Answer:

$635,000 and : 34%

Explanation:

Margins of safety is the difference between expected sales and the break-even point.

For Zhao, expected sales are 10,000 units

The break-even points in units = fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit

fixed costs = $429,000

Contribution margin per unit = selling price - variable costs per unit

=$187 -  $122

=$65

break-even point in units = $429,000/$65

break-even point = 6600 units

Margin of safety = 10,000 - 6600 units

=3400 units

In dollars is equal to margin of safety in units x selling price

=3400 x 187

<u>=$635,000</u>

as a percent of expected sales.

=3400/10000 x 100

=0.34 x 10,000

=34%

Kelly Enterprises' stock currently sells for $35.25 per share. The dividend is projected to increase at a constant rate of 4.75%
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The answer is option e. $44.46

Explanation:

The stock's  expected price after 5 years can be expressed as;

FV=CV(1+RRR)^n

where;

FV=future value of stock/expected price after 5 years

CV=current price of stock

DGR=dividend growth rate

n=number of years

In our case;

FV=unknown

CV=$35.25 per share

DGW=4.75%=4.75/100=0.0475

n=5 years

replacing;

FV=35.25(1+0.0475)^5

FV=35.25(1.0475)^5

FV=44.46

Suppose the current price of a good is $130. At this price, the quantity supplied is 125 units, and the quantity demanded is 165
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity: 145

Equilibrium price: $140

Explanation:

In order to find the answer, first we determine the current difference between quantity supplied and quantity demanded.

Quantity supplied - quantity demanded = difference

125 - 165 = -40

So we have a shortage of -40 units.

We have the information that a $1 increase in price increases supply by 2, and decreases demand by 2. Thus, in order to close the shortage, we need a $10 price increase, because this will raise supply by 20 units, and lower demand by 20 units as well, bringing the 40 gap to 0.

For this reason, the equilibrium quantity is 145 units, and the equilibrium price is $140.
