any distributes $3 per share 5 years from today, the growth rate of the dividends will be 2% per year going forward.

Answer:

Policy 1

Price at end of year 4 = D5/(rs-g)

          = 3 /(.12-.02)

          = 3/.10

         = $ 30 per share

Price Today =PVF12%,4* Price at end of year 4

      = .63552 * 30

      = $ 19.07 PER SHARE

Policy 2 :

Price at end of year 4 = D5/(rs-g)

          = 2 /(.12-.06)

          = 3/.06

         = $ 50 per share

Price Today =PVF12%,4* Price at end of year 4

      = .63552 * 50

      = $ 31.78 PER SHARE

Policy 2 should be adopted since market price per share is higher under policy 2.

Answer:

% of completion= 33.7% for 2021

% of completion = 55.4% for 2022

% of completion = 100% for 2023

Gross profit/loss  =   $696,770 for 2021

Gross profit/loss =  -$141,660  for 2022

Gross profit/loss = -$400,000  for 2023

Explanation: 

See the table below

Year          Actual cost       Total incurred cost       Total estimated cost

2021        $2,070,000        $2,070,000                  $6,140,000

2022       $2,620,000        $4,690,000                  $8,470,000

2023       $3,920,000        $8,610,000                    $8,610,000

Percentage of completion is calculated using the formula;

% of completion =  Total incurred cost /Total estimated cost *100

For 2021:

% of completion = $2,070,000 /$6,140,000 *100

                           =0.337 *100

                            =33.7%

For 2022:

% of completion = $4,690,000 /$8,470,000 *100

                           =0.554 *100

                           = 55.4%

For 2023:

% of completion = $8,610,000 / $8,610,000 *100

                            =1 * 100

                             = 100%

During a recession, median income falls by 15%. if the demand for grapes falls by 12%, grapes are a(n) _____ good with an income
IgorLugansk [536]
<span>Grapes are a(n) "normal good" with an income elasticity of demand of "0.8". A normal good is a good for which an increase in income results in increased demand, while decreased income results in decreased demand. Thus, we know that the first blank is "normal good" by the definition of a normal good becuase median income fell and demand for grapes fell. The X elasticity of demand is given by (%change in Demand)/(%change in X), where x is any economic variable (income in this case). Thus, to find the elasticity, we divide 12% by 15%. 12%/15%=.08.</span>
