Answer:

The correct option is B,$29.05

Explanation:

The required rate of return is can be computed using  Miller and Modgiliani CAPM formula below:

Ke=Rf+Beta*Mrp

Ke is the cost of equity which is unknown

Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%

Mrp is the market risk premium of 5.50%

Beta is 1.2

Ke=3.00%+(1.2*5.50%)

Ke =9.6%

The current price of the common stock is the present value of dividends payment and stock price(terminal value) as shown below discounted with Ke of 9.6%

Year 1 $1.25*(1+25%)=$1.56 *1/(1+9.6%)^1=$1.43

Year 2 $1.56*(1+25%)=$1.95 *1/(1+9.6%)^2=$1.63

Year 3 $1.95*(1+25%)=$2.44 *1/(1+9.6%)^3=$1.85

Year 4  $2.44*(1+25%)=$3.05 *1/(1+9.6%)^4=$2.11

Terminal value=year 4 dividend/ke=$3.05/9.6%=$31.79*1/(1+9.6%)^4=$22.03

Total present values=$1.43 +$1.63+$1.85 +$2.11 +$22.03=$29.05

What is the future value of $1800 invested today at 18% interest in 30 years with interest compounded quarterly?
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Future value of amount will be $354182.711

So option (C) will be the correct option

Explanation:

We have given present value P=$1800

Rate of interest r = 18 %

Time t = 30 years

As interest is paid quarterly so

Rate of interest r=\frac{18}{4}=4.5%

And time period = 30×4 = 120

Future value is given by A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n=1800\times (1+\frac{4.5}{100})^{120}=1800\times 196.768=$354182.711

So future value of amount will be $354182.711

So option (C) will be the correct option

Paul Bunyon Lumber Co. produces several products that can be sold at the split-off point or processed further and then sold. The
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Green Lumber

Explanation:

For computing the increase in profit, first, we have to compute the contribution margin which is shown below:

Contribution margin = Sales Value  +  Additional Sales Value - Variable Costs

So,

For Green Lumber = $159,600 + $24,000 - $178,000 = $5,600

For Rough Lumber = $124,000 + $28,200 -  $173,600 = ($21,400)

For Sawdust = $102,000 + $19,600 -  $130,000 = (8,400)

By this computation,we can interpret that Green lumber should be processed further as it has positive contribution margin and the other two would not be as it have negative contribution margin

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

ARR is 11.23%

Explanation:

The formula for accounting rate of return(ARR)=Average net income/initial investment

Average net income=net income for relevant relevant years/number of years

net income for relevant years=$360,000+$360,000+$600,000+$1,080,000+$1,200,000+$2,520,000+$1,444,000=$ 7,564,000.00  

number of years is 7

average net income=$ 7,564,000.00/7

                                 =$1,080,571.43  

Initial investment is $9,620,000

ARR=$1,080,571.43/ $9,620,000*100=11.23%

The average rate of return is 11.23%,the return expected on the average annually.

blondinia [14]

Answer:

$0.67 per direct labor-dollar

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct labor-dollars to support all productions = $8,370,000

Fixed overhead cost = $5,022,000

Variable overhead cost per direct labor-dollar = $0.07

Predetermined overhead rate:

= Variable\ overhead\ cost\ per\ DL\ dollar+\frac{Fixed\ overhead\ cost}{Direct\ labor-dollars}

=0.07+\frac{5,022,000}{8,370,000}

      = 0.07 + 0.6

      = $0.67 per direct labor-dollar

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a.  $195,000

b.  $423,525

c.  $412,125

d.  $434,625

e.  $665,375

f.   $525 over-applied

Explanation:

a. Cost of direct materials used.

Cost of direct materials used = Opening Materials Inventory + Materials Purchase - Ending Materials Inventory - Indirect materials

                    = $42,000 + $198,000 - $30,000 - $15,000

                    = $195,000

b. Total manufacturing costs.

Total manufacturing costs = Variable Manufacturing Costs + Fixed Manufacturing Costs

Total manufacturing costs calculation

Direct materials                                                         $195,000

Direct Labor ($150,000 - $34,500)                          $115,500

Indirect materials                                                        $15,000

Indirect labor                                                              $34,500

Other overhead costs - applied ($115,500 x 55%)  $63,525

Total Cost                                                                 $423,525

c. Cost of goods manufactured.

Cost of goods manufactured = Opening Work In Process + Total manufacturing costs - Closing Work In Process

                                                = $9,200 + $423,525 - $20,600

                                                = $412,125

d. Cost of goods sold.

Cost of goods sold = Opening Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of goods manufactured - Closing Finished Goods Inventory

                                = $56,000 + $412,125 -  $33,500

                                = $434,625

e. Gross profit.

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold

                    = $1,100,000 - $434,625

                    = $665,375

f. Overapplied or underapplied overhead

If Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads, we have under-applied overheads

and

If Applied Overheads > Actual Overheads, we have over-applied overheads

where,

Actual Overheads =  $15,000 + $34,500 + $13,500 = $63,000

Applied Overheads = $63,525

Over-applied overheads = Applied Overheads - Actual Overheads

                                         = $63,525 - $63,000

                                         = $525
