A five-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with a severe acute infection of the ethmoid sinuses. The patient has had a history of sinus infections. At three years of age, the patient had been diagnosed with a pneumonia infection, but did not have an increased level of white blood cells. Presently, the patient was treated with antibiotics and his antibodies against streptolysin O, an antigen from streptococci, were measured. The patient had no antibodies against SLO, and his IgG levels were low, IgA were undetectable, and his IgM levels were elevated. A biopsy was done of a lymph node and no secondary follicles or germinal centers were found. The patient was given a DPT vaccination, and no antibodies against the tetanus toxoid were generated as a result. When the patient’s cells were analyzed by flow cytometry, his CD19+ B cells stained positive for surface IgM and IgD, but not IgA or IgG. His T cells were isolated and stimulated in the lab with phorbol ester and ionomycin, but they did not bind CD40. There was no family history of susceptibility to infection. What deficiency does this patient suffer from?

a) You took out a one-year loan for $3000 and agreed to pay it in three equal installments, one payment at the end of 1 months, a second payment at the end of 2 months, and a last payment at the end of the year. What is the size of each payment? Assume interest rate is 9%.

b) In part (a), suppose that you made three non-equal payments: the first was $600 at the end of 1 month, the second was $800 at the end of 2 months and the final payment was $X at the end of the year. What is the value of X if interest rate is 8%? Use the declining balance method.

Assume this is a demand and supply schedule for a one-year discount bond with face value of $1,000. Complete the column for corresponding interest rate.

b. Given the above demand and supply schedules for the discount bond market, solve for equilibrium price, quantity, and interest rate.

Demand equation:   P_B = ________________________

Supply equation:    P_B = _________________________

Equilibrium price P* = _________________________

Equilibrium quantity Q* = _______________________

Equilibrium interest rate r* = _______________________

Assume there are three companies that in the past year paid exactly the same annual dividend of $1.77 a share. In​ addition, the future annual rate of growth in dividends for each of the three companies has been estimated as​ follows:

Buggies-Are-Us: g = 0 (i.e., dividends are expected to remain at $1.77/share)

Steady Freddie, Inc: g = 7% (for the foreseeable future)

Gang Buster Group:

Assume also that as the result of a strange set of​ circumstances, these three companies all have the same required rate of return ​(r = 11%).

(for all answers round to the nearest cent)

a. For​ Buggies-Are-Us, the value of the​ company's common shares is $_____.

For Steady​ Freddie, Inc., the value of the​ company's common shares is $_____.

For Gang Buster Group, the value of the company's common shares is $_____.

b. Comment briefly on the comparative values of these three companies. What is the major cause of the differences among these three​ valuations?

A. The value of​ Buggies-Are-Us is ​$16.09​, compared to ​$47.25 for Steady​ Freddie, Inc., and ​$57.22 for Gang Busters Group. The difference in values is caused by the difference in dividend growth rates. The​ Buggies-Are-Us dividends do not​ grow, resulting in the lowest value. The dividends of Steady​ Freddie, Inc., grow at a constant rate of 7% forever, whereas Gang Busters​ Group's dividends grow at approximately​ 12% for the first four years and 11% from year five to the foreseeable future. The higher growth in dividends in the earlier years causes the stock of Gang Busters Group to be worth more than Steady​ Freddie, Inc., stock.
