Answer:

e. 10.77 percent

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of preferred stock is shown below:

Cost of preferred stock = Annual dividend paid ÷ Price of preferred stock per share

= 0.07 × $100  ÷ $65

= 10.77%

Simply we divide the annual dividend after considering the par value per share by the price of preferred stock per share so that the correct cost of preferred stock can be computed

kondaur [170]

Answer:  a)The decision tree is attached as a document to this question.

b)$140000

Here is the complete question:

. A manager is trying to decide whether to buy one machine or two. If only one is purchased and demand proves to be excessive, the second machine can be purchased later. Some sales will be lost, however, because the lead time for purchasing this type of machine is 6 months. In addition, the cost per machine will be lower if both are purchased at the same time. The probability of low demand is estimated to be 0.20. The after-tax net present value of the benefits from purchasing the two machines together is $90,000 if demand is low and $180,000 if demand is high.

If one machine is purchased and demand is low, the net present value is $120,000. If demand is high, the manager has three options. Doing nothing has a net present value of $120,000; subcontracting, $160,000; and buying the second machines, $140,000.

a. Draw the decision tree for this problem.

b. Use the decision tree to determine how many machines the company should buy initially and give the expected payoff for this alternative.

Explanation:

Concepts and reason

The expected value of perfect information (EVPI)= EPPI - EP

(EPPI) =expected payoff with perfect information

(EP)= maximum expected payoff  computed under uncertainty.

Fundamentals

The expected payoff = P₁X₁ + P₂X₂ +....PnXn,

The formula for the expected payoff is, E(X) = ΣxΡ(x)

Suppose you have a set of corresponding probabilities for playing your pure strategies = Pn

where the probabilities must all be greater than or equal to zero and they all sum to one.

b) the values at node 4 = $120000, $140000 and $160000

EV =maximum(node4)

=max($120000, $140000 , $160000)

=$140000

expected payoff at node 4 = $140000

Dixie is a product of the Digby company. Digby's sales forecast for Dixie is 506 units. Digby wants to have an extra 10% of unit
n200080 [17]

Answer:

556.6 or 557 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Digby's sales forecast for Dixie = 506 units

Digby wants to have an extra units on hand above and beyond their forecast = 10%

Production units = Sales × (1 + Reserve Percentage)

                             = 506 × (1 + 10%)

                            = 506 × 110%

                             = 556.6 or 557 units

Therefore, the Dixie's will produce 557 units in order to have a 10% reserve of units available for sale.

Which of the following is not correct? Select one: a. Taxes levied on sellers and taxes levied on buyers are not equivalent. b.
liq [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Taxes levied on either buyers or sellers are equivalent. In both cases, the tax creates a wedge. This wedge is the difference between the price that the buyers have to pay and the price that the sellers receive.  

The price that the buyers have to pay increases while the price that the sellers receive decreases. But this tax wedge does not depend on whom the tax is levied, it depends on the elasticity of demand and supply. So whether the tax is levied on buyers or sellers, the tax wedge will remain the same.

The tax burden will be shared between both buyers and sellers. So it is incorrect to say that the taxes levied on sellers and taxes levied on buyers are not equivalent.
