Answer:
Risk-free rate decreases
Explanation:
The CAPM formula for calculating cost of equity requires one to know the value of 3 pieces of information only:
1. the market rate of return,
2. the beta value
3. the risk-free rate.
Ra = Rrf + [Ba∗(Rm−Rrf)]
where:
Ra=Cost of Equity
Rrf = Risk-Free Rate
Ba = Beta
Rm=Market Rate of Return
From the formula
Ra = Rrf + [1.2∗(Rm−Rrf)]
Ra = Rrf + 1.2Rm - 1.2Rrf
From Ra = 1.2Rm -0.2Rrf
From the expression above, it can be seen that the lower the value of Rrf (Risk-Free rate), the higher the value of Ra.
Answer:
A. $68,200
Explanation:
Retail Cost
Beginning inventory $60,000
$120,000
Plus: Net purchases. $312,000
$480,000
Goods available for sale $372,000
$600,000
Cost to retail percentage = $372,000 ÷ $600,000 = 62%
Less : Net sales
($490,000)
Estimated ending inventory at retail
$110,000
Estimated ending inventory at cost
62% × $110,000 = $68,200
Answer: 8.39%
Explanation:
Margin = Net Income/ Sales
Net income for the company including the new investment:
= 864,000 + (Sales * Contribution margin ratio - Fixed costs)
= 864,000 + (4,200,000 * 30% - 966,000)
= $1,158,000
The combined sales for the company is:
= 9,600,000 + 4,200,000
= $13,800,000
Combined margin:
= 1,158,000 / 13,800,000
= 8.39%

Answer:
$28.125
Explanation:
Dividend D1= $2
(Dividend is given at the end of 1 year)
Growth g= 4% or 0.04
Required Return r = 12% or 0.12
Step1- Share price of company A today
As per Dividend Growth Model
Share price =Expected dividend/(required return - growth rate)
S0 = Do(1+g) / (r-g)
S0 = D1/(r-g)
S0 = 2/(0.12-0.04)
S0 = $25
Therefore share price of company A today for given details will be $25
Step2 - Expected dividend at the end of 3 years
D4=D0(1+g)^4
( as we already have D1 which is one time growth multiplied, therefore to find dividend at the end of 3rd year we will multiply 1 Less growth multiplier to D1)
D4= D1(1+g)^3
D4 = 2(1+0.04)^3
D4 = $2.25
Step3 - Share price of company A in 3 year
Share price =Expected dividend/(required return - growth rate)
S3 = D4/(r-g)
S3 = 2.25/(0.12-0.04)
S3 = $28.125
Therefore share price of company A in 3 years for given details will be $28.125
