Ben and Mildred's Stables used two different independent variables (trainer hours and number of? horses) in two different equati

ons to evaluate the cost of training horses. The most recent results of the two regressions are as follows:
Trainer's hours: Variable Coefficient Standard Error t-Value Constant $1,005.45 $217.52 4.61 Independent Variable $22.54 $3.23 7.40 r2 = 0.56 Number of horses: Variable Coefficient Standard Error t-Value Constant $5,240.20 $1,180.32 4.44 Independent Variable $22.54 $3.23 4.75 r2= 0.63
What is the estimated total cost for the coming year if 14,700 trainer hours are incurred and the stable has 310 horses to be trained, based upon the best cost driver?
A. $13,995,671.20
B. $7,992.85
C. $332,343.45
D. $300,276.50

Answer:

the estimated total cost for the coming year is $12,227.60

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated total cost is shown below:

y

= Constant coefficient + independent variable coefficient × number of horses

= $5,240.20 + $22.54 × 310 horses

= $5,240.20 + $6,987.40

= $12,227.60

This is the answer but not the same is to be given in the options

hence, the estimated total cost for the coming year is $12,227.60

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The change in the dollar amount of inventory is $200 due to change in the inventory costing method.

Explanation:

The variable cost per unit is $6.00 while the fixed cost per unit is $2.00

Variable cost per unit = $6.00

Absorption cost pet units = $8.00

Total cost under absorption costing = Absorption cost per unit / number of units in ending inventory

Total absorption cost = $8.00 × 100 = $800

Total cost under variable cost = Variable cost per unit × number of units in ending inventory

Total variable cost = $6.00 × 100 = $600

Change in cost = Total absorption cost - Total variable cost

Change in cost = $800 - $600 = $200

Suppose a foreign investor who holds tax-exempt Eurobonds paying 10.50% is considering investing in an equivalent-risk domestic
algol13

Options:

a. 14.58%  

b. 12.83%  

c. 15.46%  

d. 16.33%  

e. 16.92%

Answer:

Correct option is A.

14.58%

Explanation:

After-tax yield = pre-tax yield x (1- marginal rate)

and Taxable-equivalent yield = tax-exempt yield / (1- marginal tax rate)

Hence Taxable-equivalent yield =.105/(1-.28)  

=.105/.72=.14583333

=14.58 %

"Parker Company stock is currently selling for $130.00 per share and the firm's dividends are expected to grow at 6 percent inde
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Cost of equity = 10.7%

Explanation:

<em>We will work out the required rate of return using the the dividend valuation model. The model states that the value of a stock is the present value of the future divided discounted at the cost of equity. </em>

The model is given below:

P = D× (1+g)/(r-g)

P- price of stock, D- dividend payable now, g- growth rate in dividend, r- cost of equity

So we substitute  

130 = 5.50× (1+r)/(r-0.06)

cross multiplying

(r-0.06)× 130 = 5.50 × (1+r)

130 r- 7.8  = 5.50 + 5.50r

collecting like terms

130 r - 5.50r=5.50 + 7.8

124.5  r= 13.3

Divide both sides by 124.5

r =13.3 /124.5=  0.1068

r=0.1068 × 100=  10.7%

Cost of equity = 10.7%
