Answer:

(a) the earnings per share = $3

(b) the price-earnings ratio = 8x

(c) the dividends per share = $0.25

(d) the dividend yield = 1.04%

Explanation:

Common Stock Outstanding = 5,250,000/25 = 210,000 shares

Preferred Stock Outstanding = 6,000,000/200 = 30,000 shares

Preferred Stock Dividend per share = $4

(a) Earnings Per Share

EPS = <u>Net Income - Preferred Dividend</u>

            Common Stock Outstanding

EPS = <u>750,000 - (30,000 * 4)</u>

                  210,000

EPS = <u>630,000</u>

           210,000

EPS = $3

(b) Price-Earnings Ratio    

Market Price = $24

EPS = $3

P/E ratio = <u>Market Price</u>

                      EPS

P/E ratio = 24/3

P/E ratio = 8x

(c) Dividends Per Share

DPS = <u>               Total Dividends          </u>

             Common Stock Outstanding

DPS = 52,500/210,000

DPS = $0.25

(d) Dividend Yield

DY = <u>Dividend Per Share</u>

                   Price

DY = 0.25/24

DY = 1.04%

Custom Homebuilders (CH) designs and constructs high-end homes on large lots owned by customers. CH has developed several formul
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

$981,000 - Total Building Cost

Explanation:

To answer this question, we were told that the customer wants to build a moderate 3,800 square foot home. However, although it says with no utilities, utility cost will be applicable because it represents what is needed by the builders and engineers to get their work done on the vacant lot of land.

Therefore,  the cost to build = Administrative cost +  Building cost (moderate) + appliances cost + utilities cost

= $40,000 + (220 x 3800 square foot) + $45,000+ $60,000

=$40,000 + $836,000 + $45,000+ $60,000

= $981,000

Long-term debt outstanding: $300,000 Current yield to maturity (rdebt): 8% Number of shares of common stock: 10,000 Price per sh
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Cost of capital=11.18%

Explanation:

First We will calculate the Equity of firm:

Equity= Number of share* Book value per share

Equity= 10,000* $25

Equity= $250,000

Long-term debt=$300,000

Expected rate of return=15%=0.15

Current yield to maturity (rdebt)=8%=0.08.

Value of firm=Equity+Long-term debt

Value of firm= $250,000+$300,000

Value of firm= $550,000

Formula:

Cost\ of \ Capital=\frac{Equity}{Value\ of\ firm}* Rate\ of\ return+\frac{Debit}{Value\ of\ firm}* yield\ to\ maturity

Cost\ of\ Capital=\frac{\$250,000}{\$550,000}*0.15+\frac{\$300,000}{\$550,000}*0.08\\  Cost\ of\ Capital=0.1118

Cost of capital=11.18%
