Dimas [21]

Answer:

From the calculation below Up-Towne Movers just paid a dividend of $3.13

Explanation:

The price of share=D1/r-g

The Do is the dividend just paid which is the unknown in the equation

g is the dividend growth rate of 4.3%

r is the required return of 11.1%

The share price is $46.00

$46=Do/(11.1%-4.3%)

46=Do/0.068

by cross-multiplication the equation becomes

$46*0.068 =Do

Do=$46*0.068

Do=$3.13

The dividend just paid by Up-Towne Movers is $3.13 as calculated above from the share price equation

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": harmonization.

Explanation:

In economics, convergence refers to the fact that poor countries' income per capita increases at a faster pace than in rich countries. At a certain point in time, every country's income per capita should converge at the same point.

Several actions could be carried out to fasten that process such as standardizing labor conditions across the European Community (EC) or free-trade blocks such as the North American Free-Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Once labor conditions have been subject to harmonization regardless of the region in the world, convergence will be a more attainable objective.

At its $60 selling price, Atlantic Company has sales of $15,000, variable manufacturing costs of $4,000, fixed manufacturing cos

Kay [80]

Answer:

$28

Explanation:

Step 1:

If a company sells a product at $60 each and makes a sale of $15,000, the number of units of items produced is

$15,000 ÷ $60 = 250 units.

Step 2:

To calculate the company's contribution margin per unit,

we have, (unit selling prices - unit production cost)

unit selling price is #60

unit cost of production is (total cost of prodcution ÷ number of units)

total cost of production is $4,000+ $1,000+ $2,000+ $1,000 = $8000

Unit cost of production is $8000 ÷ 250 = $32

i.e it takes $32 to manufacture 1 product.

Contribution margin = $60 - $32

= $28

∴ the contribution margin is $28.

Cheers.
