Note:
I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.
The Complete Question is as under:
Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?
A. $766
B. $29818
C. $3137
D. $3211
Answer:
Option D. $3,137
Explanation:
The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.
The amount saved last year would be:
Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137
Hence the option C is correct here.
Answer:
Price of stock- $26
Explanation:
<em>Using te dividend valuation model, the price of a stock is the present value of the future cash flows expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.</em>
Where a stock is expected to pay dividend growing at a specific rate, the price of the stock can be dertermined as follows:
Price = D(1+g)/(ke-g)
D -dividend payable now,
Ke-required rate of return,
g - growth rate in dividend
So we can work out the price as follows:
Price = 1.25( 1+0.04)/(0.09-0.04)
= $26
Price =$26
