Answer:

The correct answer is:  The expected rate of return for the stock would be around 7%.

Explanation:

The Beta coefficient is a numeral measure that portraits the volatility of a stock compared to the overall market performance. If a stock's beta is closed to the numerical value one (1) it implies it is highly correlated to the price movement of the overall market.

In that case, if a stock's beta is 0.8 it implies it follows the market price movements. If the stock expected rate return is 12% but the market return turns out to be 5% points below expectations, it means the stock's return would end up being around 7%.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Discs and the Internet are unreliable and often slow, and there's nothing quite as distracting as "<u>having this issue</u>" in the middle of a presentation.

Explanation:

Presentation is often a formal talk or sharing of ideas about a topic which can be on any field, matter, discovery, product, to an audience.    

Since discs are used for optical storage, which allows data storage and data retrieval are very good to store information for presentation.

However, discs can be unreliable likewise the internet. As a disc is a computer hardware, it can be attacked by a computer virus thereby affecting the stored data, and the internet speed also varies across locations, all these can cause distractions in the middle of a presentation especially if one needs the disc and the internet to be able to render a presentation efficiently.

  • Managerial economies of scale occur when large firms are able to afford specialists. They manage i an effective manner, particular areas of the company.
  • Economies of Scale refer to the cost advantage that us experienced by a firm when it increases its level of output.
  • The advantage of the huge buying arises due to the inverse relationship between per-unit fixed cost and the quantity produced. The greater the quantity of output produced, the lower the per-unit fixed cost.

New steel products has total assets of $820,470, a total asset turnover rate of 1. 39, a debt-equity ratio of 2. 8, and a return
nadya68 [22]

The firm's net income is $114,045,330.

Total Asset Turnover = Sales / Assets

or, 1.39 = Sales / $820,470

Sales = $820,470 × 1.39 = $1,140,453.3

Now,

Equity Multiplier

= Assets / Equity

= (Debt + Equity) / Equity

= (2.8 + 1) / 1

= 3.8

(Debt equity ratio has been used here)

As per Dupont Analysis,

ROE = Profit margin x Asset Turnover x Equity Multiplier

or, 0.34% = Profit Margin x 1.39 x 3.8

Profit Margin = 5.282%

Profit Margin = Net Income / Sales x 100

5.282% = Net Income / $1,140,453.3 x 100

Thus, Net Income = $114,045,330

Net income is an amount which an individual or business makes after deducting costs, taxes, and allowances. Thus, net income is what the business has left over after all its expenses.

Ashley Anderson pays her HOA dues of $660 for the calendar year. She then sells her property and closes on June 15. What is the
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The amount of the prepaid portion that is due back to Ashley using the 12 month, 360 day proration is=$362.34

Explanation:

<em>Step 1: Determine HOA per day</em>

Use the expression below to determine HOA per day;

T=H×N

where;

T=total HOA dues per year

H=HOA per day

N=number of days in a year

In our case;

T=$660

H=unknown

N=360 days

Replacing;

660=H×360

360 H=660

H=660/360

H=$1.83 per day

<em>Step 2: Determine amount of HOA that is due back</em>

Using the same expression;

T=H×N

but;

T=unknown

H=$1.83 per day

N=(June, 15 days)+(July, 30)+(Aug, 31)+(Sep. 30)+(Oct 31)+(Nov 30)+(Dec 31)

N=(15+30+31+30+31+30+31)=198 days

Replacing;

T=(1.83×198)=$362.34

The amount of the prepaid portion that is due back to Ashley using the 12 month, 360 day proration is=$362.34

Pup tents use 4 direct labor hours (DLH) per unit and Pop-up tents use 3 direct labor hours per unit. Compute the overhead cost
lora16 [44]

a) The computation of the single plantwide predetermined overhead rate for Tent Master is $6 per DLH ($252,000/42,000).

b) The computation of the overhead cost per unit for Pup and Pop-up Tents for Tent Master is computed as follows:

                               Pup Tents     Pop-up Tents

Overhead cost     $24 ($6 x 4)    $18 ($6 x 3)

c) The computation of the product cost per unit for Pup and Pop-up Tents is as follows:

Per Unit      Selling     Direct     Direct  Overhead     Product

                    Price   Materials   Labor    per unit    Cost / Unit

Pup tent       $ 78         $ 20      $ 45        $24             $89

Pop-up tent    73             25         30         $18             $73

d) The computation of the gross profit per unit (selling price per unit minus the product cost per unit) of Pup and Pop-up Tents is as follows:

Per Unit      Selling     Direct    Direct  Overhead   Product    Gross Profit

                    Price   Materials  Labor    per unit   Cost / Unit  (Loss) per unit

Pup tent      $ 78       $ 20      $ 45         $24             $89     ($11) ($78 - $89)

Pop-up tent   73          25          30          $18             $73       $0 ($73 - $73)

<h3>What does a product cost?</h3>

The determination of the product cost includes the costs of direct materials, direct labor, and overhead.  The overhead cost is allocated to each unit based on a predetermined overhead rate (budgeted overheads/budgeted usage) or using an activity-based costing technique.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Budgeted overhead costs = $252,000

Budgeted direct labor hours = 42,000

<h3>Question Completion:</h3>

Tent Master produces Pup tents and Pop-up tents. The company budgets $252,000 of overhead cost and 42,000 direct labor hours. Additional information follows:

Per Unit      Selling Price  Direct Materials  Direct Labor  DL Hours

Pup tent          $ 78                   $ 20                   $ 45            4

Pop-up tent       73                       25                      30            3

<h3>Required: </h3>

1. Compute a single plantwide overhead rate assuming the company allocates overhead costs based on 42,000 direct labor hours.

2. Pup tents use 4 direct labor hours (DLH) per unit and Pop-up tents use 3 direct labor hours per unit. Compute the overhead cost per unit for each product.

3. Compute the product cost per unit for each product.

4. For each product, compute the gross profit per unit (selling price per unit minus the product cost per unit).
