Answer:
The contribution margin ratio is 35%
Explanation:
The formula for contribution is given below:
Contribution margin = revenue − variable costs.
Contribution margin ratio is given as:
(Sales – variable expenses) ÷ Sales
In this case,contribution is given as 1000*($20-$13), in other words selling price per unit minus variable cost multiplied by number of units sold.
Contribution is $7000
contribution margin ratio =$7000/($20*1000)
=0.35 or 35%
The implies that Hollis Industries makes a contribution of 35% per unit of output sold,hence, the contribution contributes towards covering fixed costs and making profit overall

Explanation:
To solve this, add the present values of the dividends from years 3, 4 and 5 and then add the present value of the terminal value of the stock at year 5.
Year 3 dividend = $0.50
Year 4 dividend = 0.50 * (1 + 49%) = $0.745
Year 5 dividend = 0.745 * 1.49 = $1.11005
= Dividend in year 3 / (1 + required rate of return)³ + Dividend in year 4 / (1 + required rate of return)⁴ + Dividend in year 5 / (1 + required rate of return)⁵ + (Dividend in year 5 * (1 + growth rate) / ( required rate of return - growth rate ) ) / (1 + required rate of return)⁵
= 0.5 / 1.16³ + 0.745/1.16⁴ + 1.11005/1.16⁵ + ( 1.11005 / (16% - 9%)) / 1.16⁵
= $8.81
