Answer:

Explanation:

The cost of equity can be estimated using two (2) different models:

  1. <em>The Dividend Valuation Model</em>
  2. <em>The capital asset pricing model (CAPM)</em>

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.  </em>

The model is stated below as follows

P = D(1+g)/ke-g)  

<em>The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c </em>

<em>This model is considered superior to DVM. Hence, we will use the CAPM</em>

Using the CAPM , the expected return on a asset is given as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 2.86%, Rm-Rf - 7.00 β- 1.23

E(r) = 2.86% + 1.23× 7%

= 2.86% + 8.61%

= 11.47 %

Cost of equity= 11.47 %

Zina [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

Overhead allocated to Product X = Department A overhead cost+ Department B overhead cost

=  $51,157.84+$5755.62=

= $56,913

Calculations:

Using a single-driver allocation system, with direct labor hours as the driver, how much overhead was allocated to Product X:

Department A's Overhead rate per labor hour = Overhead costs/Total direct labor hours  = $4300000/60000 hours = $71.66 per hour

Overhead (Department A) = $71.66per hour*724 labor hours

= $51,157.84

Department B's Overhead rate per labor hour = Overhead costs/Total direct labor hours  = $2200000/60000 hours = $36.66 per hour

Overhead (Department A) = $36.66 per hour*157 labor hours

= $5755.62

Fischer Company uses 12,000 units of a part in its production process. The costs to make a part are: direct material, $15; direc
Trava [24]

Answer:

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of units= 12,000

Make in-house:

Direct material, $15

direct labor, $27

variable overhead, $15

applied fixed overhead, $32

Buy:

Buying price= $60

If Fischer buys the part, 75 percent of the applied fixed overhead would continue.

<u>First, we will calculate the avoidable fixed overhead per unit:</u>

Avoidable fixed overhead= 32*0.25= $8

<u>Now, the total differential cost of making in-house:</u>

<u></u>

Total cost of production= 12,000*(15 + 27 + 15 + 8)

Total cost of production= 12,000*65

Total cost of production= $780,000

Total cost of buying= 60*12,000= $720,000

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying
