A company will pay a $2 per share dividend in 1 year. The dividend in 2 years will be $4 per share, and it is expected that dividends will grow at 5% per year thereafter. The expected rate of return on the stock is 12%.

Required:
a. What is the current price of the stock?
b. What is the expected price of the stock in a year?
c. Show that the expected return, 12%, equals dividend yield plus capital appreciation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

current price P = $ 52.81

The expected price of the stock after one year = $57.16

The Total expected return for any investor after one year = 12%

Explanation:

Given that:

Dividend paid in 1 year = $2/ share

Dividend paid in 2 years = $4/share

Expect growth rate of the dividends g = 5% = 0.05

Expected rate of return on the stock r =12%  = 0.12

Required:

a. What is the current price of the stock?

To calculate the  current price of the stock ; we need to first determine the terminal value of the stock which can be done by using the formula:

[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{Dividend \ for \ the \ second \ year*(1+g)}{r-g}[/tex]

[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4*(1+0.05)}{0.12-0.05}[/tex]

[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4*(1.05)}{0.07}[/tex]

[tex]Terminal \ Value = \dfrac{4.2}{0.07}[/tex]

Terminal value = $60

Now; the   current price of the stock is calculate as follows:

[tex]current \ price \ P = \dfrac{\$ 2}{(1+0.12)^1} + \dfrac{\$ 4 }{(1+0.12)^2} + \dfrac{\$ 60}{(1+0.12)^2}[/tex]

[tex]current \ price \ P = \dfrac{\$ 2}{1.12} + \dfrac{\$ 4 }{1.2544} + \dfrac{\$ 60}{1.2544}[/tex]

current price P  = $1.79 + $3.19 + $47.83

current price P = $ 52.81

b) What is the expected price of the stock in a year?

The expected price of the stock after one year = [tex]\dfrac{\$ 4}{(1+0.12)^1}+ \dfrac{\$60}{(1+0.12)^1}[/tex]

The expected price of the stock after one year = $3.58 + $53.58

The expected price of the stock after one year  = $57.16

c. Show that the expected return, 12%, equals dividend yield plus capital appreciation.

We understand now that the current price of  the sock = $52.81

and the expected price of the stock after one year  = $57.16  ; so any investor who purchased the stock at the current price will receive a dividend of $2 after one year.

Hence;

The Total expected return for any investor after one year =( (price after one year - current price ) + Dividend received) /current price

The Total expected return for any investor after one year =( ($57.16 - $52.81)+ $2 )/$52.81

The Total expected return for any investor after one year = ($4.35+$2)/$52.81

The Total expected return for any investor after one year =  0.12

The Total expected return for any investor after one year = 12%

Review the "Types of Distribution Channels" study material. Explain why the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy. Provide an example of a well-known company's distribution channels and defend their choices. In replies to peers, agree or disagree with their assessment and justify your response.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not provide a specific text, we can say that the selection of distribution channels is essential to a successful marketing strategy because that is how companies deliver their products to consumers. This is of key importance due to the fact that there are numerous competitors selling the same or similar products so the company has to be precise and effective in delivering the product to match the client's expectations.

One good example of a successful company would be Underarmour. This Maryland company sells its products through direct distribution, uses intermediaries and brokers, has open many outlets where the company sells direct to the consumer, and also sells products through e-commerce portals. You can find Underarmour apparel in big chain stores, fashion stores, the internet, and sports stores.

Depreciation associated with a project will: Answer A. cause incremental cash flows to increase B. only affect the fixed asset account as depreciation is a sunk cost C. have no effect on incremental cash flows D. cause incremental operating cash flows to decrease

Answers

Answer: A. cause incremental cash flows to increase

Explanation:

Incremental Cashflow (ICF) is the added cash that a company gets from embarking on a project which means that this Cashflow must be independent of expenses. If ICF is positive then the company will see it's Cashflow increase if they accept the project because it will contribute to their cash flow.

ICF is calculated from the Net Income of the project but seeing as Depreciation is a non-cash expense that is removed from the Income Statement. In calculating ICF it is added back as ICF deals with actual cash and Depreciation did not cost any actual cash.

More Depreciation therefore means an increase in Incremental Cash flow when it is being calculated from Net Income.

Do not round interim calculations.

