Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is $2.6 and for option (b) is $7.19.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

(a). If fastener division is not operating at full capacity,

then, opportunity cost = $0

Here, variable cost = $3.01

Fastener could avoid $0.41.

Then Variable cost = $3.01 - $0.41 = $2.6

So, we can calculate the minimum transfer price by using following formula:

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

= $2.6 + $0

= $2.6

(b). If fastener division is operating at full capacity,

then, opportunity cost = $7.60 - $3.01 = $4.59

Here, variable cost = $3.01

Fastener could avoid $0.41.

Then Variable cost = $3.01 - $0.41 = $2.6

So, we can calculate the minimum transfer price by using following formula:

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost

= $2.6 + $4.59

= $7.19

If the market risk premium increased to 6%, what would happen to the stock's required rate of return
Inessa [10]

Answer:

13%

Explanation:

As per the situation the solution of required rate of return first we need to find out the beta which is shown below:-

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

11% = 7% + Beta × 6%

Beta = 1

now If the market risk premium increased to 6% so,

The required rate of return = 7% + 1 × 6%

= 13%

Therefore for computing the required rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

KiRa [710]

Explanation:

A milestone is a typical measuring point used when establishing cost control. Which of the following does NOT accurately describes the use of cost control milestones?Select one:a. Project managers and sponsors often decide the number of milestones jointly.b. Milestones are often identified in the project charter.c. Project managers can use their cash flow projections to determine the funding needed to reach each milestone.d. Milestones are developed during risk planning.

<u>ANSWER</u>

It is not correct that milestones are developed during risk planning but rather they are developed during Project budgeting where the deliverables are identified in terms of the cost to achieve them. Truly as stated in the scenario's options, Project managers can use their cash flow projections to determine the funding needed to reach each milestone. It is in the project planning phase that these milestones are established by Project managers and sponsors jointly.
