Leyton Lumber Company has sales of $12 million per year, all on credit terms calling for payment within 30 days, and its account

s2008m [1.1K]

Solution and Explanation:

The following formula is used in order to calculate the days sales outstanding:

Days sales out standing = ( Accounts receivable divided by Sales ) multiply with 365

= $1.5 million divided by $12 million multiply with 365

After calculating we get, 45.625 days

In order to calculate the capital released, the following formula is used:

$Capital released $=$ Sales $*$ (DSO - Credit period) $/ 365$$

$=\$ 12 \text { million } *(45.625-30) / 365$

= 513699

Therefore, the capital released is $513699

Excise taxes are taxes levied on certain goods or services.

In this case the price of cola beverages is $4 per case, since excise taxes are included in the price of the product, then the excise tax on cola beverages = price paid by consumers - price received by producers = $4 - $2 = $2

Master Hatter's demand for hats is 25,000 per year. The order cost is $425 and the carrying cost is $4.50 per unit. The cost pai

laiz [17]

Answer with its Explanation:

Part A. Economic order quantity Computation

Economic order quantity can be calculated by using the following formula:

EOQ = Squaroot of (2* D * S / H)

Here

Ordering cost per order is $425 which is S

Annual Holding cost per unit per year is $4.5 which is H

Annual Demand is 25000 Units

By putting values, we have:

EOQ = (2 * 25000 * $425 / $4.5) ^(1 / 2) = 2173 Hats

Part B.

Total Cost at EOQ = Purchasing Cost + Total Ordering cost + Holding Cost

By putting values, we have:

Total Cost = 25,000 Units * $25 per unit + ($25,000 / 2173 Hats) * $425 + (2173 Hats / 2) * $4.5 = $634,778 Annual Cost

Part C.

For ordering at-least 2000 units per order, the total cost would be:

Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = 25,000 * $25 per unit + (25000/2000) * $425 + (2000/2) * $4.5

Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = $634,813

By ordering at least 2000 hats will bring a loss of $35 ($634,778 - $634,813), hence Master Hatter must only order in EOQ.

Whitepunk [10]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Caribou Gold Mining Corporation is expected to pay a dividend of $6 in the upcoming year. Dividends are expected to decline at the rate of 3% per year. The risk-free rate of return is 5%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 13%. The stock of Caribou Gold Mining Corporation has a beta of .5. Using the constant-growth DDM, the intrinsic value of the stock is _________. A. $150 B. $50 C. $100 D. $200

Answer:

$50

Explanation:

Caribou Gold mining corporation is expected to make a dividend payment of $6 next year

Dividend are expected to decline at a rate of 3%

= 3/100

= 0.03

The risk free rate of return is 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

The expected return on the market portfolio is 13%

= 13/100

= 0.13

The beta is 0.5

The first step is to calculate the expected rate of return

= 0.05+0.5(0.13-0.05)

= 0.05+0.5(0.08)

= 0.05+0.04

= 0.09

Therefore, the intrinsic value of the stock using the constant growth DDM model can be calculated as follows

Vo= 6/(0.09+0.03)

Vo= 6/0.12

Vo= $50

Hence the intrinsic value of the stock is $50
