Answer:

The opportunity cost of any action is what you have to give up to do it. If you use your time to go to the movies, you can't use that same time to go to the gym. ... Even though the opportunity cost of 2 apples is always one orange, the more apples are made, the more costly producing apples is in terms of welfare/utility

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Quarterly dividend = $1.00

Required rate of return per annum = 8% = 0.08

Quarterly rate of return = 0.08/4 = 0.02

Current market price = <u>Quarterly dividend</u>

                                      Quarterly required rate of return

                                   = $1.00

                                       0.08

                                   = $12.5      

The amount to pay for 1,000 shares = $1.25 x 1,000 = $12,500

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

Explanation:

The current market price is calculated as quarterly dividend paid divided by quarterly required rate of return. Then, we will multiply the current market price by the number of shares in order to determine the total amount to pay for the shares.

marin [14]

Answer:

$11,560

$5666.661

Explanation:

Given the following :

Bill received from accountant = $17,000

This year's marginal tax rate = 32%

Next year's marginal tax rate = 37%

After tax return on investment = 11%

After tax cost of bill is paid in December :

Billed amount * this year's tax rate

$17,000 * ( 1 - 0.32)

= $17,000 * 0.68

= $11,560

B) After tax cost of bill was paid in January:

Billed amount * next year's tax rate * PV factor

From the present value factor table;

PV factor (1 years, 11%) = 0.9009

Hence,

$17,000 * 0.37 * 0.9009 = $5666.661

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

A. 12.3%

B. 68%

Explanation:

a.Calculation to determine the required return for the project

Required return=(0.62/1.62*5.7%)+(1/1.62*13.2%)+2%

Required return=0.022+0.081+2%

Required return=0.124*100

Required return=12.3%

Therefore the required return for the project will be 12.3%

b. Calculation to determine the maximum cost the company would be willing to pay for this project

Maximum cost =6.3/(12.3%-3%)

Maximum cost =6.3/9.3%

Maximum cost =0.67.7*100

Maximum cost =67.7%

Maximum cost=68% (Approximately)

Therefore the maximum cost the company would be willing to pay for this project will be 68%

choli [55]

Answer: $80
