Answer:

= $132,000.

Explanation:

There are two types of fixed costs, general fixed cost and specific fixed cost.

General fixed costs are those that cannot be traced to a specific product rather they are incurred for the benefit of all of the product being produced. For example,the rent of the factory where three products are being produced

So they are unavoidable should a product be ceased for production that is they would still be incurred either way.

Specific fixed costs are those incurred specifically for a particular product and as such they would be saved should the product be discontinued. For example , if a special machine that cost $4000 a month to rent is used to produce a product. The $4000 would be saved should the production of the product ceases

The net operating cost of the company would increase by the amount of the avoidable specific fixed cost:

=$90,000 + $42,000

= $132,000.

Anna [14]

Answer:

SF7.37

Explanation:

PV of cash flow is calculated using the formula

1-(1+r)^-n/r=1-(1-0.15)^5/0.15=1-(0.75)^5/0.15=1-0.237/0.15=5.085

So pv=5.085×4.4=SF

20.3385million

Using interest parity

1+ic/1+ib =Fo/So

Counter country is US while home country is in

swiss

1+0.05/1.04=fo/1.09

Fo=1.09×1.05/1.04=1.1

So expected PV=20.3385×1.1=SF22.37235million

Profit=23.37235-15=SF7.37

If a company pays dividends on a stock, does that mean that the stock has appreciated in value? Why or why not?

PolarNik [594]

Dividend is the amount of share in the earnings paid by the company to its shareholders for their investment in the company. So dividend is paid out of the earnings made by the company and it has no relation with the increase or decrease in the value of the stock.
