Answer:
11.14%
Explanation:
Blume's formula is used to combine both arithmetic and geometric returns. This is because using arithmetic growth rate exclusively would be overly optimistic for longer time horizons and on the other hand, using geometric growth rates exclusively would be overly pessimistic for short time horizons.
Using the attached formula, plug in the given numbers;
R(T) would be the sale growth rate we need to calculate.
R(T) = 
R(T) =0.0257 + 0.0857
R(T) = 0.1114 as a decimal
Therefore, the forecast sales growth would be 11.14%
Answer:
The firm's unleveraged beta is 1.0251
Explanation:
Hamada's equation is used to separate the financial risk of a levered firm from its business risk.
The Hamada equation:
Bu= Bl/(1 + (1 − T)(D/E))
Bl = 1.4
wd = 0.36
Tax rate = 35%
D/E = wd / (1 – wd) = 0.5625 = 56.25%
= 1.4/ (1+(1-0.35)(0.5625))
=1.4/ 1 + (0.65)(0.5625)
=1.4/1.36
= 1.0251

During the collection we have 2 steps to consider; First, On March 29 during the unexpected collection, Dexter shoud set up the reversal of the write-off entry which they had made last March 11. So we debit Accounts receivable and credit bad debts in the amount of $9,100. Second, is to record the collection, debit cash and credit Accounts receivable in the amount of $9,100.
