Answer:
Minimum transfer price = $21
Explanation:
<em>Transfer price is the price at which goods are exchange between branches or divisions of the same group</em>
<em>Where a division is operating at the less than the existing capacity, to optimist the group profit, the minimum transfer price should be set as follows</em>
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost
Note that the fixed of $12 per unit (i.e 33-21) is irrelevant for this purpose, whether or not Hinges produces, it will be incurred either way.
It is worthy of note that there is no opportunity cost associated with any transfer to the Doors division because Hinges is currently having excess capacity.
Therefore, any offering price equal to or above the variable cost of $21 would be acceptable and optimize the group profit.
Hence, the minimum transfer price = $21
A market mix is the blending of four marketing elements product, distribution price and promotion
Answer:
Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%
Explanation:
WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt
16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%
16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity
Cost of Equity = 28.9556%
Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)
25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)
Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%
ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)
Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE
12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)* 1.4/(45%*9)
Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%
Answer:
A) $200,000 loss recognized by Jean and a basis in the land of $200,000 to Billie
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For loss recognized, the amount would be
= Land basis - fair value of land
= $400,000 - $200,000
= $200,000
And, the basis in the land should be equal to the fair value of the land i.e $200,000
Hence, the correct option is A
By dividing the fair value from the land basis we can get the loss recognized
