Answer:

Markung Cost of Equity:

For this you should use the Capital Asset Pricing Model:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - Risk free rate)

= 5% + 1.50 * (6.5% - 5%)

= 7.25%

Total capital budget:

They will only pick projects with a rate of return that is higher than 12.55%:

= Project W + Project Y + Project Z

= 22,450 + 19,235 + 17,875

= $59,560

melomori [17]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $240,000

Unitary variable cost= $1.97

Selling price per unit= $4.97.

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 240,000 / (4.97 - 1.97)

Break-even point in units= 80,000 units

<u>The break-even point analysis provides information regarding the number of units to be sold to cover for the fixed and variable costs.</u>

If the forecasted sales are 120,000, this means that the company will cover costs and make a profit. The margin of safety is 40,000 units.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Slot one is C, Creativity, it's the only one that would really fit into the slot with making sense. Slot two is also C, Recoursefulness.

Explanation:

Creativity only makes sense since work ethic doesn't fit and her answering the question and creating something doesn't prove listening skills. Kevin does use behavorial skills but if you try repeating the sentence back to yourself and put Behavorial Skills in the blank, it doesn't flow like it's supposed to. When you go back to option B and C it's pretty obvious the only answer that would make sense is Recoursefullness, it also proves it in the text; "when he figures out a way to use the materials he has in the office to create the application."
