Len [333]

Answer: Relevant cost of new preferred stock = 10.53%

Explanation:

Given:

Dividend = $4.00 per share

Selling for = $40 per share.

Flotation costs = 5% of the selling price.

Marginal tax rate is 30%.

We can compute the cost of new preferred stocks using the following formula:

$Relevant\ cost\ of\ new\ preferred\ stock =\frac{ Dividend}{Current\ price\ after\ flotation\ Cost}$

$Relevant\ cost\ of\ new\ preferred\ stock =\frac{4}{40-(0.05\times40)}$

∴ Relevant cost of new preferred stock = 10.53%

Therefore, the correct option is (d)

Suppose that a worker in Caninia can produce either 2 blankets or 8 meals per day, and a worker in Felinia can produce either 5

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

15 blankets; 35 meals

Explanation:

First, we compute Opportunity Cost (OC).

In Caninia,

OC of blanket = 8/2 = 4 meals

OC of meals = 2/8 = 0.25 blanket

In Felinia,

OC of blanket = 1/5 = 0.2 meals

OC of meals = 5/1 = 5 blanket

Since Felinia can produce blankets at lower OC (0.2 < 4), so

Felinia has comparative advantage and specializing in blankets.

Total blankets produced with trade = 5 x 10

= 50

Since Caninia can produce meals at lower OC (0.25 < 5), so

Caninia has comparative advantage and specializing in meals.

Total meals produced with trade = 8 x 10

= 80

After trade,

Total blankets produced = 10 + 25

= 35

Decrease in blanket output = 50 - 35

= 15

Total meals produced = 40 + 5

= 45

Decrease in meals output = 80 - 45

= 35

Samples Corporation would like to use target costing for a new product it is considering introducing. At a selling price of $21

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

$18.60

Explanation:

Target cost:

= Sales revenue - Profit

= (No. of units sold × Selling price per unit) - (Investment require × desired return on investment)

= (20,000 × $21) - ($400,000 × 0.12)

= $420,000 - $48,000

= $372,000

Target cost per unit:

= Target cost ÷ Number of units

= $372,000 ÷ 20,000

= $18.60

Therefore, the target cost per unit is closest to $18.60.
