Answer:

7.59%

Explanation:

the dividend is a perpetuality, so the formula for determining the price is :

Price = dividend / required rate of return

$39.50 = $3 / required rate of return

required rate of return = $3 / $39.50 = 0.0759 = 7.59%

A manager receives a forecast for next year. Demand is projected to be 590 units for the first half of the year and 940 units fo
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

74 units; 93 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Holding cost, H = $2 per unit

Carrying cost, O = $55

Demand in first half, D1 = 590 units

                                       = 590 ÷ 6

                                       = 98.33 per month

Demand in second half, D2 = 940 units

                                       = 940 ÷ 6

                                       = 156.67 per month

For D1; EOQ:

EOQ=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times O}{H} }

EOQ=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 98.33\times 55}{2} }

               = 73.54 or 74 units

For D2; EOQ:

EOQ=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times O}{H} }

EOQ=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 156.67\times 55}{2} }

               = 92.82 or 93 units

Hence, the appropriate order size will be 74 units and 93 units.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer: All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

The Allowance for Doubtful Account is a contra account because it reduces the value of the Accounts Receivable Account and does so in order to account for the possibility that some customers will not pay the amounts they owe.

It is credited when Bad debts are estimated and recorded; that way this reduction in Accounts receivable does not have to go out of the Accounts Receivable account directly.This will ensure that the Accounts Receivable Account is not volatile as it attempts to keep up with all the bad debts incurred.

Ignoring income taxes, the annual net income amount used to calculate the accounting rate of return is:_____.
Darina [25.2K]

Ignoring income taxes, the annual net income amount used to calculate the Accounting Rate of Return is Average Annual Profit / Average Investment.

The Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) is the average net income which an asset is expected to generate divided by its average capital cost, and thus it is expressed as an annual percentage.

The ARR's formula is used to make capital budgeting decisions. It is used in situations where companies are deciding on whether or not to invest in an asset based on its expected future net earnings.

Hence, the Accounting Rate of Return is calculated by Average Annual Profit / Average Investment.

A buyer will receive a utilities bill for an estimated $400 at the end of the month. At closing, the seller has used an estimate
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Dr Seller Account $100

Cr Buyer Account      $100

Explanation:

The property sold on 15th of the month by Mr. A to Mr. B and the utility bill received later of this month would be split between Mr. A and Mr. B. The basis for the split of the utility bills would be the share that Mr. A utilized the facilities and in this scenario, it is $100. Hence the buyer Mr. B has receivable of $100 and the seller Mr. A has a liability payable of $100 amount.

Hence the buyer will debit the bill by $100 receivable and the Seller will debit the bill owed to buyer by $100.
