Answer:
Decline
Explanation:
there are four stages of product life cycle
1. introduction
2. growth
3. maturity
4. decline
In decline stage growth declines as a result of decrease in demand. The best decision at this stage is to divest the asset. Since Thermacare heat wrap was under performing it must be in decline stage and divestment of the brand was done by Procter and Gamble
Return on Investment = 83% or 0.83
total Profit = 75000
term = 6 yrs
annual profit = 75000 / 6 = 12500
initial investment = 15000
ROI = Net Profit / Total Asset
= 12500 / 15000
= 0.83 or 83% (0.83 x 100%)
Answer:
The Current share price is $94.79
Explanation:
Dividend Growth Model determines the share price of a company which offers perpetual dividend with stable growth. It is the expected dividend of a share divided by the net return rate of growth rate
.
According to given data
Last dividend = D0 = $3.40
Rate of return = 15%
Growth rates:
For 3 years = 29% per year
After 3 years = 7.3% in perpetuity
Dividend after 3 years = D3 = 3.40 x ( 1 + 0.29 )^3 = $7.30
We can calculate the price of share using following formula:
Price of share = D3 / Rate of return - Growth rate
Price of share = $7.30 / 15% - 7.3% = $7.30 / 7.70% = $94.79

$506,800
Explanation:
The calculation of budgeted materials cost is shown below:-
For computing the budgeted materials cost first we need to find out the total materials for production and materials to be purchased which is here below:-
Total materials for production = Budgeted production × Pounds of raw material per unit
= 35,000 × 4
= 140,000
Materials to be purchased = Total materials for production + Ending raw materials inventory - January 1 inventory
= 140,000 + (39,000 × 4 × 30%) - 42,000
= 140,000 + 46,800 - 42,000
= 186,800 - 42,000
= 144,800
Budgeted materials cost for January = Materials to be purchased × Cost per pound
= 144,800 × $3.50
= $506,800
