Answer:

the present value break-even point in units per yea is 4680 units. the option (d) is correct

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The initial cash flow = $754,000

The project life is  = four years

Thus,

Contribution = sales - variable costs

So,

Sales = quantity * the price

Let the Quantity be Y

$230 Y - $102.40 Y

=127.60 Y

Now,

The operating income = Contribution -fixed costs

which is,

127. 60 Y- (Other depreciation or decrease + decrease)

127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + ($754,000/4))

= 127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + $188,500)

Thus,

127. 60 Y - $521, 500

Now,

Tax rate at 21% on operating income is =26.796 Y - 109. 515

The profit after tax = operating income - tax

(127. 60 Y - $521, 500) -(26.796 Y - 109. 515)

= 100.804 Y - 411, 985

Additional depreciation = $188, 500

The operating cash inflow per year = 100.804 Y - 411, 985 +  $188, 500

Thus,

The PVAF for 12 years , 4% = 3.037349

PV of operational cash inflow = 306.18 Y - 678, 802.02

However,

For the break even point: the initaila cash flow = The PV of functioning or operational cash inflow

So,

306.18 Y  - 678, 802.02 =$ 754,400

306.18 Y = 1, 432, 802.02

Y = 4680 Units

Mobray Corp. is experiencing rapid growth. Dividends are expected to grow at 32 percent per year during the next three years, 22
KatRina [158]

Answer:

$1.3794

Explanation:

The computation of the projected dividend for the coming year is shown below:

Last year dividend paid = Do

Expected Dividend in Year 1 (D1) = Do ( 1+g) = Do × 1.32

Dividend in Year 2 (D2) = Do ( 1+g)^2  = Do × 1.32^2

Dividend in Year 3 (D3) =  Do ( 1+g)^3 = Do × 1.32^3

Dividend in year 4 , (D4) = D3 ×  (1+g) = Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22

Now the price at year 4 is

P4 = D4 × (1+g) ÷ ( R-g )

= Do × 1.32^3 × 1.22 × (1 + 0.07 ) ÷ ( 0.10 - 0.07 )

= Do × 100.08

Use Gordon Growth Model

The Current Price of Stock is

= D1 ÷ ( 1+ R)^1 +D2 ÷ ( 1+ R)^2 + D3 ÷ ( 1+ R)^3 + D4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4 + P4 ÷ ( 1+ R)^4

$78  = Do ( 1.32 ÷ 1.1 + 1.32^2 ÷ 1.1 ^2 + 1.32^3 ÷ 1.1^3 +1.32^3 × 1.22 ÷ 1.1^4 + 100 .08 ÷ 1.1^4)  

$78 = Do ( 1.2 +1.44 + 1.728 + 1.9165 + 68.36 )

Do = $1.045

Now

Projected Dividend for Year 1 is

= Do × 1.32

= $1.045 × 1.32

= $1.3794

joja [24]

Answer:

A.$12,000

B.$8000

C.MRPL/PL = 3

MRPK/PK =2

D) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.

Explanation:

(a) The Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRPL) can said to be the additional revenue generated when an additional worker is employed.

$66,000 - $54,000 = $12,000

Thus, MRPL is 12,000

b) Marginal revenue product of capital is

( 62000 - 54000)= $8000

c) MRPL/PL = 12000/ 4000= 3

MRPK/PK = 8000/4000=2

Therefore Since these two ratios are not equal it means the firm is not using the least cost combination of inputs.

d) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.