Answers

Answer:

Total cost under flexible budgeting is $390,850

Explanation:

Calculation of Standard direct labor Cost

Standard Direct labor Cost=Budgeted Labor cost/Budgeted hour of Production

=$136,000 / 8,000

=$17 per hour

Calculation of Standard material Cost

Standard material Cost = Budgeted material Cost /Budgeted hour of Production

=$150,000 / 8,000

=$18.75 per hour

Calculation of Total cost under flexible budgeting

Direct Material Cost = 10,600 * $18.75 =   $198,750

Direct Labour Cost=  10,600 * 17 =             $180,200

Steven has a typed copy of a contract, which he would like to have Thomas sign. Thomas, who needs glasses to read typing, doesn't want to sign until he has read the document, but Steven convinces Thomas to sign it anyway, because it is a "standard" contract for this type of situation. Is the contract which Thomas signed binding upon him?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents

Explanation:

Based on the information provided regarding the scenario at hand it can be said that Yes, this contract is binding upon Thomas because he was negligent in not ascertaining its contents. Each individual is responsible for completely reading and fully understanding the contents of the contract before they sign. Once an individual signs the contract it means that they fully agree with all that is specified in the contract and are held liable. Thomas should have waited until he had his glasses and read the contract before signing, regardless of what Steven had to say.

Assume the profit margin is projected to increase to 9 percent while the dividend payout ratio remains constant. If sales increase by 12 percent, what is the projected total retained earnings (hint: add the additional RE onto the current RE)? Currently, the firm’s sales =$4,700, net income is $420, total assets=7890, dividends=125, A/P =790, LTD= 3130, and common stock=2780, and retained earnings =1190.

Answers

Answer:

The projected retained earnings are $1538.76

Explanation:

Profit margin=net income/sales

profit margin is 9%

sales growth rate is 12%

9%=net income/($4,700*(1+12%))

9%=net income/5264

9%*5264=net income

net income=$473.76

Projected total retained earnings=$1190+$473.76-$125=$1538.76

They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt

Answers

Answer:

$5,412,000

Explanation:

Given:

Long-term debt (bonds, at par):$10,000,000

Preferred stock :2,000,000

Common stock ($10 par): 10,000,000

Retained earnings: 4,000,000

Total debt and equity :$26,000,000

Coupon rate = 4%(semi annually)

Par value = $1000

YTM = 12%

Required:

Find the current market value of the firm's debt.

Find the bond price:

Bond price [tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+i)^n})}{i}) + (\frac{m}{(1+i)^n}) [/tex]

[tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^2^0})}{0.06}) + (\frac{1000}{(1+0.06)^2^0}) [/tex]

[tex] = 541.20 [/tex]

Bond price = $541.20

Find number of bonds:

Number of bonds [tex] = \frac{10,000,000}{1,000} = 10,000[/tex]

Now, to find the current market value of the firm's debt, use:

Current market value of debt = number of bonds × bond price

= 10,000 × 541.20

= $5,412,000

Current market value of the firm's debt = $5,412,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In May direct labor was 40% of conversion cost. The manufacturing overhead for the month was $120,600.

The conversion costs are the sum of direct labor and manufacturing overhead.

Conversion costs= 120,600/0.6= 201,000

direct labor= 210,000*0.4= 80,400

If the marginal cost of producing the fifth unit of output is higher than the marginal cost of producing the fourth unit of output, then at five units of output, average total cost must be rising.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: a. True

Explanation:

Marginal Cost as well known is the cost of producing an extra unit of a good. Average Cost on the other hand is the cost of producing all the goods divided by the number of units that are produced.

It therefore stands to reason that if goods are getting more expensive to produce, the Average Cost will rise.

For example, take 2 scenarios.

Scenario 1.

Cost of producing units 1 to 5 is $2 each.

Average Cost = (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2) / 5

= 10/5

Average Cost = $2

Scenario 2

Cost of Producing Units 1 to 5 are;

Unit 1 - $2

Unit 2 - $2

Unit 3 - $2

Unit 4 - $2

Unit 5 - $4

Average cost at unit 5 = (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 4)/5

= 12/5

= $2.40

Average Cost has increased by $0.40

In the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because: a. of government regulations. b. of collusion. c. firms are free to enter and exit the market. d. firms produce a differentiated product.

Answers

Answer:

c. firms are free to enter and exit the market.

Explanation:

A monopolistically competitive market is a market in which there are a lot of organizations that sell products that are similar and it tends to be easy to enter and leave the industry. Because it is easy for a company to enter the market and there is a lot of competition, in the long run the economic profit is zero. According to this, the answer is that in the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because firms are free to enter and exit the market.

The other options are not right because a monopolistically competitive market has zero profits because of its low entry barriers and amount of competitors not because of government regulations or an illegal agreement between organizations to control competition. Also, in a monopolistically competitive market the products are similar.

