<u>A. According to the constant dividend growth model, the value of the firm depends on the current dividend level, divided by the equity cost of capital plus the grow rate.</u>
This is the false statement.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The fair value of stock can be calculated using the dividend growth model. While calculating the value of the stock, the growth of the dividends should be considered either in a stable rate or at a different rate during the period at hand.
The dividend growth model is also known as a <u>valuation model</u> as it is used to achieve the value of the stock.
Equity cost is the cost that the firm owes to the equity investors to compensate the risk of their investment.
Answer: 0.6%
Explanation:
The expected return is a weighted average of the returns of the assets invested in.
70% is invested in cash which earns 0%
30% is in a savings account earning 2%
Expected return = (70% * 0%) + (30% * 2%)
= 0% + 0.6%
= 0.6%
Answer: $1392
Explanation:
The depreciation rate under straight line is =1/5=0.2
The depreciation rate under double declining is = 0.2 × 2 = 0.4
Depreciation expense for the first year = 0.4 × $5800 = $2320.
At the beginning of year two, net book value = $5800 - $2320 = $3480
Depreciation expense for year two = 0.4 × $3480 = $1392

Answer: A. Reserves ↓: Excess reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓
Explanation:
The discount rate is the rate at which the Fed lends money to banks and other depository type institutions. Normally banks have a reserve requirement that the Fed requires of them which states how much they are to leave with the Fed as a reserve. Banks tend to fall short of this reserve sometimes and so can borrow from the Fed to balance it off.
If the Fed increase the rate at which these banks can borrow, they will not want to do so thus leaving their Reserves at the Fed lower than it should be. They will then use their excess reserves which is money kept in reserve more than the Fed requires, to balance off their reserve at the Fed.
As a result of this reduction in their Excess reserve, they will have less money to give out as loans. With less loans being made, people will not have as much money to deposit after taking the loans. Money supply will then fall as a whole.
