Suppose that Omar's marginal utility for each additional cup of coffee is 5.5 utils per cup no matter how many cups he drinks. O
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Explanation:

To answer this question, we first need to calculate the marginal utility per dollar for doughnuts. Recall that the marginal utility per dollar for a good is the marginal utility divided by the price of the good (=MU/P). For the first doughnut we have 10 (=10/$1), the second doughnut 9(=9/$1), third 9, fourth 8, fifth 7, sixth 6, seventh 5, eighth 4, ninth 3, tenth 2 and eleventh 1. The marginal utility per dollar for every cup of coffee is 5.5 (=5.5/$1). To determine how big the budget would have to be before Omar would spend a dollar buying his first cup of coffee, we compare the marginal utility per dollar values. Omar will purchase the first doughnut before he buys a cup of coffee because the marginal utility per dollar for the doughnut is greater than the marginal utility per dollar for the cup of coffee (10>1.5). The same is true for the second through the eighth doughnut. This implies Omar will buy 8 doughnuts at the price of $1 before he buys his first cup of coffee. Therefore his budget will need to $9 before he buys his first cup of coffee, $8 on the doughnuts and $1 for the cup of coffee.

Kryger [21]
A. The items that fall under the DIRECT MATERIAL category include the following:
1. Film cost for the X ray machine.
2. Electricity cost for the X ray department.
3. Maintenance and repair on the X ray machine.
4. X ray department supplies.
The items that fall under the DIRECT LABOUR category include the following:
1. Salaries of the X ray machine technician.
2. Salary of the X ray technicians' supervisor.
The items that fall under the SERVICE OVERHEAD category include the following:
1. Wages for the hospital janitorial personnel.
2. Property taxes on the hospital building.
3. Depreciation on the hospital building.
4. Depreciation on the X ray department equipment [Manufacturing overhead]

B. The costs that are incurred during the production of a good or service are usually divided into three categories, which are direct material, direct labour and overhead costs.
Direct materials refer to those materials used in the production process which can be traced to a particular unit or department. A good example of a direct material is the raw materials used in the production unit for the production of a particular product.
Direct labour refers to the salaries and wages of those employees that are directly involved in the production process or in carrying out a particular operation. An example of a direct labour for the production of chocolates is the salary of those workers in the production unit.
Overhead cost refers to all other costs that are incurred during the process of production.These costs can not be traced to a specific department per say, but it cover the whole business unit. Overhead cost is of two types: administrative and manufacturing overheads. Examples of overhead costs are rent, utilities, insurance, depreciation, etc.

Adams and Collin Enterprises expect earnings and dividends to grow at a rate of 25% for the next 4 years, after the growth rate
ollegr [7]

Answer:

the intrinsic value of the stock is 42.97

If the stock is priced at 40 dollars it would be a good idea to purchase the share as will provide a better yield than the cost of capital of 9.6%

Explanation:

First, we solve for the cost of equity using the CAPM:

Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)

risk free = 0.03

market rate = 0.09

premium market = (market rate - risk free) = 0.055

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.2

Ke= 0.03 + 1.2 (0.055)

Ke = 0.09600

<em>Now we solve for the intrinsic price using the gordon model</em>

<em>with multi-stage growth:</em>

First, we calcualte the future dividends

grow rate Dividends

0                1.25

1 0.25       1.5625

2 0.25       1.953125

3 0.25       2.44140625

4 0.25       3.051757813

4 0.03     3.143310547

Now in the last year, we calcualte using the gordon model or constant grow:

\frac{3.143310547}{0.096-0.03} = Intrinsic \: Value

32.7128182

Now we calculate and add together the present value of each of this future cash flow to determnate the intrinsic  value ofthe share:

\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

Present Value

1 1.5625 / (1+0.096)^1     =  1.425638686

2 1.953125 / (1+0.096)^2 = 1.625956531

and so on, giving the following values:

3 1.854421226

4 2.114987712

present value of the future dividends at 3% 22.67126448

<u>Finally we add them and get:</u>

42.97160726
