Agata [3.3K]

Using te dividend valuation model, the price of a stock is the present value of the future cash flows expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.

Where a stock is expected to pay dividend growing at a specific rate, the price of the stock can be dertermined as follows:

Price = D(1+g)/(ke-g)

Ber [7]

Answer:

(460 x $33.30) + (230 x $29.60) + (276 x $18.50) = $27,232

What is the amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020?

[(920 - 460) x $56.70] + [(690 - 230) x $50.40] + [(1,610 - 276) x $31.50] = $26,082 + $23,184 + $42,021 = $91,287

Explanation:

lump sum cost of chairs = $137,655

Type Chairs Selling Price Each Total

Lounge chairs 920 $90 $82,800

Armchairs 690 $80 $55,20

Straight chairs 1,610 $50 $80,500

total 3,220 $218,500

if we allocate costs based on resale, then each chair should cost:

Lounge chairs $90 x ($137,655 / $218,500) = $56.70

Armchairs $80 x ($137,655 / $218,500) = $50.40

Straight chairs $50 x ($137,655 / $218,500) = $31.50

contribution margin per chair:

Lounge chairs $90 - $56.70 = $33.30

Armchairs $80 - $50.40 = $29.60

Straight chairs $50 - $31.50 = $18.50
