Answer: 6.42%

Explanation:

To calculate this, we use the formula for the Dividend Discount Model/ Gordon Growth Formula as follows:

P = D1/(r - g)

Where,

P = current stock price

D1 = Next dividend

r = required return

g = growth rate

We can make r the subject of the equation by,

P = D1/(r - g)

P(r - g) = D1

r - g = D1/P

r = D1/P + g

Calculating therefore we have,

r = 2.65/43.15 + 0.045

= 0.06417728852

= 6.42%

6.42% is the required return.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

6 right shoes and 12 left shoes

Explanation:

That Ork needs 2 left shoes for every right shoe, to match the feet configuration.

So, we have to look into the possible answers, which offers a 2 to 1 ratio for the left shoes.

<u>10 right shoes and 16 left shoes </u>

No. Left-shoes ratio is 1.6 not the 2 we need.

<u>12 right shoes and 12 left shoes </u>

No, the left-shoes ratio is 1, not the 2 we need.

<u>15 right shoes and 14 left shoes </u>

No, the left-shoes ratio is 14/15, less than 1, so not the 2 we need.

<u>6 right shoes and 12 left shoes</u>

YES!  The left-shoes ratio is 2, exactly what we need.

Alles Company uses a job costing system that applies factory overhead on the basis of direct labor dollars. No job was in proces
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(a)

For Job G15:

Direct labor = $20,000

Overhead applied = 16,000

Overhead rate = \frac{16,000}{20,000}\times 100

                         = 0.8 × 100

                         = 80%

Overhead applied = Direct labor × 80%

                         = $20,000 × 80%

                         = $16,000

Overhead is applied on direct labor. Hence, rate is 80%.

Overhead for Job B10 = Direct labor × 80%

                                     = $54,000  × 80%

                                     = $43,200

Therefore,

Total overhead applied = $43,200 + 45,750 + 16,000

                                        = $104,950

(b) Hence,

Overapplied overhead for February:

= Total overhead applied - Actual Overhead

= $104,950 - $68,500

= $36,450
