Answer:

Current market value =$40.6

Explanation:

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return</em>.

PV of dividend from year 1 to 4

Year                                                             Present Value

1                 2 × (1.2) ×(1.057)^(-1) =                 2.27

2                  2 × (1.2)^2×(1.057)^(-2)=              2.58

3                 2 × (1.2)^3×(1.057)^(-3) =                2.93

4                  2 × (1.2)^4×(1.057)^(-4)  =            <u> 3.32 </u>

Total PV =                                                           11.10

PV of dividend from year 1 to 4 = 11.10

<em>PV of dividend from year 5 and beyond</em>

This will be done in two steps:

Step 1: PV (in year 4 terms) of  dividends

( 2 × (1.2)^4× (1-0.05) )/(0.057--(0.05)) = 36.82

Step 2 : PV( in year 0 terms) of dividends

=PV in (year 4 terms)× (1+r)^-4

=36.82  × 1.057^(-4) = 29.50

<em>PV of dividend from year 5 and beyond =</em>29.50

Current market value = Total PV of dividend =  11.10 +  29.50  = $40.6

Current market value =$40.6

JG Asset Services is recommending that you invest $1,500 in a 5-year certificate of deposit (CD) that pays 3.5% interest, compou
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

So after 5 year total amount will be $1781.529

So option (a) is correct option

Explanation:

We have given that JG Asset is recommending that you invest $1500 for 5 years at rate of 3.5%

So principle amount P = $1500

Rate of interest r = 3.5 %

Time n = 5 years

We know that when total amount is given by

A=P(1+\frac{5.5}{100})^n, here r is rate of interest and n is time period

So amount after 5 years will be

A=1500(1+\frac{3.5}{100})^5=$1781.52

So after 5 year total amount will be $1781.529

So option (a) is correct option

Suppose that video game discs are a normal good. If the incomeof video game players increase, you predict that in the market for
arlik [135]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

It was given that video game is a normal good. We know that there is a positive relationship between the demand for a normal good and income of the consumer, hence, if there is an increase in the income level of the consumer then as a result the demand for a normal good increases which shifts the demand curve for normal good rightwards.

Therefore, this will lead to increase both equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity in the market for video games.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Conversion cost= $58,300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor $ 29,000

Manufacturing overhead $ 29,300

<u>The conversion costs are the sum of the direct labor and manufacturing overhead:</u>

Conversion cost= direct labor + Manufacturing overhead

Conversion cost= 29,000 + 29,300

Conversion cost= $58,300

Alternative A would involve substantial fixed but relatively low variable costs: fixed costs would be $250,000 per year, and var
stepladder [879]

Answer:

From zero to 33 boats option B would be best

Explanation:

Assuming the first alternative (A)is 250,000 fixed and 500 per boat

second (B) 2,500 cost per boat

and third (C) 50,000 fixed and 1,000 cost per boat

We want' to know at which level B would be the best option

we want to know when alternative C or A have a cost of 2,500 or lower:

A:

500 + \frac{250,000}{Q} = 2,500

\frac{250,000}{2,500 - 500} = Q

Q = 125

From this point, as fixed cost will be distribute among more units, the cost will decrease meaking C better than B

C:

1,000 + \frac{50,000}{Q} = 2,500

\frac{50,000}{2,500 - 1,000} = Q

Q = 33.33

From this point, as fixed cost will be distribute among more units, the cost will decrease meaking A better than B

From zero to 33 boats option B would be the best of the three options

Kaspar Corporation makes a commercial-grade cooking griddle. The following information is available for Kaspar Corporation's ant
Leto [7]

Answer:

Total cost per unit is $77

Explanation:

Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit = Total fixed manufacturing overhead ÷ Number of units

= $478,800 ÷ 34,200 = $14 per unit

Fixed selling and administrative expenses per unit = Total Fixed selling and administrative expenses ÷ Number of units

= $171,000 ÷ 34,200 = $5 per unit.

Total cost per unit = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead + Variable selling expenses + Fixed selling expenses

Total cost per unit = $15 + $5 + $11 + $14 + $5 + $5 = $55 per unit.

Markup = 40% of total cost = $55 × 40% = $22

Therefore, total selling price per unit = Cost per unit + Markup

= $55 + $22 = $77 per unit.
