A firm achieves differentiation parity ideally when it sells its products or services at a higher price than its competitors.
The idea of parity is that a company sells its products at a higher cost than competitors even though the product or service isn't unique. Differentiation is when one companies products compete and are better than another with the same product.
Answer:
$ 49,640
Explanation:
The question is asking for PLANNING BUDGET
Planning Budget does not in anyway mean flexible budget.
So the quantity of units for Planning Budget would be what the company budgeted that is 7,300 units
The next step in the solution to the question will be to know the cost per unit. For Direct Labor the price given is $ 6.80 per unit
Total Direct Labor for May in the planning budget would be 7,300 X 6.80 = $ 49,640
Answer:
Dividend yield = 5.54%
The expected capital gains yield = 6%
Explanation:
Next Dividend (D1) = $1.44
Growth rate (g) = 6%
Required return (Ke) = 6% + 5.54% = 11.54%
Ke-g = 11.54% - 6% = 5.54%
Price = D1 / (ke / g) = 1.44 / 5.54% = $25.9927 = $26
a. Dividend yield = D1 / Price = $1.44 / $26
Dividend yield = 0.05538
Dividend yield = 0.0554
Dividend yield = 5.54%
b. The expected capital gains yield = Required return (Ke) - Dividend yield
The expected capital gains yield = 11.54% - 5.54%
The expected capital gains yield = 6%

<span>It is
believed that the tradition of celebrating April fools' day began
approximately in the mid sixteenth century when France (upon the directive of
Pope Gregory XIII) abandoned the Julian calendar in favor of the Gregorian
calendar. Use of this new calendar meant that the new year would now begin on
the first day of January as opposed to the first day of April. Those who did
not catch this news in time went on celebrating the beginning of the new year
on April 1st and as such they were ridiculed
and made the laughing stock on this account. These people would
henceforth be referred to as 'April fools'.</span></span>
Answer:
The discount rate is 12.46%
Explanation:
In this question, we use the Capital asset pricing model (CAPM).
The formula and computation of the discount rate is shown below:
= Risk-free rate of return + (Beta × Market risk premium)
= 3.5% + (1.12 × 8%)
= 3.5% + 8.96%
= 12.46%
Since we have to compute the discount rate for the project that involves the manufacturing of furniture, so we have to use the Integral designs beta instead of the Honest Abe because Integral design is a furniture maker
