ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Share price : $ 56.23

Explanation:

CAPM

Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)

risk free = 0.05

market rate = 0.11

premium market = (market rate - risk free) 0.06

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.64

Ke= 0.05 + 1.64 (0.06)

Ke 0.14840

Now, we solve for the present value of the future dividends:

year   dividend*     present value**

1  2.91                 2.53

2  3.31                 2.51

3  3.78         2.49

4  4.31                 2.48

4   80.38          46.22

TOTAL            56.23

*Dividends will be calculate as the previous year dividends tiems the grow rate

during the first four year is 14%

then, we calcualte the present value of all the future dividends growing at 9% using the dividend grow model:

\frac{D_1}{K_e-g}

(4.31 x 1.09) / (0.1484 - 0.09) = 80.38

Then we discount eahc using the present value of a lump sum:

\frac{Cashflow}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

We discount using the CAPM COst of Capital of 14.84%

last we add them all to get the share price: $ 56.23

Nataly [62]

Answer:

EOQ = 72 units

Explanation:

Annual demand D = 1,286 units

Ordering cost S = $47

Holding percentage I = 35%

So, 0 - 199 units, the unit cost is $66

EOQ = \sqrt{2DS/PI}

EOQ = \sqrt{(2 * 1286 * 47)/(66*0.35)}

EOQ = \sqrt{5233.07}

EOQ = 72.33998613

EOQ = 72 units

Simply stated, it is the cost of not enjoying the benefits, profits or value associated with the alternative forgone or best alternative choice available.
