Answer:
1. Year 1 expected value = $32.24
2. Required rate of return = 7.35%
Explanation:
1. For computing the stock price which is expected 1 year from now is shown below:
= Current Price × (1+rate)^number of years
= $31 × (1+0.04)^1
= $31 × 1.04
= $32.24
Hence, the expected 1 year value of stock price is $32.24
2. The required rate of return is computed by using an formula which is shown below:
= (Current Year dividend ÷ Current stock price)+ growth rate
where,
current year dividend is = D1
And, D1 = DO × (1+g)
where,
DO = previous dividend share
g = growth rate
So, $1 × (1+0.04)
= $1 × 1.04
= $1.04
Now apply these values to the above formula
So, required rate of return is equals to
= ($1.04 ÷ $31) + 0.04
= 7.35%
Hence, the required rate of return is 7.35%
Answer:
1. Overhead rate = Overhead costs / Direct material costs
Overhead rate = $684,000 / $1,900,000
Overhead rate = 0.36
Overhead rate = 36%
2. How much direct labor cost and overhead cost are assigned to this job?
Total cost of job in process $71,000
Less: Overhead applied $7,920
($22,000 * 36%)
Less: Material cost of job in process <u>$22,000</u>
Direct labor cost <u>$41,080</u>
Hence, direct labor cost is $41,080 and Overhead cost is $7,920
The answer that best complete the blank provided above is the term CANNIBALIZATION. Product cannibalization happens when a new product that is being introduced by the same producer, eats up the sales of the other products that exist in the same market resulting in the decrease of the overall sales.
Answer:
141,667 units
Explanation:
The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.
As such, the net operating income/loss is the difference between the sales and the total costs
.
Let the amount of sales in units be y then,
250y - 130y - 1,500,000 = 200,000
120y = 1,700,000
y = 1700000/12
= 141,667 units
Answer:
The maximum price that should be paid for one share of the company today is $54.895
Explanation:
The price of a stock that pays a dividend that grows at a constant rate forever can be calculated using the constant growth model of Dividend discount model (DDM) approach. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D1 / r - g
Where,
- D1 is the expected dividend for the next period or D0 * (1+g)
- r is the required rate of return
- g is the growth rate in dividends
SO, the maximum that should be paid for this stock today is:
P0 = 2.2 * (1 + 0.048) / (0.09 - 0.048)
P0 = $54.895 rounded off to $54.90
