Walsh company manufactures and sells one product. the following information pertains to each of the company’s first two years of operations: variable costs per unit: manufacturing: direct materials $ 25 direct labor $ 12 variable manufacturing overhead $ 5 variable selling and administrative $ 4 fixed costs per year: fixed manufacturing overhead $ 400,000 fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 60,000 during its first year of operations, walsh produced 50,000 units and sold 40,000 units. during its second year of operations, it produced 40,000 units and sold 50,000 units. the selling price of the company’s product is $83 per unit. required: 1. assume the company uses variable costing: a. compute the unit product cost for year 1 and year 2. b. prepare an income statement for year 1 and year 2. 2. assume the company uses absorption costing: a. compute the unit product cost for year 1 and year 2. b. prepare an income statement for year 1 and year 2. 3. reconcile the difference between variable costing and absorption costing net operating income in year 1.

Calculate the cost of each capital component—in other words, the after-tax cost of debt, the cost of preferred stock (including flotation costs), and the cost of equity (ignoring flotation costs). use both the capm method and the dividend growth approach to find the cost of equity.calculate the cost of new stock using the dividend growth approach.what is the cost of new common stock based on the capm? (hint: find the difference between re and rs as determined by the dividend growth approach and then add that difference to the capm value for rs.)assuming that gao will not issue new equity and will continue to use the same target capital structure, what is the company’s wacc? e. suppose gao is evaluating three projects with the following characteristics.each project has a cost of $1 million. they will all be financed using the target mix of long-term debt, preferred stock, and common equity. the cost of the common equity for each project should be based on the beta estimated for the project. all equity will come from reinvested earnings.equity invested in project a would have a beta of 0.5 and an expected return of 9.0%.equity invested in project b would have a beta of 1.0 and an expected return of 10.0%.equity invested in project c would have a beta of 2.0 and an expected return of 11.0%.analyze the company’s situation, and explain why each project should be accepted or rejected g
