Answer:
The cost of internal equity is 11.18%
Explanation:
The constant growth model of DDM can be used to calculate the price of a stock if the growth rate in the dividend is expected to remain constant. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / r - g
We already know the P0, the D0 and the g. We can plug in these values in the formula to calculate r which is the cost of equity capital.
32 = 1.25 * (1+ 0.07) / (r - 0.07)
32 * (r - 0.07) = 1.3375
32r - 2.24 = 1.3375
32r = 1.3375 + 2.24
r = 3.5775 / 32
r = 0.11179 or 11.179%

The company prepares 2,000 purchase orders, works 50,000 mixing hours, and performs 1,500 tests per year in producing 200,000 drums of Goo and 600,000 drums of Slime. The following data are available: Department Expected use of Driver Cost Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $1,200,000 Mixing 50,000 1,500,000 Testing 1,500 1,350,000 Production information for Goo is as follows: Department Expected use of Driver Ordering and Receiving 400 Mixing 20,000 Testing 500 Compute the amount of overhead assigned to Goo. $2,760,000.
Answer:
$1,290,000
Explanation:
Goo:
Ordering and Receiving = 400 / 2,000 = 20%
Mixing = 20,000 / 50,000 = 40%
Testing = 500 / 1,500 = 33.33%
allocated overhead costs:
Ordering and Receiving = 20% x $1,200,000 = $240,000
Mixing = 40% x $1,500,000 = $600,000
Testing = 33.33% x $1,350,000 = $450,000
total allocated overhead costs = $1,290,000

Which of the following should Charlie consider while choosing his strategy?A) He must be aware of the fact that despite globalization and the emergence of the Internet, firm geographic location has actually maintained its importance.B) He should rely on his firm's business-level strategy as a clue to possible strategies pursued globally.C) He should remember that he has only one framework at his disposal to make global strategy decisions.D) He must remember that higher levels of control and a lower likelihood of any loss in reputation go along with less investment-intensive foreign entry modes.
Answer: A) He must be aware of the fact that despite globalization and the emergence of the Internet, firm geographic location has actually maintained its importance.
Explanation:
Charlie must consider that despite the fact that the internet and technology have made globalization more accessible, the location of a business remains very important hence the old saying "its all about location location location".
The firm's geographical location has an effect on stakeholders in the company such as customers, employees and suppliers. For the customers, even if the business was to rely on the internet and delivering goods, the location needs to be convenient enough to ship goods from.
The Suppliers as well need to be able to send the goods ordered for in a timely fashion and an improper location can hamper that. Even employees need a place to work in that is conducive for them in terms of logistics and a safe working environment. Charlie should definitely not forget about the importance of location.
The Raven Co. has just gone public. Under a firm commitment agreement, Raven received $15.90 for each of the 25 million shares sold. The initial offering price was $17.50 per share, and the stock rose to $19.40 per share in the first few minutes of trading. Raven paid $860,000 in direct legal and other costs and $330,000 in indirect costs.What was the flotation cost as a percentage of funds raised?
Answer:
22.38%
Explanation:
Raven corporation has just gone public
They received $15.90 for each 25 million shares that was sold
The first step is to calculate the net amount raised
Net amount that was raised= 15.90×25,000,000 = 397,500,000
397,500,000-860,000-330,000
= 396,310,000
Underwriter spread= 17.50-15.90
= 1.6 per shares
Total underwriter spread= per share spread× number of shares that were offered
= 1.6×25,000,000
= 40,000,000
Total direct costs= 40,000,000+860,000
=40,860,000
Indirect flotation cost= indirect cost+price appreciation
= 330,000+(19.40-17.50)×25,000,000
= 330,000+1.9×25,000,000
=330,000+47,500,000
= 47,830,000
Total flotation cost= 47,830,000+40,860,000
= 88,690,000
Therefore, the flotation cost as a percentage of funds raised can be calculated as follows
= 88,690,000/396,310,000 × 100
= 0.2238×100
= 22.38%
Hence the flotation costs as a percentage of funds raised is 22.38%

Explanation:
Which of the following is not a reason for a direct materials quantity variance? a.purchasing of inferior raw materials
Answer: d. increased material cost per unit
Explanation:
Direct materials quantity variance has to do with the difference between the budgeted quantity of materials and the actual quantity of materials used. It speaks to only the quantity used and nothing else.
An increased cost of the material is not relevant to the quantity of material used because whilst for instance it measures if there was a price change in the material, the materials quantity variance checks if there has been a change in quantity.

