The management of Ethan plc is trying to decide on a
cost of capital to apply to the evaluation of investment projects.
The company has an issued share capital of 500,000 ordinary K1
shares, with a current market value cum-div of K1.17 per share. It
has also issued K200,000 of 10% debentures, which are redeemable at
par in five years’ time and have a current market value of K105.30
cum-interest, and K100,000 of K1 irredeemable 6% preference shares,
currently priced at K0.40 per share ex-div. The preference dividend
has just been paid, and the ordinary dividend and debenture
interest are due to be paid in the near future.
Management considers the current capital structure of the company
to be similar to their plans for its long-term capital
structure.
The ordinary share dividend will be K60,000 this year, and the
Directors have published their view that earnings and dividends
will increase by 5% a year into the indefinite future. The company
pays tax at 25% per year in the same year as profits.
Required:
a) Calculate the WACC.
b) Discuss the importance of the cost of capital in project
appraisal and highlight the impact
that a wrong discount rate would have on decision making.

Selling price is $10/tin. The cost is $8/tin This includes $6 of direct material and $1.50 of direct labor. Direct labor is 1 hour per 100 tins. Annual manufacturing overhead is estimated at $100,000 for the expected sales of 200,000 tins. The breakdown for manufacturing overhead includes 85% of variable costs.
1a. What is the standard fixed manufacturing overhead
cost per tin?
b. The Volume Variance is $750 Favorable. How many units were
actually produced during the year?
c. How much is total budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead?
d. The Controllable Variance is $3250 Unfavorable. What was the total dollar amount for actual manufacturing overhead?
e. What are the total standard hours allowed for actual production?
6. The Labor Quantity Variance is $300 Unfavorable. How many total actual hours were worked?
7. What is the total standard cost of direct materials for total actual production?

The company has a traditional costing system in which manufacturing overhead is applied to units based on direct labor-hours. Data concerning manufacturing overhead and direct labor-hours for the upcoming year appear below:
| Estimated total manufacturing overhead | $ | 1,927,800 | ||
| Estimated total direct labor-hours | 113,400 | DLHs | ||
Required:
1. Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the company’s traditional costing system.
2. The company is considering replacing its traditional costing system with an activity-based costing system that would assign its manufacturing overhead to the following four activity cost pools (the Other cost pool includes organization-sustaining costs and idle capacity costs):
| Estimated Overhead Cost |
Expected Activity | |||||
| Activities and Activity Measures | Xtreme | Pathfinder | Total | |||
| Supporting direct labor (direct labor-hours) | $ | 703,080 | 37,400 | 76,000 | 113,400 | |

| Product sustaining (number of products) | 700,000 | 1 | 1 | 2 | ||
| Other | 44,720 | NA | NA | NA | ||
| Total manufacturing overhead cost | $ | 1,927,800 | ||||
Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the activity-based costing system.
3. Prepare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments.
repare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and "Percentage" answers to 1 decimal place.)
