Answer:
a. 41.6 million
b. 42.28 million
Explanation:
A) GIven
forecast in june = Sjune = 42 million
Checks recived in june = Xjune = 40 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for july
Sjuly = a*Xjune + (1-a)*Sjune
=0.2*40 + (1-0.2)*42 million
=8+33.6 = 41.6 million
B) forecast in july = Sjuly = 41.6 million
Checks recived in july = Xjuly = 45 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for August
Saugust = a*Xjuly + (1-a)*Sjuly
=0.2*45 + (1-0.2)*41.6 million
=9+33.28 = 42.28 million
<em>Note: This uses an exponential smoothing to forecast the results, but from the number of checks recived we see that it increases linearly. So we need a linear forecasting method .</em>

Answer:
$68.23
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the dividend growth rate model which is shown below:
The computation of the current share price is shown below:
= (Current year dividend) ÷ (Rate of return on company stock - growth rate)
= ($4.23) ÷ (10.6% - 4.4%)
= ($4.23) ÷ (6.2%)
= $68.23
We simply find out the ratio between the current year dividend per share and difference between the rate of return and the growth rate
Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
Labor (Variable input) hired = 151 units
After hiring this much units of labor, a firm incurred:
Marginal cost of hiring (MFC) = $0.30 and marginal product of labor (MRP) = $0.33
The firm continuing hiring new labor until the point at which marginal cost of hiring labor is equal to the marginal product of labor.
In this case, MFC is less than the MRP, so firm should increase the use of labor till the MFC becomes equal to the MRP.
