See attached file.
At junction B, by KCL (Kirchhoff's current law):
sum(Ii) = 0 => I1+I2 - I3 = 0
=> I3 = I1 + I2 .... (1)

For closed loop ABEFA, by KVL (Kirchhoff's voltage law):
sum(Ii*Ri) = sum(Ei) (take clockwise as +ve direction):
I3*R4 + I1*R1 = E1 ..........(2)
For closed mesh or ...

  • " In question 2, you incorrectly add in the $3.00 dividend that was just paid to determine the value of the stock price using the dividend discount model. In question 4 response, it should have also been recognized that dividend discount models are not useful if any of the parameters used in the model are inaccurate. "
