Answer:

8

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The market capitalization rate on the stock = 14%

Expected ROE = 15%

Expected EPS = $56

Firm's plowback ratio = 60%

Based on the above information

The computation of the P/E ratio is shown below

But before that, we need to do the following calculations

As we know that

Payout ratio = (1 - plowback ratio )

= (1 - 0.6 )

= 0.4

Now

Growth rate = ROE × Retention ratio

=  0.15 × 0.60

= 9%

And,

Dividend for next period i.e D1 is

= EPS × Payout ratio

= $6 × 0.4

= $2 .4

So,

Current price = D1 ÷ ( Market capitalization rate - Growth rate )

= $2.4 ÷ ( 0.14 - 0.09 )

= $48

And, finally

P/E ratio is

= (Current price) ÷ (EPS)

= $48 ÷ $6

= 8

Doss [256]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the selling price per composite unit:</u>

<u></u>

selling price per composite unit= 1,280*0.6 + 530*0.4

selling price per composite unit= $980

<u>Now, the unitary variable cost per composite unit:</u>

Variable cost per composite unit= 780*0.6 + 280*0.4

Variable cost per composite unit= $580

<u>To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per composite unit

Break-even point in units= 150,000 / (980 - 580)

Break-even point in units= 375

<u>Finally, the number of units per product:</u>

Desks= 375*0.6= 225

Chairs= 375*0.4= 150

The blue giant has a profit margin of 6.2 percent and a dividend payout ratio of 40 percent. The capital intensity is 1.08 and t
Lana71 [14]

First we calculate the return on equity(ROE) based on the Du-pont equation

ROE =  Net profit margin * Total asset turnover * equity multiplier

Total asset turnover = 1/capital intensity =1/1.08

Equity multiplier = 1+ debt to equity = 1+ 0.54 = 1.54

net profit margin = 6.2% = 0.062

ROE = 0.062*1/1.08*1.54 = 0.0884 = 8.84%

Sustainable growth rate = ROE*(1- dividend payout)

Sustainable growth rate = 0.0884*(1-0.4)

Sustainable growth rate= 0.053 = 5.3%

Sustainable growth rate = 5.30%

notsponge [240]

Answer:

3,000 $100 bills equivalent to $300,000

Explanation:

The economic order quantity (EOQ) is the optimum quantity of a good to be purchased or required at a time in order to minimize ordering and carrying costs in inventory.

EOQ = the square root of [(2 times the annual demand in units times the incremental cost to process an order) divided by (the incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory)]

  • annual demand in units = 12,500 x 12 = 150,000
  • incremental costs to process an order = $300
  • incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory = 10% x 100 = $10

EOQ = √[(2 x 150,000 x $300) / $10] = √($90,000,000 / $10) = √9,000,000 = 3,000 bills

First, regardless of the strategy, _____ storage and _____ storage must be secured.
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is offsite and onsite.

Explanation:

When implementing Business Continuity the preservation of company data comes first.

Business Continuity Plan/Strategies are those measures that a company puts in place to ensure that regardless of the threat, and or disruption to the existing model that allows them to provide goods or services, (e.g. tsunamis or earthquakes, riots and civil unrests, compulsory government curfew) they can continue to function, reach their customers and remain operational.

The first rule of Business Continuity Plan is to protect all information assets. Off-site data or information refer to those information and or data that are remotely stored. That is, they are secured far away from the physical location of the business such as a data or server farm, cloud storage etc.

Onsite data storage refers to storing data on the premises or site of the business. Some fo the tools used are Hard Disk Drivers, Solid State Drives, DVDs etc.

Cheers!
