Answer:
The required rate of return is r = 0.1475 or 14.75%
Explanation:
The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.
The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rM is the return on market
r = 0.06 + 1.25 * (0.13 - 0.06)
r = 0.1475 or 14.75%
Answer:
Direct Material Cost
= Cost of hardware + cost of wood
= 42,300 + 121,200
= $163,500
Direct labor
= Wages of Assembly workers + Finishing workers
= 87,400 + 74,100
= $161,500
Manufacturing Overhead
= Depreciation + Factory prop. taxes + Factory rent + Glue + Production Supervisor salary + Utilities for factory + Wages for maintenance workers
= 32,000 + 15,500 + 50,000 + 3,030 + 41,200 + 27,800 + 33,200
= $202,730
Prime Cost
= Direct labor + Direct material
= 161,500 + 163,500
= $325,000
Conversion Cost
= Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead
= 161,500 + 202,730
= $364,230
Total Period Cost
= Advertising + Sales Manager's salary
= 25,600 + 41,500
= $67,100
Answer:
B. Credit to the fair value adjustment for $6000
Explanation:
December 31 (year 2)
Fair value adjustment account balance = $10,000 (Debit)
December 31 (year 3)
Fair value adjustment account balance = $154,000 - $150,000 =$4,000 (Debit)
As you can see in year 2 there were only $10,000 (debit) in fair value adjustment account but in year 3 the value dropped down to 4,000 debit which leads us to the journal entry of $6,000 Credit in fair value adjustment account balance
Answer:
equivalent annual cost: 19,784.81
The investment is not economically justified as it is cheaper to pay the fines than invest in the equipment to avoid them.
Explanation:
We calcualte the PMT of a 75,000 dollars equipment at 10%
PV 75,000
time 5
rate 0.1
C $ 19,784.811
EPA fines: <u> </u><u>$ 18,500.00 </u>
differential: (1, 284.81)
Answer:
d) 500,000
Explanation:
The amount that the worker is expected to save before retirement is the present value of the expected annual withdrawal using the interest rate of 10% as the discount rate:
savings balance at retirement=yearly cash withdrawal/interest rate
yearly cash withdrawal=$50,000
interest rate=10%
savings balance at retirement=$50,000/10%
savings balance at retirement$500,000
