Answer: $13 per unit

Explanation:

Thw following information can be gotten from the question:

Sales = 300000 × $15 = $4,500,000

Less: Expected profit = 12% × 5,000,000 = 600,000

Target cost = $3,900,000

Since there are 300000 units, the component’s target cost per unit will be:

= Target cost / Total units

= $3900000 / 300000

= $13 per unit

Driver Products recently paid its annual dividend of $2, and reported an ROE of 15%. The firm pays out 50% of its earnings as di
iragen [17]

Answer:

$29.70

Explanation:

Retention ratio = 1 - payout ratio

= ( 1  -0.5 )

= 0.5

Growth rate, g = ROE × Retention ratio

= 0.15 × 0.5

= 0.075

= 7.5%  

Required return = Risk - free rate + [ Beta × (Market rate- risk-free rate) ]

= 2.5% + 1.44 × (11% - 2.5%)

= 14.74%

Intrinsic value = \frac{\textup{D1}}{\textup{(Required return-Growth rate)
}}

=\frac{\textup{2}\times(1+0.075)}{\textup{(0.1474-0.075)
}}

= 29.69 ≈ $29.70

Neptune Inc. uses a standard cost system and has the following information for the most recent month, April: Actual direct labor
Naddik [55]

Answer:

$3,200 overapplied

Explanation:

The computation of the total underapplied or overapplied factory overhead is shown below:

Given that

Actual total factory overhead costs incurred is $45,400

Now Overhead applied to production

= (Total factory overhead application rate per standard DLH × Standard direct labor hours allowed)

= $2.70 × 18,000

= $48,600

As we can see that the overhead applied amount is more than the actual amount so the overhead cost would be overapplied i.e.  

 = $48,600 - $45,400

= $3,200 overapplied

scenarios as examples of elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic demand. When Ruko, a device used to stream movies at home, increase
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Elastic demand

Unit elastic demand

Inelastic demand

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price.

Denand is elastic if when price is increased, the quantity demanded changes more than the increase in price. Quanitity demanded is more sensitive to changes in price.

If price is increased, the quantity demanded falls and as a result the total revenue earned by sellers falls.

The elasticity of demand is usually greater than 1 when demand is elastic.

Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional change on quantity demanded. The coefficient of elasticity is equal to one.

If price is increased, the quantity demanded changes by the same proportion so there's no change in total revenue of sellers.

Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

Coefficient of elasticity is usually less than one.

If price is increased, there is little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result the revenue earned by sellers increase.

An individual consumes products X and Y and spends $36 per time period. The prices of the two goods are $3 per unit for X and $2
vekshin1

Answer:

a) 3X + 2Y = 36

b) X = 6 , Y = 9

c) 27

Explanation:

Individual consumes : X and Y

Spends : $36 per time period

unit cost : $3 per unit for X

                 $2 per unit for Y

utility function : U( X, Y ) = .5XY

<u>A) Budget equation mathematically</u>

X* Px + Y* Py = M

3X + 2Y = 36

Px and Py = unit cost for X and Y

M = Total spent ( revenue )

<u>b) Values of X and Y that will maximize utility </u>

Maximum utility ( MRS )  = Px / Py ,

MRS = MUx / MUy

 = Y/X  = 3/2

∴ 2Y = 3X

From BC : 6X = 36 ( X = 6 plug into mathematically equation above )

∴ X = 6 , hence Y = 9

<u>c) Total utility generated per unit of time </u>

U( X,Y ) = .5XY

            = 0.5 * 6 * 9 = 27
