Answer:

c.  the firm's expected rate of return is 9.90%

Explanation:

Consider the following formula to calculate the expected return

Expected return = Sum of (Probability * Expected return)

= 50%*0.25 + 30%*0.10 + 20%*-0.28

= 0.125+0.03-0.056

= 0.099 or 9.9%

You have savings of $100. You plan to save another $100 at the beginning of each year for 5 years. The account pays annual inter
Brut [27]

Answer: The ending balance (principal plus interest) will be $638.10

Explanation:

To calculate this we need to use the Quarterly Interest formula

CI quarterly = P (1+ (R/4)/100)^4n

CI is the compound interest payable

I is the initial principal sum of money

R is the interest rate in percentage at which interest accrued over time

n is the time period in years

For the first year the total amount plus interests is

CI = $ 100 (1 + (8/4)/100)^4x1

CI = $100 (1 + 2/100)^4

CI= $100 (1 + 0.02)^4  

CI = $100* 1.0824

CI = $108.24

For the second year = $100+ $108.24= $208.24

CI = $ 208.24 * 1.0824

CI = $225.41

For the third year = $100 + $ 225.41 = $325.41

CI = $325.41 * 1.0824

CI = $352.23

For the fourth year = $100 + $ $352.23 = $452.23

CI  = $452.23 * 1.0824

CI = $ 489.51

For the fifth year =  $100+ $489.51 = $589.51

CI = $589.51 * 1.0824

CI = $ 638.10

natima [27]

Answer: $107,900

Explanation:

Cumulative Preferred Shares refer to shares that a company has to pay dividends eventually. This means that if they are unable to pay for some years, they are to accrue that payment until they are able to.

There are 119000 shares of no-par 6% preferred stock with a stated value of $5.

That means preferred shares are liable to the following amount of dividends,

= 119,000 * 5 * 6%

= $35,700

Preferred Shares have not being paid for the past 2 years and need to be paid in the current year as well. That means 3 payments,

= 35,700 * 3

= $107,100

Preferred Shares are to be paid $107,100 out of the $215,000 with the rest going to common shares.

Amount going to Common Shares is,

= 215,000 - 107,100

= $107,900

Common Stockholders are to receive $107,900
