Answer:

Price = $8.92

Explanation:

Dividend from yr1 to yr3 will be multiplied by 2 since it doubles per year;

D1 = $0.15*2 = $0.30

D2 = $0.30 *2 = $0.60

D3 = $0.60 *2 = $1.20

D4 (onwards) = $1.50

Next, find the present value (PV) of each dividend;

PV(D1) = 0.30/(1.138) = 0.2636

PV (D2) = 0.60/(1.138²)= 0.4633

PV(D3 ) = 1.20/ (1.138³) = 0.8142

PV(D4 onwards) = \frac{[\frac{1.50}{0.138} ]}{1.138^{3} } = 7.3754

To find the price of the stock today, sum up present values above;

= 0.2636 + 0.4633 + 0.8142 + 7.3754

Price = $8.92

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3      

Explanation:

Data given and notation      

\bar X=5000 represent the sample mean      

s=800 represent the standard deviation for the sample      

n=16 sample size      

\mu_o =5600 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)      

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.      

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is lower than 5600, the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5600      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5600      

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:      

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)      

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic      

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:      

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3

Dafna1 [17]

Kane manages a used book store he reads a report advising him to stock more encyclopedias. However the report is mistaken customers in Kane's town hardly ever buy encyclopedias. what problem could this mistake cause?

As mentioned below, if the consumers do not buy the encyclopedias, then they will lose money due to purchasing items that consumers do not want. It's necessary to not only look over reports, but understand the reports to make sure that a business is not overstocking in items that consumers are not actually in demand for. Consumers will purchase items they have a demand for and based on the reports, you can understand the items they are in demand for versus the items they will not be purchasing.

How much would Roderick have after 6 years if he has $500 now and leaves it invested at 5.5% with annual compounding?a. $591.09b
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Roderick will get $689.421 after 6 years

So option (d) is correct

Explanation:

We have given that Roderick invested $500 at a rate for 6 years

So principle amount P = $500

Rate of interest r = 5.5 %

Time n = 6 years

We have to find total amount which Roderick get after 6 years

We know that total amount is given by

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n

So total amount A=500(1+\frac{5.5}{100})^6=$689.421

So Roderick will get $689.421 after 6 years

So option (d) is correct
