11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Choice A is the correct answer

Explanation:

Howorth Dental Products

Cost of Production Report

Equivalent Units             Materials           Conversion Costs

Finished Goods             383000             383000

Ending WIP                    19000                6650 ( 19000* 35%)

Total Equivalent Units   402,000           389650        

Costs                                  Material           D.LAbor            FOH

Preceding Department    46,100            25,000             25000

Added                                85,800          98,300               98,700

Total Costs                       131,900            123,300            123,700

Material Costs Per Equivalent Unit = 131,900/ 402,000= 0.328

Direct LAbor Costs Per Equivalent Unit = 123,300/ 389,650=0.316

FOH Costs Per Equivalent Unit = 123,700/ 389,650=0.317

Total Cost per Equivalent unit = 0.328 + 0.316+0.317= 0.961≅ 0.962 (rounding would give a difference)

Costs Transferred to Finished Goods = 0.962* 383,000= $368,446

Costs OF Ending work in Process = 0.328 * 19,000 + 0.316* 6650 + 0.317 * 6650

Costs of Ending WIP= 6232 +2108.5+ 2101.4= 10,441.9

Total Cost Allocation= 368,446 + 10,441.9=  378,887.9

Equivalent units of direct material            402,000

Equivalent units of direct labor               389,650

Equivalent units of overhead              389,650

Costs per equivalent unit                  $0.962

Transferred to Finished Goods           $368,446

Total Ending Work in Process           $10,449

Total Cost Allocation       $378,895

There's a  minute difference in the WIP ending Inventory Costs  ( 10449 - 10441.9 = 7.1)and Total Costs ($378,895-378,887.9= 7.1) which is only due to rounding off. If you round off you will get the exact figures as given in the option.

Savickas Petroleum’s stock has a required return of 12%, and the stock sells for $43 per share. The firm just paid a dividend of
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

correct option is b.  6.78%

Explanation:

given data

required return = 12%

stock sells = $43 per share

dividend = $1.00

expected to grow = 30%

D4 = $1.00 × (1.30)^4 = $2.8561

solution

we get here first present value of dividend for 4 year that is

year        cash flow                   pv(13%)           present value

1                $1.30                        0.8929             $1.16                

2                $1.69                       0.7972              $1.35        

3                $2.20                      0.7118                $1.56  

4                $2.86                      0.6355               $1.82  

so  

present value of dividend for 4 year is = $5.8868

so

price of stock will be

price of stock = present value of dividend + price at year 4

43 = 5.8868 + \frac{2.86 \times (1+x)}{0.12-x}  

solve it we get

x = 6.78%

so correct option is b.  6.78%
