The options are:

A switching production to products that absorb the least amounts of fixed manufacturing costs

B undervaluing ending inventory by not recording certain costs that have been incurred

C delaying items that absorb the greatest amount of fixed manufacturing costs

D switching production to products that absorb the most amounts of fixed manufacturing costs

E deferring maintenance to accelerate production

Answer:

deferring maintenance to accelerate production

Explanation:

In the production process if we want to increase operating income we need to reduce cost.

Producing for inventory to reduce cost involves production process that minimises what a business spends in order to increase profit.

A way this can be done is to defer or delay items increase cost of production.

For example if we defer maintenance to increase production, it will result in higher operating income.

Should the NLRB require union organizer access to the workplace as a quid pro quo for an employer demanding an election rather t

rewona [7]

Answer: yes

Explanation:this is so because When a union wants to unionize a new group of employees, it must first convince at least 30% of the employees to sign authorization cards. If the union successfully does so, the union then submits the cards to the NLRB for certification. If the NLRB certifies that the union has secured cards from 30% of the employees, it orders that a secret ballot election be held where the employees vote on whether to unionize. Typically, about two months pass between the time the NLRB certifies the cards and the time that the election actually takes place. During these two months, the union and the employer actively campaign for or against unionization. At the election, if a majority of employees vote to unionize, then the NLRB recognizes the union as the sole bargaining representative of the employees. The employer is then required by statute to bargain in good faith with the union to negotiate the “first contract” between the employees and the employer. This employment contract determines the terms and conditions for all employees represented by the union.

A company currently pays a dividend of $2.8 per share (D0 = $2.8). It is estimated that the company's dividend will grow at a ra

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Intrinsic value: 53.41 dollars

Explanation:

First, we use the CAPM model to know the value of the stock

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free 0.085

premium market =(market rate - risk free) = 0.045

beta(non diversifiable risk) 1.3

$Ke= 0.085 + 1.3 (0.045)$

Ke 0.14350

Now we need to know the present value of the future dividends:

D0 = 2.8

D1 = D0 x (1+g) = 2.8 * 1.23 = 3.444

D2 3.444 x 1.23 = 4.2361200

The next dividends, which are at perpetuity will we solve using the dividned grow model:

$\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value$

In this case dividends will be:

4.23612 x 1.07 = 4.5326484

return will be how return given by CAPM and g = 7%

plug this into the Dividend grow model.

$\frac{4.5326484}{0.1435 - 0.07} = Intrinsic \: Value$

value of the dividends at perpetity: 61.6686857

FInally is important to note this values are calculate in their current year. We must bring them to present day using the present value of a lump sum:

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

$\frac{3.444}{(1 + 0.1435)^{1} } = PV$

3.011805859

$\frac{4.23612}{(1 + 0.1435)^{2} } = PV$

3.239633762

$\frac{61.6686857}{(1 + 0.1435)^{2}} = PV$

47.16201531

We add them and get the value of the stock:

53.413455

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

[C] Strike price minus the premium

Explanation:

A put buyer refers to the one who purchases a right (and not the obligation) to sell(put) the underlying asset at a pre determined strike price/exercise price at a future date.

A put buyer is under no obligation to exercise his right of selling the underlying asset. He will exercise his right only when his strike price is greater than the current market price upon expiry of the contract.

Put Buyer's profit is expressed as;

= Strike price - Option premium paid - Current market price upon expiry

Thus, his NET sales proceeds are equal to his Strike Price as reduced by Option premium paid.
