Answer:

The required rate of return for the project will be 13.087%

Explanation:

To calculate the required rate of return for the project, we must first calculate the required rate of return for the firm's equity. The required rate of return can be calculated using the CAPM or Capital Asset Pricing Model equation. The formula for required rate of return (r) under this model is,

r = rRf + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the risk premium on market

r = 0.027 + 1.23 * 0.069

r = 0.11187 or 11.187%

The discount rate that is usually used for an all equity firm is its required rate of return. Thus, the required rate of return for the project will be,

r = 0.11187 +  0.019

r = 0.13087 or 13.087%

Answer:

<u>Date                                      Purchases                    Sales        </u>

May 1                                1,550 units at $44

May 10                                720 units at $45

May 12                                                                    1,200 units

COGS                                                                  (720 x $45 = $32,400)

COGS                                                                  (480 x $44 = $21,120)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 12 SALE                       = $53,520

Inventory after sale        1,070 units at $44

May 20                             1,200 units at $48

May 14                                                                      830 units

COGS                                                                  (830 x $48 = $39,840)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 14 SALE                       = $39,840

Inventory after sale         1,070 units at $44

                                          370 units at $48

May 31                                                                    1,000 units

COGS                                                                  (370 x $48 = $17,760)

COGS                                                                  (630 x $44 = $27,720)

TOTAL COGS FOR MAY 12 SALE                       = $45,480

Inventory after sale        440 units at $44

Under LIFO (last in, first out), the cost of goods sold is determined using the price of the last units purchased, which means that the most recent (or updated) price is used to calculate COGS.
