From part a of the attached excel, the Before Tax Compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

From part b of the attached excel, the Employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $9,394.15

High (0.35) = $10,775.57

Holiday Laboratories Laboratories purchased a high speed industrial centrifuge at a cost of $420,000. Shipping costs totaled $15
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

$455,000

Explanation:

Given that,

high speed industrial centrifuge at a cost = $420,000

Shipping costs = $15,000

Foundation work =  $8,000

additional water line = $3,000

Labor and testing costs = $6,000

Materials used up in testing = $3,000

Total Costs to be capitalized:

= High-speed industrial centrifuge + Shipping costs + Foundation Work + Additional Water Line + Labor and testing costs + Materials used in testing

=  $420,000 + $15,000 + $8,000 + $3,000 + $6,000 + $3,000

= $455,000

Moody Farms just paid a dividend of $3.95 on its stock. The growth rate in dividends is expected to be a constant 5 percent per
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

$81.52

Explanation:

The current share price is the present value of future dividends as well as the present value of the terminal value of dividends beyond year 6 as shown thus:

Current dividend=$3.95

Year 1 dividend=$3.95*(1+5%)=$4.15

Year 2 dividend=$4.15*(1+5%)=$4.36

Year 3 dividend=$4.36*(1+5%)=$4.58

The required rate of return(discount rate) for the dividends in the FIRST 3 years above is 14%

Year 4 dividend=$4.58*(1+5%)=$4.81

Year 5 dividend=$4.81*(1+5%)=$5.05

Year 6 dividend=$5.05*(1+5%)=$5.30

The required rate of return(discount rate) for the dividends in the NEXT 3 years above is 12%

Terminal value of dividend=Year 6 dividend*(1+growth rate)/(rate of return-growth rate)

growth rate=5%

rate of return=10%(rate of return thereafter)

terminal value=$5.30*(1+5%)/(10%-5%)

terminal value=$111.30

current share price=$4.15/(1+14%)+$4.36/(1+14%)^2+$4.58/(1+14%)^3+$4.81/(1+12%)^4+$5.05/(1+12%)^5+$5.30/(1+12%)^6+$111.30/(1+10%)^6

current share price=$81.52
