Example: when the need for food in a certain village is greater than what is supplied or produced in that village, there a shortage of food.

Paulson Company began the year with retained earnings of $500,000. During the year, the company issued $720,000 of common stock,

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Revenue for the period = $2,100,000

Explanation:

Provided information,

Opening balance of retained earnings = $500,000

Expenses recorded for the period = $2,000,000

Dividends paid during the period = $80,000

Closing balance of retained earnings = $520,000

Therefore increase in retained earnings = $520,000 - $500,000 = $20,000

Earnings for the period - Expenses for the period - Dividend for the period = $20,000

Now, putting values in above,

Earnings - $2,000,000 - $80,000 = $20,000

Earnings = $20,000 + $80,000 + $2,000,000 = $2,100,000

Revenue for the period = $2,100,000

"Expected Return Ecolap Inc. (ECL) recently paid a $0.46 dividend. The dividend is expected to grow at a 14.5 percent rate. At a

skad [1K]

Answer:

15.7%

Explanation:

The price of a stock can be modeled by the present value of the stream of future dividends discounted at a rate equal to the return expected.

The equation, when the dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate, less than the return rate is:

$Price_0=\dfrac{Div_1}{r-g}$

Where:

Price₀ is the current price: $44.12

Div₁ is the dividend to be paid a year from now: $0.46 × 1.145 = $0.53

g is the expected constant growth rate: 14.5% = 0.145

r is the expected return

Then, you can solve for r:

$r=\dfrac{Div_1}{Price_0}+g$

$r=\dfrac{\$ 0.53}{\$ 44.12}+0.145=0.157=15.7\%$