Stephenson Co.'s 15-year bond with a face value of $1,000 currently sells for $850. Which of the following statements is correct?
A. The bond's coupon rate exceeds its current yield.
B. The bond's yield to maturity is greater than its coupon rate.
C. If the yield to maturity stays constant until the bond matures, the bond's price will remain at $850.
D. The bonds current yield exceeds its yield to maturity.
Answer:
The bond's yield to maturity is greater than its coupon rate.
Explanation:
At a discount, the price of the bond is less than its face value, from bond theory principles, this is likely to happen when YTM is more than the coupon rate of the bond. Due to this the present value of the coupons and their face value are going to be lower than 1000 since YTM is greater.
The coupon rate is given as annual interest divided by face value
While
The yield is interest/ current price.
The answer to the question is therefore
The bond's yield to maturity is greater than its coupon rate.

Answer: call; $180,000
Explanation:
Delta Importers has a pure discount loan with a face value of $180,000 due in one year. The assets of the firm are currently worth $215,000. The shareholders in this firm basically own a call option on the assets of the firm with a strike price of $180,000.
The equity of the firm is owned by the shareholders and it is identical to when a call option is being held and the strike price will be equal to the face value of $180,000.
The wage rate for all units of labor is $10/hr. You have spent $160,000 on developing a production process (Process X) that will allow you to produce 8 units for every unit of labor. If you use this production process, the accounting profits will cover the initial investment within 6 months. If you use your normal production process (not Process X), you can produce 10 units for every unit of labor. Both processes are fully scalable, so the marginal product of labor is fixed for any reasonable amount of labor you could hire. Based on this information, what should you do?
Answer:
The normal production process should be followed.
Explanation:
The normal process should be used because when it uses the process “X” then the marginal productivity of labor (MPL) is 8 units and the wage of labor is $10 per hour. Secondly, when it uses a normal production process then the marginal productivity of labor is 10 units and the wage rate is the same that is $10 per hour. Therefore, the normal production process is giving the greater marginal productivity of labor, accordingly this process should be followed.
Backus Inc. makes and sells many consumer products. The firm’s average contribution margin ratio is 35%. Management is considering adding a new product that will require an additional $15,000 per month of fixed expenses and will have variable expenses of $7.80 per unit.
Required:
A. Calculate the selling price that will be required for the new product if it is to have a contribution margin ratio equal to 35%.
B. Calculate the number of units of the new product that would have to be sold if the new product is to increase the firm's monthly operating income by $6,000.
Answer:
a) $12 per unit
b) $2,693 units
Explanation:
contribution margin ratio formula = contribution margin / total revenue
contribution margin = total revenue - variable costs
0.35 = (revenue - 7.80) / revenue
0.35revenue = revenue - 7.80
7.80 = 0.65revenue
revenue = 7.80/.65
revenue = 12
number of units required to increase revenue by $6,000:
= (fixed costs + desired profits) / contribution margin
= ($15,000 + $6,000) / $7.80 = $21,000 / $7.80 = 2,692.31 ≈ we must round up to $2,693 units

(Round interim calculations to the nearest cent.) The direct labor rate variance is a.$21,730.60 favorable b.$6,199.13 unfavorable c.$21,730.60 unfavorable d.$6,199.13 favorable
Answer:
Direct labor rate variance= $6,199.13 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Labor:
Standard hourly labor rate $14.92 per hour
Actual labor hours worked 4,661
Actual total labor costs $75,741
To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 75,741/4,661= $16.25
Direct labor rate variance= (14.92 - 16.25)*4,661
Direct labor rate variance= $6,199.13 unfavorable

