Answer:
$1.35 per share
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the weighted shares outstanding.
The earnings per share can be computed as follows:
Weighted shares outstanding = 1,702,000 shares
Preferred stock dividend = 48,000 * $100 * 8% = $384,000
Net income = $2,680,000
Net income after preferred stock dividend = $2,680,000 - $384,000 = $2,296,000
Earnings per share = Net income after preferred stock dividend / Weighted shares outstanding = $2,296,000 / 1,702,000 = $1.35 per share

Answer:
93 units
Explanation:
Annual demand for an item = 11,000 units
cost per unit = $250
holding rate = 10%
Order cost = $14.00 per order
No. of days in a year = 260
Lead-time = 2 days


= 42.3 units
For a service level of 97%, the value of z is 1.881
Therefore,
Reorder point:
= Average daily demand × Lead time + Standard deviation of the daily demand × no. of standard deviation corresponding to service level probability × 
= (42.3 × 2) + (3 × 1.88 ×
)
= 92.57
= 93 units
Answer:
12.64%
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 4% + 0.87 × 7.4%
= 4% + 6.438%
= 10.438%
The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium and the same is applied.
Now the required rate of return would be
= 10.438% + 2.2%
= 12.64%
