Weston Corporation just paid a dividend of $2 a share (i. e., D0 = $2). The dividend is expected to grow 12% a year for the next 3 years and then at 5% a year thereafter. What is the expected dividend per share for each of the next 5 years? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest cent.

The correct answer for 5 years is $2.24, $2.5 , $2.8, $2.9 and $3.1 (approx.)

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Dividend = $2

For first 3 years = 12% per year

For 4th and 5th year = 5% per year

We can calculate the dividend for each year by using following formula:

Dividend = Dividend for last year × ( 1 + growth rate)

So, D0 = $2

Dividend For 1st year (D1) = $2 × 1.12 =  $2.24

Dividend for 2nd year (D2) = $2.24 × 1.12 = $2.5088

Dividend for 3rd year (D3) = $2.5088 × 1.12 = $2.809856

Dividend for 4th year (D4) = $2.809856 × 1.05 = $2.9503488

Dividend for 5th year (D5) = $2.9503488 × 1.05 = $3.09786624 or 3.1 (approx)

a recipe serves 8 people, and calls for 5 lbs of apples and 2 cups of flour. you want to prepare it for 24 people. divide 24 by 8 to get 3, and then multiply your ingredients by 3.

so for 24 people, you'll need 15 lbs of apples, and 6 cups of flour.
