Answer:
66
Explanation:
When union workers vote to elect their representatives, the representative must be elected by a simple majority of the votes. A simple majority means 50% plus 1. In this case 50% of 130 votes = 65 votes plus 1 = 66 votes.
Exclusive representation is a legal status that allows the elected representative the legal right to represent the union workers in different situations, e.g. collective bargaining
Answer:
e. Minimize the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
Explanation:
A: Earnings per share is linked to the stockholders' only, therefore, it cannot achieve the target capital structure. It is a wrong statement.
B: Minimizing the cost of equity is related to the equity only, so, it is also a false statement.
C: Cost of debt is only related to liabilities. It cannot minimize the total target capital structure. Therefore, it cannot be an answer.
D: It is out of question because target capital structure cannot obtain the bond rating.
E: Since weighted average cost of capital is the combination of debt and equity capital's cost, it can be minimized with the firm's target capital structure.
Answer:
A) $50
Explanation:
The computation of the intrinsic value of the stock is shown below:
But before that the required rate of return is computed by using CAPM
Required rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - risk-free rate of return)
= 5% + 0.5 × (13% - 5%)
= 5% + 0.5 × 8%
= 5% + 4%
= 9%
Now the intrisinc value is
= Dividend ÷ (required rate of return - growth rate)
= $6 ÷ (9% - (-3%)
= $6 ÷ 12%
= $50
Hence, the intrinsic value of the stock is $50
Therefore the correct option is A.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The assertion is false that when LIFO is used with the periodic inventory system, cost of goods sold is assigned costs from the most recent purchases at the point of each sale, rather than from the most recent purchases for the period.
Under this method it is <u>at the end of the accounting year that the Inventory account is adjusted to equal the cost of the merchandise that is unsold.</u>
It is important to note that under LIFO periodic (not LIFO perpetual) <u>we wait until the entire year is over before assigning the costs. </u>Then we flow the year's last costs first, even if those goods arrived after the last sale of the year.