The complete question is:
Carlos wants to purchase a new computer and go to the Caribbean for spring break. The computer is priced at $1,299, and the vacation is priced at $750. He has only $1,537 in his checking account, so he cannot afford to purchase both. After much thought, Brian buys the computer and writes a check for $1,299.
Identify what role money plays in each of the following parts of the story.
Carlos can easily determine that the price of the computer is more than the price of the vacation.
Carlos has $1,537 in his checking account.
Carlos writes a check for $1,299.
Answer:
Carlos can easily determine that the price of the computer is more than the price of the vacation.= Unit of Account
Carlos has $1,537 in his checking account.= Store of value
Carlos writes a check for $1,299.= Medium of Exchange
Explanation:
In this scenario the different functions of money are exhibited. The 3 functions of money are as unit of account, store of value and medium of exchange.
When Carlos determines that the price of the computer is larger than that of price of a vacation money functions as a unit of account. The amount for a computer is $1,299 which is larger than the cost of a vacation ($750)
The money in his account is a store of value from which he can make pitches in the present or in the future.
When he writes the check for the computer, he is exchanging money for the computer. Money acts as a medium of exchange

Retires $20,000 (000) in long-term debtb. Liquidates the entire inventoryc. Sells $5,000 (000) of their Long-term assetsd. Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000)
Answer: Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000)
Explanation:
Out of the 4 options presented, 2 involves cash coming into the company which are; Sells $5,000 (000) of their Long-term assets and Liquidates the entire inventory. As these 2 bring cash into the company, they will not make Baldwin need an emergency loan.
The other 2 however, take money from the company being; Retires $20,000 (000) in long-term debt and Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000). Retirement of long-term debt will have been in the budget for a long time so there would be no need for emergency funding.
The Purchase of the assets on the other hand has a less chance of being budgeted for than the long term debt retirement and being such a significant outflow, could expose Baldwin to the risk of needing to seek emergency loans.

The company is now in the process of preparing a production budget for the second quarter. Past experience has shown that end-of-month inventory levels must equal 15% of the following month’s sales. The inventory at the end of March was 10,500 units.
Required:
Prepare a production budget for the second quarter; in your budget, show the number of units to be produced each month and for the quarter in total.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales in Units
April 70,000
May 85,000
June 110,000
July 90,000
Desired ending inventory= 15% of the following month’s sales.
The inventory at the end of March was 10,500 units.
To calculate the production required for each month, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
April:
Sales= 70,000
Desired ending inventory= 85,000*0.15= 12,750
Beginning inventory= (10,500)
Total production= 72,250
May:
Sales= 85,000
Desired ending inventory= 110,000*0.15= 16,500
Beginning inventory= (12,750)
Total production= 88,750
June:
Sales= 110,000
Desired ending inventory= 90,000*0.15= 13,500
Beginning inventory= (16,500)
Total production= 107,000
Total quarter= 268,000
A small manufacturer that makes clothespins and other household products buys new injection molding equipment for a cost of $500,000. This will allow the manufacturer to make more clothespins in the same amount of time with an estimated increase in sales of %. If the manufacturer currently makes tons of clothespins per year, which sell at per ton, what will be the increase in revenue next year from the new equipment?
Answer:
$337,500
Explanation:
the questions was missing some numbers. I looked for similar questions and found:
increase in sales = 25%current annual production in tons = 75sales price per ton = $18,000increase in total sales = 75 tons x 25% = 18.75 tons
increase in revenue = 18.75 tons x $18,000 = $337,500
Since the question only asks for the increase in revenue, we do not have to calculate anything else.
A firm hires labor in a perfectly competitive labor market. Its current profit-maximizing hourly output is 100 units, which the firm sells at a price of $5 per unit. The Marginal Physical product (MPP) of the last unit of labor employed is 5 units per hour. The firm pays each worker an hourly wage of $15. a)What Marginal Revenue (MR) does the firm earn from sale of the output produced by the last worker employed? b)Does this firm sell its output in a perfectly competitive market?
Answer:
A.Marginal Revenue $3
B. No
Explanation:
A.Calculation for the Marginal Revenue (MR) that the firm earn from sale of the output produced by the last worker employed
Based on the information given we were told that the Marginal Physical product of the last unit of labor was 5 units per hour in which the firm pays each worker an hourly wage of $15. Now let calculate the Marginal Revenue using this formula
Marginal Revenue = Employees hourly wages/Marginal Physical product unit of labor
Where,
Employees hourly wages=$15
Marginal Physical product unit of labor =5 units per hour
Let plug in the formula
Marginal Revenue =$15/5
Marginal Revenue =$3
B. No reason been that the current profit-maximizing hourly output was 100 units in which we were told that the firm sells at a price of $5 per unit. While the Marginal Revenue gotten in (A) above was $3 which is lesser or lower than $5 per unit which simply means that the firm does NOT sell its output in a well perfectly competitive market .

