Answer:

Correct option is (b)

Explanation:

Time available for work if Melanie chooses to travel by air = 7 hours

Income per hour = $40

Total income earned if chooses to travel by air = 40 × 7 = $280

Time available for work if Melanie chooses to drive = 4 hours

Total income earned if chooses to drive = 40 × 4 = $160

Price differential = 280 - 160 = $120

As a rational decision maker, Melanie will choose to fly over drive only if her price differential is below $120. She will choose to drive if price differential is above $120.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The current stock price is $21.54

Explanation:

The current price of the share of Knightmare Inc is the present value of all future cash flows receivable from owning stake in the company.

The future cash flows in this sense are the dividends payable by the company in years 1,2 and 3 which are $6.15,$9.05 and $12.25 per share respectively.

The discount factor in this case is given as 1/(1+r)^N where  r is the required rate of return of 11.7% and the relevant year of dividend receipt,hence the share price is computed thus:

Year   cash flow discount factor               PV

1            $6.15      1/(1+11.7%)^1=0.89525   $5.5

2             $9.05  1/(1+11.7%)^2=0.80148      $7,25

3            $12.25  1/(1+11.7%)^3=0.71753        $8.79

Total present value                                      $21.54

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the analysis shows whether the assemblies should process further or not is presented below:

Differential revenue  (38,000 units × ($51 - $44)) $266,000

Differential costs:  

Direct material (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Direct labor (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Variable overhead (38,000units × $1 per unit) ($38,000)

Fixed costs ($160,000  - $225,000) ($65,000)

Additional income (loss) from processing further $11,000

Since the amount comes in positive so it should be processed further

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $2,444.6 billion

Explanation:

FCFE= FCF+ Increase in debt- Interest (1-t)

        =  $205+$25-$22( 1-0.35)

        =$215.7

Market Value = [(215.7)1.02)]/ [11%-2%]

                      =$2,444.6

Assuming a single period growth rate of 2%,

the forecasted FCFE =$215.7(1+0.02)

                                  =$220.01 billion

Although this is not available in the options provided ,$220.01 billion is the correct answer.
