Answer:

324

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What order quantity maximizes expected profit for Bakery A

First step is for the Salvage value

Salvage value = $2 × (1 - 80%)

Salvage value= $0.40

Second step is to calculate the Overage cost

Overage cost = $0.50 - $0.40

Overage cost = $0.10

Second step is to calculate the Underage cost

Underage cost = $2 - $0.50

Underage cost = $1.50

Third step is to calculate the The critical ratio

The critical ratio = 1.5/(1.5 + 0.4) = 0.79. z = 0.8

Now let calculate the Order quantity

Order quantity = 300 + (0.8× 30)

Order quantity= 324

Therefore the order quantity maximizes expected profit for Bakery A is 324

Answer:

The marginal cost is $200 that she needs to complete the task.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cassie has just spent​ $800 purchasing,​ cleaning, and reconstructing an antique quilt which she expects to sell for​ $1,500 once she is finished. After having spent​ $800, Cassie discovers that she would need some special period fabric that would cost her​ $200 in material and time to complete the task. ​ Alternatively, she can sell the quilt​ "as is" now for​ $900.

The $800 is a sunk cost. Now we need to determine the marginal cost. The marginal cost is $200 that she needs to complete the task.

Bert's Car Sales is a new firm that is still in a period of rapid growth. The company plans on retaining all of its earnings for
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The correct choice is C)

The most logical thing to do would be to calculate the value of the stock in 5 years time.

Explanation:

This speaks to ones understanding of dividend growth stock valuation models. These tools are used to establish a fair value for a stock by discounting the present value of its future dividends. A commonly used model is the constant growth dividend discount model.

The formula for the DDM, which assumes constant growth in dividends, is provided below.

P0 = D1/(r-g)

Where,

P0 = intrinsic value of stock

D1 = dividend payment one year from today

r = discount rate

g = growth rate

Identifying the correct answer entails establishing a timeline of the expected cash flows. We are given the following information:

t0 = $0

t1 = $0

t2 = $0

t3 = $0

t4 = $0

t5 = $0.20

t6 = $0.20 * 1.035

Given a rate of return, we could use the constant growth dividend discount model to establish the fair value of the firm at t5 (five years from today). Incidentally, to determine today's value, we'd discount it back another five years.

Based on the information above,  we are able to prove that the answer is '5'.

Cheers!
