Answer:
g = 0.05229 or 5.229% rounded off to 5.23%
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
Where,
- D1 is dividend in year 1 or the next dividend
- r is the required rate of return
Plugging in the available values for P0, D1 and r, we can calculate the value of g.
82 = 4.65 / (0.109 - g)
82 * (0.109 - g) = 4.65
8.938 - 82g = 4.65
8.938 - 4.65 = 82g
4.288 = 82g
g = 4.288 / 82
g = 0.05229 or 5.229% rounded off to 5.23%

Answer:
Entry to record adjustment:
COGS Dr $9.4m
Inventory Cr $9.4m
Explanation:
The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.
The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:
Entry:
COGS Dr $9.4m
Inventory Cr $9.4m
