Answer:
New price (P1) = $72.88
Explanation:
Given:
Risk-free rate of interest (Rf) = 5%
Expected rate of market return (Rm) = 17%
Old price (P0) = $64
Dividend (D) = $2
Beta (β) = 1.0
New price (P1) = ?
Computation of expected rate on return:
Expected rate on return (r) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(17% - 5%)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(12%)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 12%
Expected rate on return (r) = 17%
Computation:
Expected rate on return (r) = (D + P1 - P0) / P0
17% = ($2 + P1 - $64) / $64
0.17 = (2 + P1 - $64) / $64
10.88 = P1 - $62
New price (P1) = $72.88
Answer:
Marginal opportunity cost is the number of units of good 1 that are sacrificed for producing an additional unit of other good.
A) If we increase the production of butter from 1 to 2 then Guns production decreases from 36 to 26. Thus opportunity cost of second unit of butter is 10 guns.
B) Total opportunity cost of 2nd unit of butter = 18 guns
C) marginal opportunity cost of producing the third unit of butter = 12 Guns
D) Total opportunity cost of third unit of butter = 30 Guns
Answer:
The answer is: Cash and marketable securities $5,406,393
Explanation:
We have:
+ Current ratio = Current asset / Current liabilities = 2; with Current liabilities is given at $8 million => Current asset is $16 million;
+ Current asset = Inventory + Account Receivable + Cash and marketable securities <=> Cash and marketable securities = $16 million - Inventory - Account Receivable ( as current asset is calculated above at $16 million)
+ Average collection period = Account Receivable/ Credit Sales x 365 <=> Account Receivable = Average collection period/365 x Credit sales = 30/365 x 64 million = $5,260,274
+ Inventory turnover = Sales / Inventory <=> Inventory = Sales/ Inventory turnover = 64 million / 12 = $5,333,333
=> Cash and marketable securities = 16,000,000 - 5,333,333 - 5,260,274 = $5,406,393.
