Recently a project team for Cosco, the world's largest children's products company, developed a high chair that could be used as

an infant feeding seat, a youth chair, a play chair, a booster chair, and it could be reclined to make an infant bed. Its design could be made and sold for $49. Cosco rushed the chair into production to beat its competition before it was properly safety tested and when some children were injured as a result of this chair, Cosco denied culpability by saying that only a few consumers had had any trouble with the chair. These consumers had not read the instructions that came with the chair and had assembled it improperly. Cosco's actions exemplify which of the following philosophies?
1) existentialism
2) moral idealism
3) communism
4) socialism
5) utilitarianism

The failure to record which transaction has no effect on the quality of inventory?
zimovet [89]

Do not record transactions that do not affect inventory quality. A recorded inventory transaction has actually taken place.

Records of inventory purchases made during the accounting period. The purchase account is increased by direct debit. The manufacturing costs of the goods sold are overestimated by the same amount. An overstatement of cost of goods sold will result in an understatement of net income and retained earnings by the original margin of error.

If the auditor is dissatisfied with the accuracy of the closing balance sheet and may be materially increase.

Inventory write-downs affect both the income statement and the balance sheet. Write-offs are treated as expenses. This means your net income and tax liability will be reduced. Therefore, a decrease in net income will reduce a company's retained earnings and reduce shareholders' equity on the balance sheet.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The current price = \dfrac{Dividend(D_o) \times (1+ Growth  \ rate) }{\text{Cost of capital -Growth rate}}

15 = \dfrac{0.50 \times (1+ Growth rate)}{8\%-Growth rate}

15 \times (8 -Growth \  rate) = 0.50 +(0.50 \times growth  \  rate)

1.20 - (15 \times Growth \ rate) = 0.50 + (0.50 \times growth \ rate)

0.70 = (15 \times growth  \ rate) \\ \\ Growth  \ rate = \dfrac{0.70}{15.50} \\ \\ Growth  \ rate = 0.04516 \\ \\ Growth  \ rate \simeq 4.52\% \\ \\

2. The value of the stock  

Calculate the earnings at the end of  5 years:

Earnings (E_o) \times Dividend \  payout  \ ratio = Dividend (D_o) \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) \times 35\% = \$0.50 \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) =\dfrac{\$0.50}{35\%} \\ \\ = \$1.42857

Earnings (E_5) year \  5  = Earnings (E_o) \times (1 + Growth \ rate)^{no \ of \ years} \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \  5  = \$1.42857 \times (1 + 12\%)^5 \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \ 5  = \$2.51763

Terminal value year 5 = \dfrac{Earnings (E_5) \times (1+ Growth \ rate)}{Interest \ rate - Growth \ rate}

=\dfrac{\$2.51763\times (1+0.04516)}{8\%-0.04516}

=$75.526

Discount all potential future cash flows as follows to determine the stock's value:

\text{Value of stock today} =\bigg( \sum \limits ^{\text{no of years}}_{year =1} \dfrac{Dividend (D_o) \times 1 +Growth rate ) ^{\text{no of years}}}{(1+ interest rate )^{no\ of\ years} }

+ \dfrac{Terminal\ Value }{(1+interest \ rate )^{no \ of \ years}} \Bigg)

\implies \bigg(\dfrac{\$0.50\times (1 + 12\%)^1) }{(1+ 8\%)^{1} }+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^2 }{(1+8\% )^{2}}+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^3 }{(1+8\% )^{3}}  + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^4 }{(1+8\% )^{4}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^5 }{(1+8\% )^{5}} + \dfrac{\$75.526}{(1+8\% )^{5}} \bigg )

\implies \bigg(\dfrac{\$0.5600}{1.0800}+\dfrac{\$0.62720}{1.16640}+\dfrac{\$0.70246}{1.2597}+\dfrac{\$0.78676}{1.3605}+\dfrac{\$0.88117}{1.4693}+ \dfrac{\$75.526}{1.4693} \bigg)

=$ 54.1945

As a result, the analysts value the stock at $54.20, which is below their own estimates.

3. The value of the stock  

Calculate the earnings at the end of  5 years:

Earnings (E_o) \times Dividend payout ratio = Dividend (D_o) \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) \times 35\% = \$0.50 \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) =\dfrac{\$0.50}{35\%}\\ \\ = \$1.42857

Earnings (E_5) year  \ 5  = Earnings (E_o) \times (1 + Growth \ rate)^{no \ of \ years} \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year  \ 5  = \$1.42857 \times (1 + 12\%)^5 \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \  5  = \$2.51763 \\ \\

Terminal value year 5 =\dfrac{Earnings (E_5) \times (1+ Growth \ rate)\times dividend \ payout \ ratio}{Interest \ rate - Growth \ rate}

=\dfrac{\$2.51763\times (1+ 7 \%) \times 20\%}{8\%-7\%}

=$53.8773

Discount all potential cash flows as follows to determine the stock's value:

\text{Value of stock today} =\bigg( \sum \limits ^{\text{no of years}}_{year =1} \dfrac{Dividend (D_o) \times 1 + Growth rate ) ^{\text{no of years}}}{(1+ interest rate )^{no \ of\ years} }+ \dfrac{Terminal \ Value }{(1+interest \ rate )^{no \ of \ years }}   \bigg)

\implies \bigg( \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1 + 12\%)^1) }{(1+ 8\%)^{1} }+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^2 }{(1+8\% )^{2}}+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^3 }{(1+8\% )^{3}}  + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^4 }{(1+8\% )^{4}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^5 }{(1+8\% )^{5}} + \dfrac{\$53.8773}{(1+8\% )^{5}} \bigg)

\implies \bigg (\dfrac{\$0.5600}{1.0800}+\dfrac{\$0.62720}{1.16640}+\dfrac{\$0.70246}{1.2597}+\dfrac{\$0.78676}{1.3605}+\dfrac{\$0.88117}{1.4693}+ \dfrac{\$53.8773}{1.4693} \bigg)

=$39.460

As a result, the price is $39.460, and the other strategy would raise the value of the shareholders. Not this one, since paying a 100% dividend would result in a price of $54.20, which is higher than the current price.

Notice that the third question depicts the situation after 5 years, but the final decision will be the same since we are discounting in current terms. If compounding is used, the future value over 5 years is just the same as the first choice, which is the better option.

The presumption in the second portion is that after 5 years, the steady growth rate would be the same as measured in the first part (1).
