Answer:

Using Capital Asset Pricing Model

Ke= Rf +β(Market risk-premium)

Ke = 2.97 + 0.91(7.40)

Ke = 9.9%

Using Dividend Growth Model

Ke = Do<u>(1 + g) </u> + g

               Po

Ke = $3.69<u>(1 + 0.034)</u>  + 0.034

                    $69.57

Ke = $3.69<u>(1.034)</u> + 0.034

                  $69.57

Ke = 0.0548  + 0.034

Ke = 0.089 = 9%

The best estimate of the company's cost of equity is 9.9%

Explanation:

Cost of equity is a function of risk-free rate plus the product of beta and market risk-premium according to capital asset pricing model.

Using dividend growth model, cost of equity is a function of current dividend paid, subject to growth rate, divided by current market price plus growth rate.

2. Period costs for 10,000 units:

= 10,000 * $6.15

= $61,500

3. Variable cost per unit of 8,000 produced and sold:

= $11.55

4. Variable cost per unit of 12,500 produced and sold:

= $11.55

5. Total variable costs for 8,000 units produced and sold:

= 8,000 * $11.55

= $92,400

6. Total variable costs for 12,500 units produced and sold:

= 12,500 * $11.55

= $144,375

7. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 8,000 units:

= $4.00

8. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 12,500 units:

= $4.00

9. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 x $4.00

= $32,000

10. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 12,500 units:

= 12,500 x $4.00

= $50,000

11. Total amount of manufacturing overhead costs for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 * $5.60

= $44,800

per unit = $5.60

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead =     $4.00

Total per unit =                                  $5.60

12. Total amount of manufacturing overhead for 12,500 units:

= 12,500 x $5.60

= $70,000

per unit = $5.60

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead =     $4.00

Total per unit =                                  $5.60

13. Contribution margin per unit:

Selling price =                                          $21.40

Variable manufacturing cost per unit =  $9.90

Contribution margin per unit                  $11.50

14. Total amounts of direct and indirect manufacturing costs for 12,000 units:

Direct manufacturing costs = $9.90 x 12,000 =   $118,800

Indirect manufacturing costs = $4.00 x 12,000 = $48,000

15. Incremental manufacturing cost if Martinez increases production from 10,000 to 10,001:

= $9.90

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Average Cost Per Unit

Direct materials                              $ 5.40

Direct labor                                     $ 2.90

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60

Total Variable Costs per unit        $ 9.90

LO 2.2Explain the differences among fixed costs, variable costs, and mixed costs.
hjlf

Answer:

Explanation:

There are primarily two types of costs, i.e. variable costs and fixed costs. The variable cost is the cost that varies when the level of production changes, whereas the fixed cost is the cost that remains constant, whether the level of production changes or not.

Therefore, indirect material indirect labor, and factory supplies are included in the variable costs, and the fixed costs include supervision taxes and depreciation expenses.

The mixed cost is a mix combination of both the variable cost and the fixed cost which includes some components of fixed cost and some components of variable cost. It is also known as semi-variable cost

Example - transportation cost, tel communication cost, etc
