Answer:
The demand curve will shift to the left (reduce)
Explanation:
Shift in demand results from change in other factors affecting demand except for price.
There are wide-spread reports of contacting mad cow disease by consuming beef from Canada. This will result in a general decrease in the quantity of beef demanded (shift in demand to the left). At all prices there will be less demand for Canadian beef.
This is illustrated in the attached diagram.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": The difference between the expected YTM and the YTM of the comparable risk-free bond
.
Explanation:
Risk Premium is a return that exceeds the risk-free rate of return that the investment is expected to yield. The risk premium for an asset takes the form of compensation for investors who tolerate the additional risk of an investment compared to the risk-free asset. In fact, investors expect to receive risk premiums because of the risk they are engaged in with certain investment instruments.
Answer:
The correct answer is option (e).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
Capital budget = $1,000,000
Debt = 60%
Equity = 40%
Net income = $550,000
So, we can calculate the total dividend by using following formula:
Total dividend = net income - ( Equity × Capital budget )
= $550,000 - ( 40% × $1,000,000 )
= $550,000 - $400,000
= $150,000
Answer:
20.1%
Explanation:
In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:
<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>
Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>
Putting all the number together, we have:
Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%
<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>
Answer:
$2.25 per unit
Explanation:
The computation of the cost per equivalent is shown below:
= Total conversion cost ÷ total units completed
where,
Total conversion cost is
= Beginning work in process conversion cost + cost of conversion added
= $20,250 + 271,125
= 291,375
And, the number of units is
= Units completed + work in process ending inventory units × completion percentage
= 115,700 units + 23,000 units × 60%
= 115,700 + 13,800
= 129,500 units
So, the cost per equivalent unit for conversion cost is
= $291,375 ÷ 129,500 units
= $2.25 per unit
