Anton, Inc., just paid a dividend of $2.40 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at

Anton, Inc., just paid a dividend of $2.40 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.25 percent per year, indefinitely. Assume investors require a return of 12 percent on this stock.

Requirement 1:
What is the current price? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)

  Current price $  

Requirement 2:
What will the price be in four years and in sixteen years? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)

  Four years $  
  Sixteen years $  



Explanation: 1:
The constant dividend growth model is:

Pt = Dt × (1 + g) / (Rg)

So, the price of the stock today is:

P0 = D0 (1 + g) / (Rg)
P0 = $2.40 (1.0625) / (0.12 – 0.0625)
P0 = $44.35

2:
The dividend at year 5 is the dividend today times the FVIF for the growth rate in dividends and five years, so:

P4 = D4 (1 + g) / (Rg)
P4 = D0 (1 + g)5 / (Rg)
P4 = $2.40 (1.0625)5 / (0.12 – 0.0625)
P4 = $56.52

We can do the same thing to find the dividend in Year 17, which gives us the price in Year 16, so:

P16 = D16 (1 + g) / (Rg)
P16 = D0 (1 + g)17 / (Rg)
P16 = $2.40 (1.0625)17 / (0.12 – 0.0625)
P16 = $116.99

There is another feature of the constant dividend growth model: The stock price grows at the dividend growth rate. So, if we know the stock price today, we can find the future value for any time in the future we want to calculate the stock price. In this problem, we want to know the stock price in Year four, and we have already calculated the stock price today. The stock price in Year four will be:

P4 = P0(1 + g)4
P4 = $44.35(1 + 0.0625)4
P4 = $56.52

And the stock price in Year 16 will be:

P16 = P0(1 + g)16
P16 = $44.35(1 + 0.0625)16
P16 = $116.99

Wiengot Antennas, Inc., produces and sells a unique type of TV antenna. The company has just opened a new plant to manufacture the antenna, and the following cost and revenue data have been provided for the first month of the plant’s operation.

  Beginning inventory 0   
  Units produced 40,000   
  Units sold 35,000   
  Selling price per unit $60   
  Selling and administrative expenses:
    Variable per unit $2   
    Fixed (total) $ 560,000   
  Manufacturing costs
    Direct materials cost per unit $15   
    Direct labor cost per unit $7   
    Variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit $2   
    Fixed manufacturing overhead cost (total) $ 640,000   


    Because the new antenna is unique in design, management is anxious to see how profitable it will be and has asked that an income statement be prepared for the month.
   
Required:
1. Assume that the company uses absorption costing.
  
a. Determine the unit product cost. (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

  Unit product cost $  

b.
Prepare an income statement for the month. (Input all amounts as positive values except losses which should be indicated by a minus sign. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

  Cost of goods sold  

  Gross margin  
  Selling and administrative expenses  

  Net operating income (loss) $  



    
2. Assume that the company uses variable costing.
   
a. Determine the unit product cost. (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

  Unit product cost $  

b.
Prepare a contribution format income statement for the month. (Input all amounts as positive values except losses which should be indicated by a minus sign. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)
    
Variable Costing Income Statement
  Sales $  
  Variable expenses:
       Variable cost of goods sold $  
       Variable selling and administrative expenses    


  Contribution margin  
  Fixed expenses:
       Fixed manufacturing overhead  
       Fixed selling and administrative expenses    


  Net operating income (loss) $  





Explanation: 1.
a.
The unit product cost under absorption costing is:
 
  Direct materials $ 15   
  Direct labor 7   
  Variable manufacturing overhead 2   
  Fixed manufacturing overhead (640,000 ÷ 40,000 units) 16   


  Absorption costing unit product cost $ 40   






b.
Sales (35,000 units × $60 per unit) = $2,100,000
Cost of goods sold (35,000 units × $40 per unit) = $1,400,000
Selling and administrative expenses (35,000 units × $2 per unit) + $560,000 = $630,000

2.
a.

The unit product cost under variable costing is:
 
  Direct materials $ 15   
  Direct labor 7   
  Variable manufacturing overhead 2   


  Variable costing unit product cost $ 24   






b.

