Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per mile = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High miles - low miles)

= ($845 - $625) ÷ (3,350 miles - 2,250 miles)

= $220 ÷ 1,100 miles

= $0.2 per miles

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High miles × Variable cost per miles)

= $845 - (3,350 miles × $0.2 per miles)

= $845 - $670

= $175

And, the contribution margin income statement is presented below:

Sales (1,400 × $0.6)                                         $840

Less: Variable cost (1,400 × $0.2)                ($280)

Contribution margin                                        $560

Less: Fixed cost                                               ($175)

Net  operating income                                    $385

Murray Motor Company wants you to calculate its cost of common stock. During the next 12 months, the company expects to pay divi
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke)

$60 = $3 / (Ke - 8%)

Ke - 8% = $3 / $60 = 5%

Ke = 13%

b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn).

$60 (1 - $5/$60) = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

$55 = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

Kn - 8% = $3 / $55 = 5.45%

Kn = 13.45%

Flotation costs reduce the amount of money that the company receives for every new stock that it issues, therefore, it increases the cost of new stocks.

Suppose that the equation for the SML is Y = 0.05 + 0.07X, where Y is the average expected rate of return, 0.05 is the vertical
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Risk free interest rate is 5%

Y is 15.5% at a Beta of 1.5

X is 0.29 when Y is 7%

Explanation:

Risk free interest is 0.05 which 5% as given in the equation

The average expected return is given by Y

Y=0.05+0.07X

Since Beta is the same as X, when equals 1.5,Y is calculated thus

Y=0.05+0.07(1.5)

Y=0.05+0.105

Y=0.155

Y=15.5%

The value of Beta at an average return of 7% is computed thus:

7%=0.05+0.07X

where X is the unknown

0.07=0.05+0.07X

0.07-0.05=0.07X

0.02=0.07X

X=0.02/0.07

X=0.29

The scenario  illustrates that the Beta, which is the risk of investment and the Y , the expected average return are positively correlated.
