Answer:
a. 10.04%
b. $82.78
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
a. Expected rate of return or market capitalization = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 5% + 0.72 × (12% - 5%)
= 5% + 0.72 × 7%
= 5% + 5.04%
= 10.04%
The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium and the same is applied.
b. Now the intrinsic value would be
= Expected dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
= $5 ÷ (10.04% - 4%)
= $5 ÷ 6.04%
= $82.78
Answer:

Answer:
For Dan, the demand is price inelastic
Explanation:
One of the factors tat affect the quantity demand for a product is the price of the product. According to the law of demand, at lower price more quantity of a product would be purchased than at a higer price, all other this being being equal.
Price elasticity of Demand (PED)
The extent to which a change in price will cause a change in the quantity demand for a product is called the price elasticity of demand. It measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demand to a change in price.
It is calculated as
PED =% change in quantity demand / % change in price.
For Dan Newspaper , the price elasticity of demand
= 4%/8%
= 0.5
If the PED is greater than 1, the demand is price elastic
If the PED is less than 1 , demand is price inelastic
For Dan, the demand is price inelastic
Answer:
10,900 units
Explanation:
The applicable formula is the formula for calculating the cost of goods sold, COGS.
COGS = The applicable formula is the formula for calculating the cost of goods sold, COGS.
COGS = Beginning inventory + purchases - closing inventory
In this case, COGS will be 11,000 units: Beginning balance 1100 and ending balance of 1000.
11,000 = 1100 + P -1000
11,000 = 1100-1000 +P
11,000 = 100 + P
P= 11,000 -100
P= 10,900
Productions should be 10,900
