Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": Shareholders who are risk averse may prefer some dividends over the promise of future capital gains.
Explanation:
A dividend is a cash distribution by a company to its shareholders out of the profits of a period. Capital Gain refers to the increase in the value of a capital asset or an investment upon sale. From the two of them, dividends are safer investments since they do not rely exclusively on the sales of an asset.
Thus, a conservative investor is likely to choose dividends over the promise of capital gains.
I think the answer is 4 all of the above.
Answer:
Option 2 is slightly better.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
They’ve offered you two different salary arrangements. You can have $85,000 per year for the next two years, or you can have $74,000 per year for the next two years, along with a $20,000 signing bonus today.
To determine which of the options is better, we need to calculate the present value. To do this we will assume an interest rate of 10% per year compounded annually.
PV= FV*(1+i)^n
<u>Option 1:</u>
PV= 85000/1.10 + 85,000/1.10^2= $147,520.66
<u>Option 2</u>:
PV= 20,000 + 74,000/1.10 + 74,000/1.10^2= 148,429.7
Option 2 is slightly better.
