Answer:

1. Product

The stock of Nogro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be

V125BC [204]

Answer:

a) required rate of return = 10%

b)Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Explanation:

The question is in three parts and will be answered accordingly

a) The Required Rate of Return = (The Dividend Expected for the next year/ Current Price of Stock) + the Growth rate

First, we calculate the Dividend expected per share for the next year

=earnings per share x Dividends pay out ratio

=$2 /$10 = 20%

Secondly, we now calculate the return on equity as follows

= Expected Earnings Per share / Current Selling price

= $2 x (1-50%) = 10%

The third is to calculate the Growth rate =

Return on Equity x (1 - Dividend payout ratio)

= 20% x (1-50%) = 10%

Using this with the formula of required rate of return

= ($1 /$10) +10% = 20%

b) First the assumption is that all earnings were paid as dividend with no reinvestment and in this scenario, the lack of reinvestment will mean no growth. Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) Because the Return on Equity is equal to required rate of return, it means a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Sunset Travel Agency specializes in flights between Toronto and Jamaica. It books passengers on Hamilton Air. Sunset’s fixed cos

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

1 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $43 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $43 = $47 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $47 = 500 tickets

1 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $47 = 712.77, or 713 tickets

2 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $40 = $50 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $50 = 470 tickets

2 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $50 = 670 tickets

3 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $60 – $40 = $20 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $20 = 1,175 tickets

3 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $20 = 1,675 tickets

Comment:

Due a fall in commission, there are appreciable increases in the break-even point and the number tickets that have to be sold to meet a targeted operating income of $10,000.

4 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 + $5 = $65 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $65 – $40 = $25 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $25 = 940 tickets

4 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $25 = 1,340 tickets

Comment:

The $5 delivery fee brings about an increased contribution margin higher than before, which makes both the break-even point and the tickets sold to achieve operating income of $10,000 to fall.
