Answer:

5%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Present value of the company, PV = $300,000

Current Profits, π₀ = $11,000

Interest rate, i = 9% = 0.09

Now,          

we know,            

PV = \pi_0(\frac{1+i}{1-g})

here,

g is the growth rate        

on rearranging, we get          

g =  i - \frac{(1+i)\pi_0}{PV}

on substituting the respective values, we get

g = 0.09 - \frac{(1+0.09)\times11,000}{300,000}

or  

g = 0.05

or

g = 0.05 × 100%

= 5%

Answer:

$24.18

Explanation:

Dividend for year 0 = $2.2

Dividend at year end 1 = $2.2

Dividend at year end 2 = $2.2(1 + .05) = 2.31

Dividend at year end 3 = $2.31 (1 + .05) = 2.4255

Dividend at year end 4 = $2.4255 (1 + .17)= 2.8378

Dividend at year end 5 = $2.8375 (1 + .09)= 3.0932

Dividend at year end 6 = $3.0932 (1 + .09) = 3.371

MPS = \frac{D_{1} }{(1\ +\ k)^{1} }  + \frac{D_{2} }{(1\ +\ k)^{2} } \ +\ \frac{D_{3} }{(1\ +\ k)^{3} } \ +\ \frac{D_{4} }{(1\ +\ k)^{4} }  +\ \frac{D_{5} }{(1\ +\ k)^{5} } \ + \frac{1}{(1\ +\ k)^{5} }  [\frac{D_{6} }{(k\ -\ g)\ ]}

where MPS = Market price of share

          D= Dividend for different years

          k = Cost of equity

          g= constant growth rate after year 5

putting values in above equation we get,

MPS = 1.864 + 1.65 + 1.478 + 1.463 + 1.352 + 0.4371 × 37.462

MPS = $24.18

The predetermined overhead rate

= $1,170,000/$900,000

= 1.3

This means that the company will incur an overhead cost of $1.30 for every $1 spent on direct materials.
