Andy, a junior in high school, is considering his options for employment following graduation. His uncle, a master electrician,

has suggested that Andy consider an apprenticeship with his company, in part because the occupation is considered a “bright outlook” job and it also is becoming recognized as a “green” industry. Andy’s friend, on the other hand, thinks that Andy should go to work with him at his father’s contracting business as a plaster tender. Andy quickly realizes that the choice he makes at graduation will have long-term effects on his opportunities for career advancement and lifelong income potential. Andy wants to consider many of the factors affecting this important decision, including the education and training needed to begin work, apprenticeship opportunities, licensure requirements, and wages.
Assume the role of Andy’s grandfather who spent his entire career in the building trades and, in an essay of at least 150-words, compare several of the advantages and limitations associated with each career path.

laila [671]

Answer:

a. $534,000

b. $271,550

Explanation:

a. Compute operating income at 121,000 units

Using this formula

Operating Income = (Price per unit - Variable cost per unit)*Units - Fixed costs

Let plug in the formula

Operating Income = ($10.00 - $5.00)*121,000 - $71,000

Operating Income = ($5.00)*121,000 - $71,000

Operating Income =$605,000-$71,000

Operating Income = $534,000

Therefore operating income at 121,000 units is $534,000

b. Compute operating income at 221,000 units

Using this formula

Operating Income = (Price per unit - Variable cost per unit)*Units - Fixed costs

Let plug in the formula

Operating Income = ($6.80 - $5.25)*221,000 - $71,000

Operating Income = $1.55*221,000-$71,000

Operating Income = $342,550-$71,000

Operating Income = $271,550

Therefore operating income at 121,000 units at 221,000 units is $271,550

Avocado Incorporated just paid a dividend of $3. An analyst expects this dividend to grow at a rate of 12% for the next 3 years.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The most you should pay for this stock is 126.89

Explanation:

The dividend in years 1 – 3 will grow at 12% and then at 5% forever.  

We had to get the PV for the dividends in years 1-3 (year 3 also includes the estimated future value of the stock).

We used our calculators to find the PV of each year at the 8% discount rate.  Finally we will add them all together to get the final answer.

We find the future dividends using g =12%

Dividend in year 0 --->

Dividend in year 1 ---> 3.36

Dividend in year 2 ---> 3.76

Dividend in year 3 ---> 4.21

Dividend in year 4 ---> 4.43

Now we will calculate the present value of the future dividends using r = 8%

Stock Value assuming constant growth rate  = 147.52 --(a)

PV in year 1 ---> 3.11

PV in year 2 ---> 3.23

PV in year 3 ---> 120.45  --(discounting (a))

= 120.45 + 3.23 + 3.11

= 126.89
