Answer:

$36

Explanation:

Computation for comparable firm 1

Price earning = Share price / Earning per share

= $50 / 5 = $10

Computation for comparable firm 2

Price earning = Share price / Earning per share

= $28 / 2 = $14

Average price earning = (Price earning of firm 1 + Price earning of firm 2) / 2

= ($10 + $14) / 2

= $12

Computation of stock price For STU

Stock price = Average price earning × Earning per share of STU

STU = 12 × ($3 million / $1 million) = $36

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The buyer can sue for specific performance of the contract. In real estate, in order for the buyer to be able to sue for specific performance, he/she must have all the money (or mortgage) ready to finish the transaction. It is very difficult for someone to sue for damages for not wanting to complete the sale of a house because houses are unique in a way that similar houses in different neighborhoods or even streets might be worth a lot more or less.

When you sue for specific performance, the non-breaching party will request that the other party performs their side of the contract.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

When it produces and sells 4,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.40

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 2.60

Units produced= 3,000

<u>To calculate the unitary indirect manufacturing cost, you can use two different methods</u>. The variable method only uses the variable manufacturing overhead. The absorption method uses the total unitary overhead.

Total fixed overhead= 2.6*4,000= 10,400

<u>Variable costing method</u>:

Unitary indirect manufacturing cost= $1.4

<u>Absorption costing method:</u>

Unitary fixed overhead= 10,400/3,000= $3.47

Unitary indirect manufacturing cost= 1.4 + 3.47= $4.87

Vermeillen Corporation uses a standard costing system in which variable manufacturing overhead is assigned to production on the
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

1 ) Variable Overhead Rate Variance = ( SR - AR )* AH

                                                         = ( $21 - $20) 3,500

                                                        = $3,500 Favorable

2 ) Labor Rate =  ( SR - AR )* AH

                      =  ( $24 - $24.9) 2,290

                      =$2,061 U

Explanation:

TOTAL =  Standard cost - Incurred cost

Standard Cost = $70,000 + $4,550

                        = $74,550

Standard Rate = $74,550 / 3,550

                        = $21

cost incurred = AR * machine hours

cost per machine hour = $70,000/3,500

                                      =$20

2) Labor Rate =  ( SR - AR )* AH

                      =  ( $24 - $24.9) 2,290

                      =$2,061 U

AR = $57,021/2,290 = $24.9

AR = Actual Rate

SR = Standard Rate

AH = Actual hours

Tyare Corporation had the following inventory balances at the beginning and end of May:
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

a. $5,460

Explanation:

The computation of the ending amount of direct labor cost is shown below:

First we have to compute the direct labor hours which is

= Ending work in process - direct materials cost

= $17,578 - $7,750

= $9,828

The total per direct labor hours is

= $12 + $15

= $27

So, the direct labor hours would be

= $9,828 ÷ $27

= 364 hours

So, the ending direct labor cost is

= 364 hours × $15 per hour

= $5,460
