Answer:

12.6%

Explanation:

Using the Capital Market Pricing Model (CAPM) to compute the expected rate of return on Dee's Fashion stock.

Expected rate of return = R_{f} +\beta (R_{m} -R_{f} )

Where R(f) = risk free rate of return, or market return less risk premium = 12.6% - 8.7% = 3.9%

\beta = the risk of the stock relative to the market risk. In this case, beta = 1, since the company is equally as risky as the market (as noted in the question)

R(m) = return of the stock market = 12.6%

Therefore, the expected rate of return on the stock

= 3.9% + 1 * (12.6% - 3.9%)

= 3.9% + 8.7%

= 12.6%.

The return is the same as the stock market return because the stock is equally as risky as the market.

St. Augustine Corporation originally budgeted for $360,000 of fixed overhead at 100% of normal production capacity. Production w
Ksju [112]

Answer:

$9,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the total fixed overhead variance is shown below:

= Actual fixed overhead costs - Budgeted fixed overhead

where,

Budgeted fixed overhead  is $360,000

And, the Actual fixed overhead cost is computed below:

= Actual fixed overhead × Actual production  ÷ budgeted production

= $360,000 × 11,700 units ÷ 12,000 units

= $351,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $351,000 - $360,000

= $9,000 unfavorable

George’s t-shirt shop produces 5,000 custom printed t-shirts per month. george’s fixed costs are $15,000 per month. the marginal
k0ka [10]

Answer: Price is $7 when sale is 5000 and $6 when sale is 7,500 units.  

Explanation:

Total cost of George = Fixed cost + Variable Cost = $15,000 + $4 (Units produced)  = $15,000 + $4(5000) $15,000 + $20,000 = $35,000


George will breakeven when his price is just sufficient to cost the total cost.  

Break even = Profit = 0 Total revenue - Total cost = 0 P*Q - $35,000 = 0 P*5000 = $35000 P= $35,000/5000 P=$7

 

If George sells 50% more, then his sales is 7,500 units.  

Total cost of George = Fixed cost + Variable Cost = $15,000 + $4 (Units produced)  = $15,000 + $4(7,500) $15,000 + $30,000 = $45,000


George will breakeven when his price is just sufficient to cost the total cost.


Break even = Profit = 0 Total revenue - Total cost = 0 P*Q - $45,000 = 0 P*7500 = $45000 P= $45,000/7,500 P=$6

When sales is 5000 units price is $7. When sales is 7,500 units price is $6.

Target profit a.are when sales and costs are exactly equal. b.can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation. c.equals d
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

b. can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation.

Explanation:

As the name implies, target profit can be explained to be the certain amount a business enterprise or a business organisation targets to hit at the end of its sales or at the end of her business dealings.

It can be easily seen in a cash flow planning as it is once modified to approximate cash flow, and also used for revealing expected results to investors and lenders. In all that it is been used for, in the scenario above, it also can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation, and deriving more conservative budgeting packages in business development too.

Adjust the contribution margin per unit and units sold based on an expected sales promotion.

Alter the fixed cost total and the contribution margin per unit for the effects of outsourcing production.

Alter the contribution margin for the effects of changing to a just-in-time production system.

If there is continually a large unfavorable variance between the target and actual profit, it may be necessary to examine the system used to derive the target profit,

During the month of September, direct labor cost totaled $11,000 and direct labor cost was 40% of prime cost. If total manufactu
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The correct answer is D: Manufacturing overhead= $45500

Explanation:

Giving the following information, we need to calculate the amount of manufacturing head.

Direct labor= $11000

Direct labor is 40% of prime costs

Total manufactured cost is= $73000

First, we need to calculate the direct material:

Prime cost= direct material + direct labor

If direct labor is 40% of prime costs, then:

Direct material=(11000*60/40=16500

Now, the manufactured cost formula is:

Manufactured cost= direct material + direct labor  + manufacturing overhead

By rearranging the formula:

<u>Manufacturing overhead= Manufactured costs - direct material - direct labor= 73000- 16500-11000=$45500</u>

Investors expect that Amalgamated Aircraft Parts, Inc. will pay a dividend of $2.50 in the coming year. Investors requirea 12% r
ELEN [110]

Answer:

$50

Explanation:

Dividend discount model (DDM) is used to calculate intrinsic value of a stock. Since the dividends are expected to grow indefinitely, the formula will be as follows;

Price (P0) = D1 / (r-g)

where D1 = Next year's dividend = 2.50

r = required rate of return = 12% or 0.12 as a decimal

g = dividend growth rate = 7%

Price (P0) = 2.50/(0.12-0.07)

P0 = 2.50 /0.05

P0 = $50
