Answer:
Cost of common stock is 12.02%
Explanation:
The cost of common stock can be computed from share price formula given below:
share price=do*(1+g)/r-g
do is the dividend just paid which is $1.70
g is the expected dividend growth per year which is 3.10%
r is the cost of common stock which is unknown
share price is $19.65
by changing the subject of the formula:
r=do*(1+g)/share price+g
r=1.70*(1+3.10%)/19.65+3.10%
r=1.7527/19.65+3.10%
r=0.0892+3.10%=12.02%
The company's cost of capital which is also the cost of common stock is 12.02%

Answer:
It is cheaper to produce in-house. Cost savings= $3500
Explanation:
We need to find whether it is better to produce in-house or to purchase to a supplier.
Q= 175000
Produce in house:
Direct Materials $15,000
Direct Labor $5,000
Variable overhead $6,000
Fixed overhead $9,000
Total cost= $35000
Outsource:
Purchase Cost= 175000q*$0.18= $31500
Fixed Cost= (9000-2000)= $7000
Total cost=$38500
It is cheaper to produce in-house. Cost savings= $3500
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": the effect of the decrease in price on total revenue dominates the effect of the increase in quantity demanded on total revenue; overall total revenue declines.
Explanation:
Goods or services have inelastic demand when changes in prices do not affect their quantity demanded. If prices decrease or increase, the quantity demanded will remain at the same level or the change will be so minimal that it is not perceived. It is said then that <em>the decrease in price dominates the effect of the changes in quantity demanded.
</em>
However, <em>if prices decrease and the quantity demanded remains the same, the company's overall revenue will decrease.</em>
