Answer:

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Explanation:

WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt

16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%

16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = 28.9556%

Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)

25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)

Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%

ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)

Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE

12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)*  1.4/(45%*9)

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Under absorption costing a company had the following per unit costs when 10,000 units were produced. Direct labor $ 2 Direct mat
Rudiy27

Answer: Total product cost per unit if 12,500 units = $13.

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct labor = $2

Direct material = $3

Variable overhead = $4

Total variable cost = $9

Fixed overhead ($50,000/10,000 units) = $5

Total product cost per unit = $14

Fixed Overhead at 12500 units = \frac{50000}{12500} = $4

∴  Total product cost per unit if 12,500 units = Total variable cost per unit + Fixed Overhead at 12500 units

= 9 + 4

= $13
