Great Lakes Steel Supply is losing significant market share and thus its managers have decided to decrease the firm's annual div
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

There's an error in the numbers for this question; I found the correct one and pasted it below;

"Great Lakes Steel Supply is losing significant market share and thus its managers have decided to decrease the firm's annual dividend. The last annual dividend was $1.30 per share but all future dividends will be decreased by 2.75 percent annually. What is a share of this stock worth today at a required return of 15.5 percent? "

Explanation:

Use dividend discount model (DDM) to calculate the stock price

P0 = \frac{D0(1+g)}{r-g}

whereby,

P0 = Current price

D0 = Last dividend paid = 130

g = growth rate = -275% or -2.75 as a decimal

r = required return = 155% or 1.55 as a decimal

Next, plug in the numbers to the DDM formula above;

P0 = \frac{1.30(1-0.0275)}{0.155 + 0.0275} \\ \\ = \frac{1.2643}{0.1825} \\ \\ =6.9277

Therefore this stock is worth $6.93

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The ability of sellers to change the amount of the good they produce.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply: It is an economic measure to check the responsiveness of quantity supplied to the change of price. As per the law of supply, the supply of quantity increases with the increase in the price of goods and services and vice versa. The numerical value of elasticity indicates how is the response of quantity supplied to the price of the product. As zero indicates no response to the change in price and 1 indicate a higher response to the price of the product.

The key determinant of the price elasticity of supply is how well the seller is able to change the quantity supplied as per the price in the market.

Whirly Corporation’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is shown below: Total Per Unit Sales (10,000
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

See explanation section.

Explanation:

Requirement 1

New sales volume after increasing 100 units = (10,000 + 100) = 10,100 units. The revised net operating income is calculated as follows

                           Whirly Corporation’s

               Contribution format income statement

               For the year ended December 31 20YY

Sales Revenue (10,100 × 35) = 353,500 (Note - 1)

Less: Variable expense (10,100 × 20) = 202,000 (Note - 2)

Contribution Margin = $151,500

Less: Fixed Expense  $135,000

Net Operating Income $16,500

Note 1: Sale price per unit $350,000 ÷ 10,000 = $35

Note 2: Variable expense per unit $200,000 ÷ 10,000 = $20

Requirement 2

From requirement 1 we get,

Sale price per unit = $35

Variable expense per unit = $20

New sales volume after decreasing 100 units = (10,000 - 100) = 9,900 units. The revised net operating income is calculated as follows

                            Whirly Corporation’s

               Contribution format income statement

               For the year ended December 31 20YY

Sales Revenue (9,900 × 35) = 346,500

Less: Variable expense (9,900 × 20) = 198,000

Contribution Margin = $148,500

Less: Fixed Expense  $135,000

Net Operating Income $13,500

Requirement 3

From requirement 1 we get

Sale price per unit = $35

Variable expense per unit = $20

If the sales volume is 9,000 units, the revised net operating income is calculated as follows

                         Whirly Corporation’s

               Contribution format income statement

               For the year ended December 31 20YY

Sales Revenue (9,000 × 35) = $315,000

Less: Variable expense (9,000 × 20) = $180,000

Contribution Margin = $135,000

Less: Fixed Expense  $135,000

Net Operating Income           $0

If the company sells 9000 units, there will be no loss, no profit.
