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%

Answer:

The total medical expenses deductible before the​ 10% limitation is 2090

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

The Total expenses included is stated as follows:

Th Hotel room  is = $150 * two rooms * three nights

Mileage of = $900,

Miles = 1000

Doctor's bill ins an Francisco = 1,600

Now,

To next step is to find the total medical expenses deductible before the​ 10% limitation is given as follows:

Doctor's bill = 1,600

The total expenses  i hotel room is calculated as :150 * 1 *3 = 450

So,

The total = 1600 + 450 = 2050

It is also important to know that only 10% of the expense stay for the accompanied person is permitted

Therefore,

450*10% =45

Total 2050+45 = 2090

Show that if the contribution to profit for trains is between $1.50 and $3, the current basis remains optimal. If the contributi
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

210

Explanation:

Let us consider that x is the number of soldiers produced each week and y is number of trains produced each week.

Also, weekly revenues and costs can be expressed in terms of the decision variables x and y.

Then,

Hence the profit which we want to maximize is given by,

Now the constraints are given as,

Finishing Constraint:

Each week, no more than 100 hours of finishing time may be used.

Carpentry Constraint:

Each week, no more than 80 hours of carpentry time may be used.

Demand Constraint:

Because of limited demand, at most 40 soldiers should be produced each week.

Combining the sign restrictions and with the objective function  and constraints,and yield the following optimization model:

Such that,

First convert the given inequalities into equalities:

From equation (1):

If x=0 in equation (1) then (0,100)

If y=0 in equation (1) then (50,0)

From equation (2):

If x=0 in equation (2) then (0,80)

If y=0 in equation (2) then (80,0)

From equation (3):

Equation (3) is the line passing through the point x=40.

Therefore, the given LPP has a feasible solution first image

The optimum solution for the given LPP is obtained as follows in the second image

The optimal solution to this problem is,

And the optimum values are  .

Let c be the contribution to profit by each train. We need to find the values of c for which the current, basis remain optimal. Currently c is 2, and each iso-profit line has the form

3x +  2y = constant

y = 3x/2 +constant/ 2

And so, each iso-profit line has a slope of  .

From the graph we can see that if a change in c causes the isoprofit lines to be flatter than the carpentry constraint, then the optimal solution will change from the current optimal solution to a new optimal solution, If the profit for each train is c, the slope of each isoprofit line will be.

-3/c

Because the slope of the carpentry constraint is –1, the isoprofit lines will be flatter than the carpentry constraint.

If,

-3/c<-1

c >3

and the current basis will no longer be optimal. The new optimal solution will be point A of the graph.

If the is oprofit lines are steeper than the finishing constraint, then the optimal solution will change from point B to point C. The slope of the finishing constraint is –2.

If,

-3/c < -2 or

C < 1.5

Then the current basis is no longer optimal and point C,(40,20), will be optimal. Hence when the contribution to the profit for trains is between $1.50 and $3, the current basis remains optimal.

Again, consider the contribution to the profit for trains is $2.50, then the decision variables remain the same since the contribution to the profit for trains is between $1.50 and $3. And the optimal solution is given by,

z = 3× (20) + 2.5 × (60)

= 60 + 150

= 210

In spring 2014, Parmac Engineering Company signed a $160 million contract with the city of Parkersburg, to construct a new city
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

c. $64 million

Explanation:

For computing the revenue recognized, first we have to determine the percentage which is shown below:

= Cost incurred in 2014 ÷ expenses incurred

= $48 million ÷ $120 million

= 40%

And, the contract price is $160 million

So, the revenue recognized would be

= Contract price × percentage

= $160 million × 40%

= $64 million

MissTica

Answer:

1

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

In a perfect monopoly, there is only one firm operating in the industry

In a  monopolistic competition, differentiated products are sold

In an oligopoly, there are few large firms
