Manganese nodules are an ocean resource that is not currently economically profitable to mine. These nodules, about the size of a potato, form on the bottom of the ocean and in addition to manganese contain copper, nickel and cobalt. The main reason they are not economically viable at this time is that there are already plenty of these metals to be found on land.

creativ13 [48]

First we must determine the cost of goods sold during November. For this we use beginning inventory ($368,000) + purchases ($217,500) - ending inventory ($226,750). This gives us a total cost of goods sold for November of $358,750. Then, we take the net sales ($1,000,000) minus the cost of goods sold ($358,750) which equals our gross profit of $641,250. Finally we divide gross profit ($641,250) by net sales ($1,000,000) to determine the gross profit rate to be 64.125%

Radda [10]

Answer:

3.13%

Explanation:

The dividend yield refers to the payment by a company to its shareholders for their shareholding divided by current stock price of the company. This is usually expressed as a percentage and can be calculated for this question as follows:

Dividend yield = Dividends per share (DPS) ÷ Market price per share (MPS) = $2.05 ÷ $65.55 = 0.0313, or 3.13%.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

30.92%

Explanation:

You find the answer by calculating the cost of equity using two methods; Dividend discount model and CAPM

Dividend discount model;

cost of equity; r = (D1/P0) +g

whereby, D1 = next year's dividend = 3.00

P0= current price = 13.65

g = dividend growth rate = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal

r = (3/13.65) + 0.11

r = 0.2198 + 0.11

r= 0.3298 or 32.98%

Using CAPM;

r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)

r = 0.049 + (2.8 * 0.0856)

r = 0.049 + 0.2397

r = 0.2887 or 28.87%

Next, find the average of the two cost of equities;

=(32.98% + 28.87% )/2

= 30.92%
