If D1 = $1.25, g (which is constant) = 5.5%, and P0 = $40, what is the stock's expected total return for the coming year?

trapecia [35]

Answer:

The expected totar return is: 8,625%

Explanation:

Total return, when measuring performance, is the actual rate of return of an investment or a pool of investments over a given evaluation period. Total return includes interest, capital gains, dividends and distributions realized over a given period of time. Total return is the amount of value an investor earns from a security over a specific period, typically one year.

The formula for the total stock return is the appreciation in the price plus any dividends paid, divided by the original price of the stock.

Total stock return= [(P1-P0)+D]/P0

P0: initial stock price

P1: Ending stock price (Period 1)

D0: dividend

In this case, we do not have P1. So we have to use an alternate version of the Gordon Growth Model. The GGM is mainly applied to value mature companies that are expected to grow at the same rate forever.

P= D1/(r-g)

where:

P=Current Stock Price

g=Constant growth rate in perpetuity

expected for the dividends

r=Constant cost of equity capital for that

company (or rate of return)

D1=Value of the next year’s dividends

By moving terms and isolating "r" we achieve the following formula:

r= D1/P+g

r=1,25/40+0,055= 8,625%

Vesnalui [34]

Answer: A) Give and explain counter-arguments against the arguments for each side.Note: the "counter-arguments" you are asked to give should oppose or answer the arguments on the other side as directly and convincingly as possible. They should not be simply unrelated arguments on the opposite side of the issue.

Explanation: When is talking about security is important to have different views, firstable you need to establish which are going to be your claims, premises or arguments, once you got it is important to search for information which can support your ideas, and once you have found it, counter-arguments are necessary to understand which are your weakest point, you need to know your counter-arguments and how people are likely to attack you, once you know the weak part of your speech you can defend it.

Speed World Cycles sells high-performance motorcycles and motocross racers. One of Speed World’s most popular models is the Kazo

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Speed World Cycles

a. Average Cost FIFO LIFO

Cost of goods sold $20,100 $19,900 $20,300

Ending inventory $20,100 $20,300 $19,900

b-1. FIFO will result in Speed World Cycles reporting the highest net income for the current year, because of the reduced cost of goods sold.

b-2. LIFO minimizes the income taxes owed by Speed World Cycles for the year, because it reduces the income before taxes.

b-3. Yes. However, the cost flow assumptions self-correct in later years, by which time it is not allowed to be jumping from one cost flow assumption to another.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Purchase Date Units Purchased Unit Cost Total Cost

July 1 2 $ 4,950 $ 9,900

July 22 3 5,000 15,000

Aug. 3 3 5,100 15,300

Total 8 $ 40,200

July 28 Sold 4

September 30 4 (8 - 4)

Average cost = $40,200/8 = $5,025

a-1. Cost of goods sold = $20,100 (4 * $5,025)

Ending inventory = $20,100 (4 * $5,025)

a-2. FIFO:

Ending inventory = $20,300 (3 * $5,100 + 1 * $5,000)

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available minus cost of ending inventory

= $40,200 - $20,300

= $19,900

a-3 LIFO:

Cost of goods sold = $20,300 (3 * $5,100 + 1 * $5,000)

Ending inventory = Cost of goods available minus cost of goods sold

= = $40,200 - $20,300

= $19,900
