Answer:

Required rate of return on clover's stock is 8.99%

Explanation:

The required rate of return on Clover's stock can be computed using Miller and Modgliani capital asset pricing model formula given below:

Ke=Rf+beta*(Rm-Rf)

Ke is the required rate of return, the unknown

Rf is the risk free rate of return of 4.00%

beta for Clover is 0.80

Rm is the not known as well but can computed using the Parr paper's details below:

beta is 1.442

required return IS 13%

13.00%=4.00%+1.442*(Rm-4.00%)

13%-4%=1.442*(Rm-4.00%)

9%=1.442*(Rm-4.00%)

9%/1.442=Rm-4%

6.24% =Rm-4%

Rm=6.24%+4%

Rm=10.24%

Now the required return on Clover's stock can be computed

Ke=4%+0.8*(10.24%-4%)

Ke=8.99%

Dr Equipment account             $11850

Cr Cash account                                          $14750

2018 Depreciation

Dr depreciation expense          $4800.83

Cr Accumulated depreciation                     $4800.83

Explanation:

There are two policies for depreciating non-current asset  especially when it is acquired part-way through the year like we have here, namely full year depreciation in the year of purchase and none in the year of disposal or proportional depreciation throughout the useful life,I am adopting the former in this question.

Formula for depreciation=cost-residual value/useful life

Yearly depreciation is ($57200-$0)/10=$5720

However,after two years the book value is calculated thus:

Book value=$57200-($5720*2)=$45760

additional cost incurred in enhancing the capacity of the asset would be added :  $45760 +$11,850=$57610

Since the useful life has also been reviewed up to 12 years, the depreciation from now on is $57610/12=$4800.83

Which of the following statements is true if total fixed costs decrease while the sales price per unit and variable cost per uni
Trava [24]

Answer:

D. The breakeven point decreases.

Explanation:

Breakeven point of a business is defined as the point where it's total cost and total revenues are equal, at this point there is no gain or loss. Hen revenue is above this point profit is made, and when revenue is below this point there is loss.

The formula for break-even is

Breakeven point= Total fixed cost/(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)

Since sales price and variable cost is constant, let's say

(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)= constant (k)

So when we cross-multiply in the formula

Breakeven* k= Total fixed cost

It shows that Breakeven point is directly proportional to Total fixed cost.

So a reduction in Total fixed cost will result in a reduction in Breakeven point.

Why are the largest industrial corporations in the United States so committed to international marketing?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The US is the largest economy in the world, but it only represents about 1/4 of the total. That means that the opportunities of earning higher profits and effectively using all their resources increases dramatically when you serve the whole world. E.g. Apple is the mot valuable firm in the world and about 60}% of its revenue comes from foreign markets. Something similar applies to most large corporations, that would be much smaller and less profitable is they only served the US market.
