a. 10.9\n\n\nusing Gordon's dividend growht discount model, which is Dividends / (discount rate - growth), we see that:\n\n$1.80 (10.9% - 7%) = $46.15.\n\nof course, you have to use algebra to back into x, which was the 10.9%.

Dividend income is an OPERATING ACTIVITY. Dividends PAID are a financing activity.

Usually you have two options of receiving the dividend, via cash balance or reinvesting the amount.  I'm not sure what the 0.07 represents in your question.  If it is the shared bought by reinvesting the dividend, you now have 965.07 shares.

Dividends are payments made by a company to its shareholders. When a company earns a profit, some of it is reinvested in the business and called retained earnings, and some of it can be paid to its shareholders as a dividend. The frequency of these varies by country. In the United States dividends are usually declared quarterly by the board of directors. In some other countries dividends are paid biannually, as an interim dividend shortly after the company announces its interim results and a final dividend typically following its annual general meeting. In other countries, the board of directors will propose the payment of a dividend to shareholders at the annual meeting who will then vote on the proposal.\n\nIn the United States, decisions regarding the amount and frequency of dividends is solely at the discretion of the board of directors. Shareholders are explicitly forbidden from introducing shareholder resolutions involving specific amounts of dividends.\n\nWhere a company makes a loss during a year, it may opt to continue paying dividends from the retained earnings from previous years or to suspend the dividend. Where a company receives a one-off gain, e.g. from the sale of some assets, and has no plans to reinvest the proceeds, the money is often returned to shareholders in the form of a special dividend.

It's a fifty/fifty split.  But God gets a higher percentage if he reinvests in the company.  It's impossible to explain, and that is the beauty of it.

You do this kind of division the same way you do normal long division, with the powers of x analogous to the powers of ten.  But, like normal long division, you have to be careful with the signs!\n\nStart at the left - x-3 goes 2x^3 times into 2x^4, so multiply x-3 by 2x^3, which gives us 2x^4 - 6x^3.  So the first term in our quotient is 2x^3.  We subtract 2x^4 -6x^3 from the dividend, leaving 5x^3+15x^2+6x-18. \n\nWe carry on in the same vein, so we multiply x-3 by 5x^2, the second term in our quotient, getting 5x^3-15x^2, which again we subtract from the dividend.  This leaves us with 6x-18.  Now x-3 goes 6 times into 6x-18, so the third term in our quotient is 6.  6 times x-3 is 6x-18, which we subtract from the dividend, which leaves us with zero, so there is no remainder.  The result of the division is the sum of the three terms we generated, which is 2x^3+5x^2+6.\n\nAs for the factorisation, you will remember that x^2-1 has factors x+1 and x-1, so x^4-1 will have factors x^2-1 aand x^2+1.  Then x^2-1 has factors x-1 and x+1.  So the factorisation of x^4-1 is (x-1)(x+1)(x^2+1).  If you are OK with complex numbers the x^2+1 term may be further factorised to x+i and x-i, so then the factors are (x+1)(x-1)(x+i)(x-i).\n\nYou could have got straight there though by recognising that the fourth powers of +1, -1, +i and -i are all 1!

Let the share of each of your friends be denoted by the number x. According to the givens, "your" share is twice as much. That means, in our terms, it is twice is much as x, hence equals 2x. Then, you have 2x, each of the friends has x, the total number of their share is x+x+x=3x, according to our definition of x. So, their total share is 3x, your share is 2x, the total sum is then 3x+2x=5x.\nBut we know the total sum to be 125000. That means:\n\n5x=125000 Divide by 5 both sides and obtain\n\nx= 25000. Rememeber that we defined x to be the share of each friend, so 25000 is the share of each friend.\n\nBut the question was, how much is your share. As we said already, your share is 2x, in this case it means:\n\n2*25,000= 50, 000\n\nThat is the final answer, your share is:\n\n50,000$.\n\nHope that helps.

Figure it out - when you divide 60 by each of those numbers, which one leaves a remainder?

First, you got the divisor & dividend backwards........\n\nFor addition the answer is called the sum.  Not sure about 3, 2\n\nSubtraction:  minuend - subtrahend = difference

It's the answer you get from a division problem.

It is a Public Income note - basically a hybrid equity/debt security.  Companies issue them to raise capital, much like a preferred stock.  People buy them for the dividend flow, typically.

Chamwen gave a pretty good explanation of buying and selling for profit. There is one other factor, which you may or may not have been asking about. Many companies pay dividends to their shareholders. If you look at a detailed stock quote (see the link below), you'll usually see a 'dividend yield' figure (under the Valuation header on this page). In this case, HPT's dividend yield is 6.3% (meaning that over the course of the past year, they have paid dividends that equal 6.3% of their share price).\n\nThese dividends can be paid out to you to provide regular income (I own HPT through Sharebuilder, and have my dividends automatically reinvested).

Dividend cover shows how many times over the profits could have paid the dividend. \n\ndividend cover = EPS ÷ DPS\n\nThis indicates the ability of the firm to maintain the level of dividend paid out. \n\nThe higher the cover the better the ability to maintain dividends if profits drop. \n\nThis needs to be looked at in the context of how stable a company's earnings are: a low level of dividend cover might be acceptable in a company with very stable profits, but the same level of cover at company with volatile profits would indicate that dividends are at risk. \n\nHope that helps!

Remember order of operations:\nParenthesis\nExponents\nMultiplication\nDivision\nAddition\nSubtraction\n(Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally)\n\nIn the parenthesis, division is supposed to come before addition.\n0.076/12 = 0.00633\n0.00633+1 = 1.00633\n\nExponents come next.\n(1.00633)^36 = 1.255\n\nMultiply by 9250 to get $11610.44.
