Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $0.10
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cost Machine Hours
March $3,106 15,176
April 2,668 9,558
May 2,892 11,947
June 3,538 17,899
<u>To calculate the variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (3,583 - 2,668) / (17,899 - 9,558)
Variable cost per unit= $0.10
Answer:
The expected excess return will be 11.4%
Explanation:
The S&P 500's excess return is the market return (rM). Using the CAPM model or the SML approach, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on the stock we are investing in.
The expected rate of return is,
r = rRF + β * (rM - rRF)
Thus, return on the invested stock will be:
r = 0.03 + 1.2 * (0.1 - 0.03)
r = 0.114 or 11.4%