This first entry would increase the wages expense and increase the liability account in the adjusted trial balance. Both debit and credit side would be increased by an equal amount.

b) This would decrease the Supplies account and increase the supplies expense in the unadjusted account. As both are on the debit side there would be no effect in the debit total.

b. intentional harm caused by the insured.

Explanation:

Liability insurance is a means to provide the insured party with some protection against claims resulting from injuries and damage to people or property, covering both legal costs and any payouts for which the insured party would be responsible if found legally liable.

Note that there are two types of liability coverage: bodily injury and property damage.  Most states in the US require liability coverages, subject to limits, which is the maximum amount the insurer will pay when the incident occurs.  For example, a car accident can be expensive.  This is why there is a limit of compensation which an insurer can offer.

Deborah Lewis, general manager of the Northwest Division of Berkshire Co., has significant authority over pricing decisions as well as programs that involve cost reduction/control. The data that follow relate to upcoming divisional operations:



Average invested capital: $15,000,000

Annual total fixed costs: $3,900,000

Variable cost per unit: $80

Number of units expected to be sold: 120,000

Assume the unit selling price is $132 and that Berkshire has a 16% imputed interest charge.

Top management will promote Deborah to corporate headquarters if her division can generate $200,000 of residual income (RI). If Deborah desires to move to corporate, what adjustment must the division do to the amount of annual total fixed costs?

Answers

Answer:

The revised fixed costs = $3,640,000

Explanation:

Calculation of Residual Income:

Residual Income = Net income - (Invested capital * Minimum required rate of return)

Net Income = Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs

Net Income = (120,000*132) - (120,000*80) - 3,900,000

Net Income = $2,340,000

Invested capital = $15,000,000

Minimum required rate of return = 16%

Therefore, residual income = $2,340,000 - ($15,000,000 * 16%)

= -$60,000

Hence, adjustment to be made to the amount of fixed costs so that residual income becomes $200,000 = $200,000+$60,000 = $260,000

Therefore, revised fixed costs = $3,900,000 - $260,000 = $3,640,000

Q = √(2DS)/H  

​  

where:

Q=EOQ units

D=Demand in units (typically on an annual basis)  = 2,000

S=Order cost (per purchase order)  = $100

H=Holding costs (per unit, per year) = $31.20 ($78 x 40%)

Formula and Calculation of Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)

Q =  √(2x2,000x $100)/$31.2

​Q = √12,820.5 = 113.228 or 113 approximately.

Explanation:

EOQ is an important cash flow management tool. The formula assists a company to control the amount of cash tied up in inventory.  For many companies, inventory is their largest asset.  Companies hold enough inventory to meet customers' demand.  Since EOQ minimizes the level of inventory, the cash savings can be used for some other business purposes or investments.

The goal of the EOQ formula is to identify the optimal number of product units to order. If achieved, a company can minimize its costs for buying, delivery, and storing units, including the costs from running out of inventory.

Jayne Butterfield, a single mother with three children, lived in Sacramento, California. Sarah Huckleberry also lived in California until she moved to New York City to open and operate an art gallery. Huckleberry asked Butterfield to manage the gallery under a one-year contract for an annual salary of $90,000. To begin work, Butterfield relocated to New York. As part of the move, Butterfield transferred custody of her children to her husband, who lived in London, England. In accepting the job, Butterfield also forfeited her husband's alimony and child-support payments, including unpaid amounts of nearly $45,000. Before Butterfield started work, Huckleberry repudiated the contract. Unable to find employment for more than an annual salary of $30,000, Butterfield moved to London to be near her children. She filed a suit in an California state court against Huckleberry, seeking damages for breach of contract. Should the court hold, as Huckleberry argued, that Butterfield did not take reasonable steps to mitigate her damages? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

No, the court should not hold in favor of Huckleberry.

Explanation:

The rule of mitigation that Huckleberry tries to use in her favor states that the non-breaching party (Butterfield) should have taken all the necessary steps to reduce her loss, e.g. take a job in New York. She probably argued that Butterfield leaving for England to meet with her children made things worse.

But in this case, Butterfield relied on Huckleberry's promise to organize her life and the well being of her children. Butterfield made a lot of changes and sacrifices in her life because of this, e.g. forfeiting unpaid alimony, transferring custody of her children , etc.

