

B) Question marks

C) Stars

D) Cash cows

The correct option is D. Cash cows.

Explanation:

Products that are in slow-growing markets, but for which the company has a relatively large market share are considered Cash Cows, and it is expected of the company to milk the cash cow for as long as it can.

Cash cows, are typically leading products in markets that are mature.

Generally, a product that is designated as a Cash Cow will generate returns that are higher than the market's growth rate and sustain itself from a cash flow perspective.

The product should be taken advantage of for as long as possible. The value of cash cows can be calculated easily because their cash flow patterns are highly predictable.

In summary therefore, low-growth, high-share Cash Cows should be continuously milked for cash in order to reinvest in high-growth, high-share Stars that have a high future potential.
