Answer:

Cost of common stock is 12.02%

Explanation:

The cost of common stock can be computed from share price formula given below:

share price=do*(1+g)/r-g

do is the dividend just paid which is $1.70

g is the expected dividend growth per year which is 3.10%

r is the cost of common stock which is unknown

share price is $19.65

by changing the subject of the formula:

r=do*(1+g)/share price+g

r=1.70*(1+3.10%)/19.65+3.10%

r=1.7527/19.65+3.10%

r=0.0892+3.10%=12.02%

The company's cost of capital which is also the cost of common stock is 12.02%

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

$109.80 per unit

Explanation:

For we to be able to calculate the or solve the problem, we are to use the following method

Firstly

Variable cost per unit = $728,190 ÷ 8,700 units

Variable cost per unit = $83.70 per unit

Secondly

Fixed cost per unit at 8,900 units = $232,290 ÷ 8,900 units

Fixed cost per unit = $26.10 per unit

Lastly

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

Which we have as;

Total cost = $83.70 per unit + $26.10 per unit

Total cost = $109.80 per unit

Vietnam and Ecuador both produce shrimp and rice. Vietnam can produce 180 thousand pounds of shrimp or 60 thousand pounds of ric
Elden [556K]

Answer:

(a) 3 pounds of shrimp

(b) 5 pounds of shrimp

Explanation:

Opportunity costs refers to the costs or benefits that are foregone to select some other alternative.

Vietnam can produce 180,000 pounds of shrimp or 60,000 pounds of rice in a year:

Opportunity cost of producing one pound of rice = 180,000 ÷ 60,000

                                                                                  = 3 pounds of shrimp

Ecuador can produce 130,000 pounds of shrimp or 26,000 pounds of rice in a year:

Opportunity cost of producing one pound of rice = 130,000 ÷ 26,000

                                                                                  = 5 pounds of shrimp

Therefore,

According to the principle of comparative advantage, the Vietnam has a comparative advantage in producing rice because it has a opportunity cost of producing rice than Ecuador.

The following information relates to the manufacturing operations of the JNR Printing Company for the year: Beginning Ending Raw
grin007 [14]

Answer: $117,000

Explanation:

So we are to calculate the Raw Materials purchased during the year.

Logically speaking the following should hold,

Raw materials purchased during the year + beginning raw materials = ending Raw materials + Raw materials used

Agreeing on that and rearranging the formula we will have,

Raw Material purchased during the year = Raw Material used during the year + Ending Raw Material Inventory - Opening Raw Material Inventory

Slotting in the figures we will then have,

Raw Material purchased during the year = 114,000 + 56,000 - 53,000

= $117,000

Raw materials purchased during the year amount to $117,000.