Moving to a different city or country requires a lot of work, expat life is not easy and not everyone can handle it. Butterfield took decisions that affected the lives of many people and she is not responsible for Huckleberry's breaching, the only party responsible for all this mess is Huckleberry and it is normal that Butterfield would want to go to where her children are.

In 2010, the BowWow Company purchased 11,752 units from its supplier at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit. BowWow sold 18,971 units of its product in 2010 at a price of $ 24.86 per unit. BowWow began 2010 with $ 864,593 in inventory (inventory is carried at a cost of $ 11.73 per unit). Using this information, compute BowWow's 2010 ending inventory balance (in dollars).

Answers

Answer:

Ending inventory balance is $ 779,914.13  

Explanation:

The cost of goods sold formula can be used to determine the ending inventory by rearranging the formula and making the ending inventory the subject of the formula:

cost of goods=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-ending inventory

ending inventory=beginning inventory+inventory purchased-costs of goods sold

ending inventory=$864,593+(11,752*$11.73)-(18971*$11.73)=$ 779,914.13  

Webster's Discount Appliances expects sales of $12,000, $15,000, and $25,000 during April, May, and June (big sale in June). To build business, Webster let's all customers buy on credit, and all do so. In the past, 20% of Webster's Discount Appliances sales have been collected during the month of sale, 65% are collected the following month, and 15% the month after that. If this trend continues, what will be Webster's total cash collections in the month of June

Answers

Answer:

$16,550

Explanation:

The computation of total cash collections in the month of June is shown below:-

Total cash collections in the month of June = (June sales × Percentage of collection) + (May sales × Percentage) + (April × Percentage)

= ($25,000 × 20%) + ($15,000 × 65%) + ($12,000 × 15%)

= $5,000 + $9,750 + $1,800

= $16,550

So, for computing the total cash collections in the month of June we simply applied the above formula.

A company received a bank statement showing a balance of $78,000. Reconciling items included outstanding checks of $2,400 and a deposit in transit of $9,400. What is the company's adjusted bank balance

Answers

Answer:

Adjusted Bank Balance = $85,000

Explanation:

Adjustment of bank balance is a bank reconciliation procedure, that is used to match the amount in the bank statement with the amount in the company's balance sheet.

To adjust the bank balance, particulars that need to be subtracted or added to the bank statement balance has to be identified and treated accordingly.

For this example, the adjusted balance is calculated thus:

Adjusted bank balance = (Bank statement balance) - (outstanding checks) +(deposit in transit)

Adjusted Bank Balance = 78,000 - 2,400 + 9,400 = $85,000

Note:

outstanding checks are subtracted because they are payments to be made made by the company, representing a liability to the company (payer)

deposit in transit is an income to the company that has not been credited yet, but that will be credited.

Explanation:

Solution

Many state bar affiliations have looked to make their advertising guidelines increasingly rigid, apparently in light of the fact that the picture of the legal calling has been enduring lately.

This example tries to clarify these changes endeavors by looking at whether bar affiliations are reacting to requests of individuals as exhibited by mentalities towards advertising, just as by their advertising practices.

For example let us take the case of law firm Bates where U.S Preeminent Court choices are not having their expected impacts and that advertising by legal advisors is misdirecting and compounding, making an atmosphere ready for change

Then again, the choices may be having their expected impacts of driving down costs and permitting youthful firms/lawyers to look for customers all the more adequately.

Utilizing study information of little firm legal advisors accumulated in four states before the change development got a lot of consideration, the proof recommends neither of these clarifications represents endeavors to make advertising progressively troublesome.

The little firm legal counselors, those suggested to profit by Bates and ensuing choices, have not changed their conduct in any calculable way.

Most advertising is in the business catalog and costs practically nothing, also mentalities toward advertising are not especially ideal.

Demand for dishwasher water pumps is 8 per day. The standard deviation of demand is 3 per day, and the order lead time is four days. The service level is 95%. What should the reorder point be?

Answers

Answer:

41.9 units

Explanation:

Reorder point can be defined as the level of inventory which help to triggers an action to replace that particular inventory stock in such a way that when the stock level reduced the item must be reordered because it is the minimum unit quantity that a business owner or an organisation should always have in available inventory before they need to reorder more product.

Using this formula

Reorder point= Demand during the lead time + Z for customer service level * standard deviation * Square root of lead time multiplier.

Where,

Demand during the lead time =(8*4)

Z for customer service level =1.65

Standard deviation =3

Square root of lead time multiplier=4

Let plug in the formula

Reorder point=(8*4) + 1.65*3* square root of(4)

= 41.9 units.

Therefore the Reorder point is 41.9 units
