Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Standard of living is calculated as follows

Standard of living = Real GDP / Population

Growth in standard of living = growth in real GDP - growth in population

Now given growth in standard of living = 0

0 = growth in real GDP - growth in population

growth in real GDP = growth in population

growth in real GDP = 1%

Therefore, to keep living standards from falling, production have to increase by 1 %.

b )

If workforce increases by 1 % , that means population increases by 1 % and

productivity ( MPP ) increases by 1 % that means GDP increases by 1 %

Hence

Growth in standard of living = 1 % - 1 % = 0

The living standard will remain stagnant .

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years,

shtirl [24]

Answer:

e) $37.05

Explanation:

Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.

So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula

P = D (1+g)/r-g

r- rate of return, g = growth rate

Present value of the future dividends:

PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)

= 1.4047

PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)

= 1.27

PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)

Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)

=43.114

Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend

=43.114 × (1.12^(-2))

= 34.37

Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37

= $37.05

Note

To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0

Talja [164]

Answer:

Transactions Units Unit Cost Total Cost

a. Inventory, Beginning 4,000 $ 20 80,000

b. Purchase, March 5 10,000 21 210,000

c. Purchase, September 19 6,000 23 138,000

d. Sale, April 15 4,500 65 292500

e. Sale, October 31 9,000 68 612000

f. Operating expenses $615,000

Ending Inventory Units 6,500

Cost of Good Available for Sale = 80,000+ 210,000+ 138,000= $428,000

The number of units in ending inventory = Beginning + Purchases - Sales

=4000+ 10,000+ 6000- 4,500- 9,000

= 6500

FIFO cost of ending inventory $ 148500

6,000 units at $ 23 =$138,000

500 units at $ 21= $ 10500

FIFO cost of goods sold = Sales - FIFO Ending Inventory

= $ 904500- $ 148500= $ 756000

LIFO cost of ending inventory $ 132500

4,000 units at $ 20 =$80,000

2500 units at $ 21= $ 52500

LIFO cost of goods sold = Sales - LIFO Ending Inventory

= $ 904500- $ 132500= $ 772000

Weighted cost of ending inventory = ($428,000/20,000)*6500= $ 139100

Weighted cost of goods sold = Sales - Weighted Ending Inventory

=$ 904500-$ 139100= $765400
