Answer:
c. $36,070
Explanation:
contribution margin ratio is the ratio of the contribution to sales of an entity for a given period.
contribution margin ratio= contribution/sales
where contribution is the difference between sales and the variable cost
Given;
sales = $137,000
contribution margin ratio = 61% = 0.61
0.61 = contribution/$137,000
contribution = $137,000 × 0.61
= $83,570
Net operating income is the difference between the contribution and the fixed cost.
Fixed cost = $47,500
Net operating income = $83,570 - $47,500
= $36,070

Answer:
Required rate of return = 10.75%
Explanation:
<em>The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity
</em>
The model is represented below:
P = D× (1+g)/ ke- g
Ke- cost of equity, g - growth rate, p - price of the stock
This model can used to work out the cost of equity, as follows:
Ke = D× (1+g)/p + g
Ke = (1.48× 1.05)/27   + 0.05
Ke= 0.107555556
Required return =  0.1075  × 100 = 10.75
Required rate of return = 10.75%