Answer: Immediately seek injunctive relief.
Explanation:
An injunctive relief is an order by the court stopping an action from taking place. From the question, we are told that Sam has contracted with Dave to buy Dave's racing bike, with payment and delivery of the bicycle to be made 10 days after the contract was made.
We are further told that three days later Sam hears that Dave is going to sell the bike to Gene in three days at a higher price. If Sam really wants the bike, he should seek injunctive relief. By doing so, the court will stop Dave from selling the bike to Gene.
The break-even point is a.the maximum possible operating loss. b.where the total sales line intersects the total costs line on a cost-volume-profit chart. c.the total fixed costs. d.the maximum possible operating income.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
To a layman, break-even point is the point where an entity neither make profit nor loss. It is the point where total revenue equals total cost(where the total sales line intersects the total costs line on a cost-volume-profit chart).
Points greater or above this intersection or point mean the firm is making profit and points lesser or below this intersection or point mean the firm is making loss.

Projects Returns: Expected Value Standard Deviation
A $ 310,000 $ 173,000
B 676,000 413,000
C 163,000 120,000
D 134,000 101,000
a-1. Compute the coefficients of variation. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
a-2. Which of the following four projects should Mountain Ski Corp.
A. Project B
B. Project A
C. Project C
D. Project D
Answer:
B. Project A
Explanation:
Coefficient of variation=standard deviation/expected return value
Project A:
Coefficient of variation=$173,000/$310,000= 0.558
Project B:
Coefficient of variation=$413,000/$676,000= 0.611
Project C:
Coefficient of variation=$120,000/$163,000=0.736
Project D:
Coefficient of variation=$101,000/$134,000=0.754
The Project A has the lowest rate of risk per unit of return, hence, it is the preferred choice of investment
Terry Dactel is considering the purchase of an asset having the following cash flows (in 000's):CF Prob.5 20%12 30%18 30%20 20%What is the asset’s standard deviation (in 000's)?
Answer: b. $5.4
Explanation:
First calculate the Expected return;
Expected cashflow = ∑ (Probability of cashflow * cashflow)
Expected cashflow = (5 * 0.2) + (12*0.3) + (18*0.3) +(20*0.2)
=$14
Standard deviation = √∑ [Probability * (CF - Expected CF)^2]
Standard deviation= √[(0.2*(5 - 14)^2) + (0.3*(12-14)^2) + (0.3*(18-14)^2) + (0.2*(20-14)^2)
Standard deviation = $5.4

In monopolistic competition, short-run positive economic profits of firms in the market will cause the market demand to expand.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopoly has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.
There are low barriers to entry r exit of firms. So, if a firm is earning economic profit in the short run, in the long run, more firms would enter into the industry.
examples of monopolistic competition are restaurants
