Answer:
$26,000 adverse variance
Explanation:
Fixed Overheads Volume Variance = Budgeted Overheads at Actual Output - Budgeted Fixed Overheads
= $1.30 x 60,000 hours - $1.30 x 80,000
= $78,000 - $104,000
= $26,000 adverse variance
The fixed factory overhead volume variance is $26,000 adverse variance

Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
Mathematically,
Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life
Depreciation = (900,000 - 101,000)/5
= $159,800
Book value is the cost net accumulated depreciation
= $900,000 - $159,800
= $740,200
Answer:
- Stock is overpriced/ overvalued.
- Sell if you own it.
- Don't buy if you don't.
Explanation:
Use CAPM to find the required return on the stock:
Required return = Risk free rate + beta * ( Market return - risk free rate)
= 2.5% + 1.3 * (7% - 2.5%)
= 8.35%
Price based on Constant Dividend Growth Model (CDGM):
Price = Next dividend / (Required return - growth rate)
Next dividend = 1.40 * ( 1 + 4%)
= $1.456
Price = 1.456 / (8.35% - 4%)
= $33.47
<em>Stock is selling for $35. It is overvalued. Don't buy the stock. Sell if you have the stock. </em>
