Answer:
a. Leslie, who is independent and self-confident. She doesn’t need people to tell her what to do.
b. Malcolm, who loves to play. His last boss says that Malcolm was the "chief kid" in his last office.
c. Frankie, who has been in the toy business for 10 years and who knows what he’s doing, but who always likes testing a new idea.
Explanation:
In this scenario the CEO of a start-up toy manufacturer wants to create at least 10 wildly different toys in the next three years.
He will primarily need people that are creative and are inclined to work with new ideas.
The wrong choice will be someone who follows the rules and is stable. Such a staff will not contribute new ideas that will move the company to make profits.
Leslie is confident and does not need to be told what to do, so she will take initiative to do new things.
Malcolm loves to play and this will boost creative ideas.
Frankie likes testing new ideas and will be comfortable working creatively.
Answer:
Explanation:
Total cost of repairs:
Material = 3,500
Material loading charge = 3,500 * 65% = 2,275
Labor (45hrs* $47per hr) = 2,115
Thus, total cost =(3500 + 2275 + 2115) = $7,890

Advertisements can be used to excite request for a certain category or industry, or for a definite brand, item, or firm.

Answer: 1 year and 6 months
Explanation:
The cash flows are as follows,
Year 0 = ($2,500)
Year 1 = $1,500
Year 2 = $1,500
Year 3 = $1,500
Payback period is the time it will take to break even the intial investment (In this question the initial investment is $2,500)
The sum of the cashflows of year1 and year2 is equal to $3,000
which means that the payback period is somewhere bbetween year 1 and year2
1500/3000 = 0.5 year or 6 months
the total payback period is 1 year and 6 months
Answer:
Share price : $ 56.23
Explanation:
CAPM
risk free = 0.05
market rate = 0.11
premium market = (market rate - risk free) 0.06
beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.64
Ke 0.14840
Now, we solve for the present value of the future dividends:
year dividend* present value**
1 2.91 2.53
2 3.31 2.51
3 3.78 2.49
4 4.31 2.48
4 80.38 46.22
TOTAL 56.23
*Dividends will be calculate as the previous year dividends tiems the grow rate
during the first four year is 14%
then, we calcualte the present value of all the future dividends growing at 9% using the dividend grow model:

(4.31 x 1.09) / (0.1484 - 0.09) = 80.38
Then we discount eahc using the present value of a lump sum:
We discount using the CAPM COst of Capital of 14.84%
last we add them all to get the share price: $ 56.23
