g If you require an annual rate of return of 12 percent, what should be the estimate of the amount of the annual dividend which

choli [55]

Answer:

Its very simple, the required return would be 12% of the amount invested today. And this can be explained by the use of DVM (Dividend valuation Model), which is as under:

For ordinary shares r = (Dividend after one year / Share price now)

Dividend after one year = Required return * Share Price Now

Assuming no growth in the dividends, we can say that the required return would be 12% of the amount invested now which is the share price of the ordinary shares.

Given :

Future value, FV = $15,000

Interest rate, r = 6%

Period, n = 4 years

Using the Present Value formula :

PV = FV(1 ÷ (1 + r)^n)

15000(1 ÷ (1 + r)^n)

15000(1 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^4)

15000(1 ÷ 1.06^4)

15000(1 ÷ 1.26247696)

15000(0.7920936)

Answer:

Using Traditional allocation method

Allocation rate per unit

= Budgeted overhead

Budgeted direct labour hours

Brass

Overhead allocation rate

= $47,500

700 hours

= $67.86 per direct labour hour

Gold

= $47,500

1,200 hours

= $39.58 per direct labour hour

Using activity-based costing

Brass

Allocation rate for material cost pool

= $12,500

400

= $31.25 per material moved

Gold

Allocation rate for material cost pool

= $12,500

100

= $125 per material moved

Brass

Allocation rate for machine set-up pool

= $35,000

400

= $87.50

Gold

Allocation rate for machine set-up pool

= $35,000

600

= $58.33

Explanation:

Using traditional allocation method, the overheads for material cost pool and machine set-up pool will be added. The overhead allocation rate per unit is the division of total overhead by the direct labour hours for each product.

Using activity-based costing, the material cost pool overhead will be divided by the material moved for each product in order to obtain allocation rate for each product.

The allocation rate for machine set-up pool is obtained by dividing the machine set-up overhead by the number of machine set-up for each product.
