company currently has 150k shares outstanding, selling at $64 per share. The firm intends to raise $565k through a rights offering. Management suggests that a discount cannot fall below 11% as outlined in the previous issue, to which existing shareholders did not respond with much enthusiasm. They believe that a 37% discount offer is more appropriate. Also, the CEO is rejecting calls for raising capital through debt or preferred stock.
Net earnings after taxes (EAT) are $649k. Furthermore, a recent corruption scandal involving a number of senior figures in the firm has come to light in the press; soon after the rights offering was announced – in other words, it was already too late. Among the immediate consequences were a fall in stock price by 17.09% and increased capital requirements by 62%. Required: In percentage terms, determine by how much did the dollar value of one right change before and after the consequences described above, together with the 37% discount offer which was simultaneously taking place. Answer

1.If a stock is purchased for $100 per share and held one year, during which time a quarterly dividend of $1.5 is paid, each quarter, and the price climbs to $130 per share. What is the rate of return?

2.What should be the price for a common stock paying $1.35 annually in dividends if the dividend will remain constant (zero growth of dividend), indefinitely, and the expected return is 5.5%?

3.If the dividend yield for year one is expected to be 4% based on the current price of $80, what will year seven dividend (DIV₇) be if dividends grow at a constant 2%?

4.What dividend per share would be reported in the financial press for a stock that currently has 4.5% dividend yield and the most recent stock price was $75?

5.What would be the stock price today if you know you will sell the stock in 2 years from today at $55/share and you expect annual dividends $2/share in year 1 and $3/share in year 2, given the discount rate is 10%?

Dorothy Santosuosso does a lot of investing in the stock market and is a frequent user of​ stock-index options. She is convinced that the market is about to undergo a broad retreat and has decided to buy a put option on the​ S&P 100 Index. The put carries a strike price of 906 and is quoted in the financial press at $14.51. Although the​ S&P Index of 100 stocks is currently at 900.43​, Dorothy thinks it will drop to 851 by the expiration date on the option. How much profit will she​ make, and what will be her holding period return if she is​ right? How much will she lose if the​ S&P 100 goes up​ (rather than​ down) by 25 points and reaches 925 by the date of​ expiration?

A stock trades for ​$44 per share. A call option on that stock has a strike price of ​$52 and an expiration date six months in the future. The volatility of the​ stock's returns is 47​%, and the​ risk-free rate is 6​%. What is the Black and Scholes value of this​ option?

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) conducted a survey to learn about how drivers throughout the United States are using seat belts (Associated Press, August 25, 2003). Sample data consistent with the NHTSA survey are as follows:

1. For the United States, what is the probability that a
2. The seat belt usage probability for a U.S. driver a year earlier was .75. NHTSA chief Dr. Jeffrey Runge had hoped for a .78 probability in 2003. Would he have been pleased with the 2003 survey results?
3. What is the probability of seat belt usage by region of the country? What region has the highest seat belt usage?
4. What proportion of the drivers in the sample came from each region of the country? What region had the most drivers selected? What region had the second most drivers selected?
5. Assuming the total number of drivers in each region is the same, do you see any reason why the

probability estimate in part (a) might be too high? Explain.

Write a program that asks the user for the radius of a circle (as a double) and displays the diameter, circumference, and area of the circle.

Use a constant of 3.14159 as the value of pi. Have a blank line between the input and the output. Follow the 3 steps in the Information Processing Cycle - Input, Processing, and Output. The formulas needed are:

diameter = 2 * radius
circumference = 2 * pi * radius
area = pi * radius * radius

Have a blank line at the end of your program to separate the last line of output from your program from the "Press any key to continue . . .", and do this for all programs that you write.

Example Run #1:
(bold type is what is entered by the user)

Enter the radius of the circle (in inches): 5

The diameter of a circle with a radius of 5.00 inches is xx.xx inches.
The circumference of a circle with a radius of 5.00 inches is xx.xx inches.
The area of a circle with a radius of 5.00 inches is xx.xx square inches.

The example run shows EXACTLY how your program input and output will look.

Step 1:

Select a news article about a product or market which interests you and ties to concepts introduced in the macroeconomics. The article MUST come from a reputable media source ( See embedded file for list of suitable sources). The article should count at least 750 words and be dated after May 1, 2019. At this stage, you don't need to attach the article or embed a link. That will occur during Step 2 of the assignment. At this point you want to insure you've picked a valid topic/source.  Please include the following in your submission:

The Great Financial Crisis (GFC) in the United States: Causes and Policy Responses

Goal

Analyze the recent (2008-2009) episode in the United States – the Great Financial Crisis (or Great Contraction). Your job is to write a 500-word essay that will: (a) discuss the antecedents to the episode – seeds of the crisis that were previously sown. Then, using the IS-LM model, show both (b) the shocks to the economy which occurred and (c) the government policy response. Also, provide a short discussion of the implications for health care business/industry.

Background

Although it happened some time ago, the Great Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008-2009 continues to be heavily discussed, including in the popular press. For this assignment, you should read the article “A warning from the almost-depression” by Robert Samuelson, Washington Post, September 16, 2018. For several reasons, this episode is well-suited to the IS-LM model. Your job is to discuss that episode using the model.

Problem 4-10
Present and Future Values of Single Cash Flows for Different Interest Rates

Use both the TVM equations and a financial calculator to find the following values. Round your answers to the nearest cent. (Hint: Using a financial calculator, you can enter the known values and then press the appropriate key to find the unknown variable. Then, without clearing the TVM register, you can "override" the variable that changes by simply entering a new value for it and then pressing the key for the unknown variable to obtain the second answer. This procedure can be used in parts b and d, and in many other situations, to see how changes in input variables affect the output variable.)