Sales (35,000 units × $60 per unit) = $2,100,000
Variable cost of goods sold (35,000 units × $24 per unit) = $840,000
Variable selling and administrative expense (35,000 units × $2 per unit) = $70,000

Hammett, Inc., has sales of $19,630, costs of $9,400, depreciation expense of $2,070, and interest

Hammett, Inc., has sales of $19,630, costs of $9,400, depreciation expense of $2,070, and interest expense of $1,560. Assume the tax rate is 30 percent.  
Required:
What is the operating cash flow? (Do not include the dollar sign ($).)
 
  Operating cash flow   $  
 

Explanation:
To calculate the OCF, we first need to construct an income statement. The income statement starts with revenues and subtracts costs to arrive at EBIT. We then subtract out interest to get taxable income, and then subtract taxes to arrive at net income. Doing so, we get:

 Income statement
  Sales $ 19,630  
  Costs   9,400  
  Depreciation  2,070  


  EBIT $ 8,160  
  Interest 1,560  


  Taxable income $ 6,600  
  Taxes (30%) 1,980  


  Net income $ 4,620  






Now we can calculate the OCF, which is:

OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – Taxes
OCF = $8,160 + 2,070 – 1,980
OCF = $8,250

Lifeline, Inc., has sales of $590,000, costs of $268,000, depreciation expense of $68,500, interest

Lifeline, Inc., has sales of $590,000, costs of $268,000, depreciation expense of $68,500, interest expense of $35,500, and a tax rate of 40 percent.

Required:
What is the net income for this firm? (Do not include the dollar sign ($).)

  Net income $  
 

Explanation:
The income statement starts with revenues and subtracts costs to arrive at EBIT. We then subtract out interest to get taxable income, and then subtract taxes to arrive at net income. Doing so, we get:
 
 Income statement
  Sales $ 590,000  
  Costs 268,000  
  Depreciation 68,500  


  EBIT $ 253,500  
  Interest 35,500  


  Taxable income $ 218,000  
  Taxes 87,200  


  Net income $ 130,800  

Arredondo, Inc., has current assets of $2,360, net fixed assets of $11,200, current liabilities of $1,445,

Arredondo, Inc., has current assets of $2,360, net fixed assets of $11,200, current liabilities of $1,445, and long-term debt of $4,170.

Requirement 1:
What is the value of the shareholders’ equity account for this firm? (Do not include the dollar sign ($).)
 
  Shareholder's equity  $   

Requirement 2:
How much is net working capital? (Do not include the dollar sign ($).)
 
  Net working capital  $   
 

Explanation:
 The balance sheet for the company will look like this:
 
Balance sheet
  Current assets $ 2,360     Current liabilities $ 1,445  
  Net fixed assets 11,200     Long-term debt 4,170  
  Owner's equity 7,945  




  Total assets $ 13,560     Total liabilities & Equity $ 13,560  










The owner's equity is a plug variable. We know that total assets must equal total liabilities & owner's equity. Total liabilities and equity is the sum of all debt and equity, so if we subtract debt from total liabilities and owner's equity, the remainder must be the equity balance, so:
 
 Owner’s equity = Total liabilities & equity – Current liabilities – Long-term debt
 Owner’s equity = $13,560 – 1,445 – 4,170
 Owner’s equity = $7,945
 
 Net working capital is current assets minus current liabilities, so:
 
 NWC = Current assets – Current liabilities
 NWC = $2,360 – 1,445
 NWC = $915

Micro Products, Inc., has developed a very powerful electronic calculator. Each calculator requires

Micro Products, Inc., has developed a very powerful electronic calculator. Each calculator requires three small “chips” that cost $2 each and are purchased from an overseas supplier. Micro Products has prepared a production budget for the calculator by quarters for Year 2 and for the first quarter of Year 3, as shown below:
  
Year 2
Year 3
First Second Third Fourth First
  Budgeted production, in calculators 60,000   90,000   150,000   100,000   80,000  

  
    The chip used in production of the calculator is sometimes hard to get, so it is necessary to carry large inventories as a precaution against stockouts. For this reason, the inventory of chips at the end of a quarter must equal 20% of the following quarter’s production needs. A total of 36,000 chips will be on hand to start the first quarter of Year 2.
   
Required:
Prepare a direct materials budget for chips, by quarter and in total, for Year 2. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input all amounts as positive values. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)
