Answer:
a. 14.75%
b. Under priced
Explanation:
The computation for the required rate of return is shown below:
a. Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 6% + 1.25 × (13% - 6%)
= 6% + 1.25 × 7%
= 6% + 8.75%
= 14.75%
b. As the required rate of return comes 14.75% and the required return is 16% so it is under priced as expected return is more than the required return
Answer:
sales is $2,500,000
Explanation:
The target sales for the company to achieve a net income of $450,000 in the current year equals the net income plus variable cost plus the fixed costs.
To understand this better,let us use the net income formula:
net income=sales-variable costs-fixed costs
by changing the subject of the formula,we the formula for sales:
sales=net income+variable costs+fixed costs
variable costs=sales*70%=0.7 sales
sales=$450,000+$300,000+0.7 sales
sales-0.7 sales=$750,000
0.3 sales=$750,000
sales=$750,000/0.3=$2,500,000
