Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Actual units sold = 86000

Budgeted units sold = 89000

Budgeted selling price = 59

Budgeted variable cost = 34

Budgeted contribution margin = 59 - 34 = 25

Budgeted market share = 20%

Acual industry volume = 334000

Standard units sold = 20% × 334000 = 66800

Sales activity variance:

= (Actual units sold - Budgeted units sold) × Budgeted contribution margin

= (86000 - 89000) × 25

= -3000 × 25

= 75000 Unfavorable

Market share variance will be:

= (86000 × 25) - (66800 × 25)

= 2150000 - 1670000

= 480000 Favorable

Industry volume variance:

= (66800 × 25) - (89000 × 25)

= 1670000 - 2225000

= 555000 Unfavorable

Alan Jackson invests $20,000 at 8% annual interest, leaving the money invested without withdrawing any of the interest for 8 yea
kondaur [170]

Answer:

a. $32,800

b. $37,019

c. $37,460

Explanation:

a. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when simple interest is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount + (Rate of interest × Number of years)

= $20,000 + ($20,000 × 8% × 8)

= $32,800

b. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when annually Compounded is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest)^Number of years

= $20,000 × (1 + 0.08)^8

= $20,000 × 1.85093

= $37,019

c. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when semi annually Compounded is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest × Number of years ÷ 200)^16)

= ($20,000 × (1 + 0.08 × 8 ÷ 200)^16)

= $20,000 × 1.87298

= $37,460

Therefore we have applied the above formulas.

The Rhaegel Corporation’s common stock has a beta of 1.2. If the risk-free rate is 4.3 percent and the expected return on the ma
alexira [117]

Answer:

Cost of equity = 14.74%

Explanation:

The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model for estimating the return on a stock..

Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk.

Systematic risks are those which affect all economic actors in the market, they include factors like changes in interest rate, inflation, etc. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.  

Under CAPM,  

E(r)= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r)- cost of equity , Rf-risk-free rate , β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.  

Using this model, we can work out the value of beta as follows:  

β-1.2 Rf- 4.3%, Rm = 13%  

E(r) = 4.3% + 1.2 × (13 - 4.3)%=14.74 %

Expected return = 14.74 %

Cost of equity = 14.74%

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The cash budget and the capital budget are developed separately, and although t
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

e- The typical cash budget reflects interest paid on loans as well as income from the investment of surplus cash. These numbers, as well as other items on the cash budget, are expected values; hence, actual results might vary from the budgeted amounts.

Explanation:

Cash budgets are the budgets that are prepared to forecast the cashflows of the company. The amounts appearing in the Cash budget statement are the budgeted amounts measured by the company.

However, the interest to be paid on loans in the next year is a pre-determined value i.e. the rates of interest on loan are fixed and the return on investment is also fixed. Hence, these both values can be determined exactly. The other amounts appearing on the budget statement are forecasted amounts and the actual results may vary from the budgeted amounts.
