Answer:
The amount of the last annual dividend paid is <u>$4.3</u>.
Explanation:
Given:
The common stock of Zeta Group sells for $42 per share, has a rate of return of 12.2 percent, and a dividend growth rate of 1.8 percent annually.
Now, to find the amount of last annual dividend paid.
Let the amount of last annual dividend paid be 
Price of per share (
) = 
Rate of return (
) = 
Rate of dividend growth (
) = 
Now, to get the amount of last dividend paid we put formula:
<em>Multiplying both sides by 0.104 we get:</em>
<em />
<em />
<em>Dividing both sides by 1.018 we get:</em>
Therefore, the amount of the last annual dividend paid is $4.3.
Answer:
a. is always the middle value of replacement cost, net realizable value, and net realizable value less a normal profit margin.
Explanation:
As we know that inventory will be recorded at cost or market value whichever is lower. But in the given case, the replacement cost would be recorded at higher values and lesser values. Higher values represent the Net realizable value whereas the lesser values represent the net realizable value less than the normal profit margin.
And if the replacement cost lies in this range than it represents the designated market value.
Hence, option a is correct.
Answer: $1.50
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we are informed that the variable cost of each box is $1.50 and usually has a contribution margin of $0.80 per box.
We should note that the minimum transfer price that the box division should find as acceptable will be the relevant cost. In this case, the relevant cost is given as $1.50 pee box and therefore, the minimum transfer price will be $1.50.
Answer:
A. NPV for A= $61,658.06
NPV for B = $25,006.15
B. 1.36
1.17
Project A
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator
for project A :
Cash flow in
Year 0 = $(172,325)
Year 1 41,000
Year 2 47,000
Year 3 85,295
Year 4 86,400
Year 5 56,000
I = 10%
NPV = $61,658.06
for project B
year 0 = $ (145,960)
Cash flow in
Year 1 27,000
Year 2 52,000
Year 3 50,000
Year 4 71,000
Year 5 28,000
I = 10%
NPV = $25,006.15
profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment
for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36
For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17
The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
