Answer:

First we need to use the ddm model when the growth rate is constant and find the price then,because the ddm model cannot be used when the growth rate  is not constant and then discount it back to present value at 12% which is the required return.

Last dividend = $4

Dividend one year from now = 4*1.015=4.06

Dividend 2 years from now = 4.06*1.015=4.12

Growth rate 2 years from now = 8%

R= 12%

Price = D*(1+G)/(R-G)

=4.12*(1+1.08)/(0.12-0.08)=4.45/0.04= 111.26

Price of stock 2 years from now $111.26, now we need to discount it to the present value. 111.26/1.12^2=88.69

Best estimate = b. $89.87

BigorU [14]

Answer:

Dollar amount of purchases is 1,228,400.

Explanation:

Total purchase of suits is equal to Inventory at the end plus sales minus inventory at the beggining.

  • Inventory at the beggining is 4,800
  • Inventory at the end (management desire) = 6,800
  • Budgeted sales = 12,800
  • Purchase of suits = 6,800 + 12,800 - 4,800 = 14,800

The explanation is if i have 4,800 units at the beggining, and i want to sell 12,800, i will need to purchase the difference (8,000 units). Plus the existence needed at the end, 8,000 + 6,800 = 14,800.

The cost per unit is $83, so the total cost is 14,800 * 83 = 1,228,400.

under the weighted average method we calcualte the equivalent unit cost by adding both, the beginning WIP inventory and the cost added during the period:

$4,500 + $37,800 = $42,300
