The cost method that will yield an ending inventory that is closer to current prices is the a.FIFO inventory cost method. b.LIFO inventory cost method. c.specific identification inventory cost method. d.weighted average inventory cost method.
Answer: a.FIFO inventory cost method
Explanation: The First-In-First-Out inventory costing method involves applying the price associated with the oldest inventory purchase to goods sold. When the FIFO inventory method is used, when the number of goods purchased for the oldest inventory is exhausted, the cost of goods sold is then associated with the next oldest inventory. With these cost inventory method, the ending inventory always moves closer to the current prices of goods since the older inventory cost is applied first.

The risk-free rate of return is 5%, the required rate of return on the market is 10%, and High-Flyer stock has a beta coefficient of 1.5. If the dividend per share expected during the coming year, D1, is $2.50 and g = 4%, at what price should a share sell? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
$ 29.41
Explanation:
The first is to calculate the investor's required rate of return on the stock as shown below:
Ke=Risk-free rate+Beta*(return on the market-Risk-free rate)
Risk-free rate is 5%
Beta is 1.5
return on the market is 10%
Ke=5%+1.5*(10%-5%)=12.50%
The stock price formula is given below
stock price=D1/Ke-g
D1 is the expected dividend of $2.50
Ke is 12.50%
g =4%
Stock price=2.50/(12.50%-4%)=$ 29.41
Answer:
Explanation:
k=Rf+B(E[r]-Rf): k=5%+1.5(10$-5%)=12.5%

Taylor s has a beta of .78 and a debt-to-equity ratio of .2. The market rate of return is 10.6 percent, the tax rate is 34 percent, and the risk-free rate is 1.4 percent. The pretax cost of debt is 6.1 percent. What is the firm's WACC
Answer: 7.82%
Explanation:
Given the following :
Beta (B) = 0.78
Debt to equity ratio = 0.2
Market rate of return (Rm) = 10.6% = 0.106
Tax rate (T) = 34% = 0.34
Risk free rate (Rf) = 1.4% = 0.014
Pretax cost of debt (Kd) = 6.1% = 0.061
WACC =
Cost of equity (Ke) = Rf + (Rm - Rf) * B
Ke = 0.014 + (0.106 - 0.014) * 0.78
Ke = 0.014 + (0.092)*0.78
Ke = 0.014 + 0.07176
Ke = 0.08576
Equity (E) = 1
Debt (D) = 0.2
Total volume of company's finance (V) = 1+0.2 = 1.2
WACC = (E/V)*Ke + (D/V)*(1 - T)*Kd
WACC = [(1/1.2)*0.08576] + [(0.2/1.2)*(1 -0.34)*0.061
WACC = [0.0714666 + 0.00671]
WACC = 0.0781766 = 0.0782 = 7.82%

The demand for an electronic component is normally distributed with an average daily demand of 500 units and a standard deviation of 50. The lead time for the component is 9 days. If a service level of 95% is desired then the company's reorder point for this component would be approximately Group of answer choices
Answer:
4,747
Explanation:
The computation of the reorder point is shown below:-
Reorder Point = Average Daily demand × Lead time + ( Service level × (Average lead time × standard deviation of demand^2 )^ 0.5
For service probability level of 95% is 1.64
= 500 × 9 + 1.64 × (9 × 50^2)^0.5
= 4,500 + 1.64 × 150
= 4,500 + 247
= 4,747

In January, Stitch, Inc. adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation. At adoption, inventory was valued at $50,000. During the year, inventory increased $30,000 using base-year prices, and prices increased 10%. The designated market value of Stitch's inventory exceeded its cost at year end. What amount of inventory should Stitch report in its year-end balance sheet
Answer:
$83,000
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount of inventory that Stitch should report in its year-end balance sheet
First step is to calculate for the 10% price increase
Increase price = ( $30,000 x 10% ) =$3,000
Second step is to add up the price increase to the amount of increase in inventory
$30,000 + $3,000 =$33,000
Hence, $33,000 will now be the increased in price inventory
Last step is to calculate for the amount of inventory that Stitch should report in its year-end balance sheet
Using this formula
Inventory to be reported = Valued of the Adoption inventory + Increase price Inventory
Where,
Adoption inventory value= $50,000
Increase price Inventory=$33,000
Let plug in the formula
Inventory to be reported = $50,000 + $33,000
Inventory to be reported =$83,000
Therefore the amount of inventory that Stitch should report in its year-end balance sheet will be $83,000
