Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Debt Ratio in 2017 = 44.57%; Debt Ratio in 2016 = 39.33%; Equity Ratio in 2017 = 55.43%; and Equity Ratio in 2016 = 60.67%.

(2) Debt-To-Equity Ratio in 2017 = 80.42%; and Debt-To-Equity Ratio in 2016 = 64.83%.

(3) Times Interest Earned in 2017 = 4.71 times; and Times Interest Earned in 2016 = 4.22 times.

Explanation:

(1) Calculation of debt and equity ratios

Debt ratio is a ratio that is used to measure the ability of a company to pay off its liabilities with its assets. Debt ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Debt Ratio = Total Debt / Total Assets

We can then calculate as follows:

Total debt = Accounts payable + Long-term notes payable secured by mortgages on plant assets

Total debt in 2017 = $159,605 + $120,505 = $280,110

Total debt in 2016 = $89,723 + $123,354 = $213,077

Total assets in 2017 = $628,417

Total assets in 2016 = $541,739

Debt Ratio in 2017 = $280,110 / $628,417 = 0.4457, or 44.57%

Debt Ratio in 2016 = $213,077 / $541,739 = 0.3933, or 39.33%

Equity ratio is a ratio that is used to measure the amount of assets of a company that are financed by the investments of the owners of the company. Equity ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Equity Ratio = Total Equity / Total Assets

We can then calculate as follows:

Total equity = Common stock, $10 par value + Retained earnings

Total equity in 2017 = $162,500 + $185,807 = $348,307

Total equity in 2016 = $162,500 + $166,162 = $328,662

Equity Ratio in 2017 = 0.5543, or 55.43%

Equity Ratio in 2016 = 0.6067, or 60.67%

(2) Calculation of debt-to-equity ratio.

The debt-equity ratio provides the proportion of financing of a company that is contributed by creditors and investors. Debt-equity ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Debt-To-Equity Ratio = Total Debt / Total Equity

Using the data in part (1) above, we can then calculate as follows:

Debt-To-Equity Ratio in 2017 = $280,110 / $348,307 = 0.8042, or 80.42%

Debt-To-Equity Ratio in 2016 = $213,077 / $328,662 = 0.6483, or 64.83%

(3) Calculation of times interest earned

The times interest earned ratio is a ratio that is used to determine the proportionate amount of income that that is required to cover interest expenses. The times interest earned ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Times Interest Earned = Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) / Interest expenses

We can then calculate as follows:

EBIT = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Other operating expenses

EBIT in 2017 = $816,942 - $498,335 - $253,252 = $65,355

EBIT in 2016 = $644,669 - $419,035 - $163,101 = $62,533

Interest expenses in 2017 = $13,888

Interest expenses in 2016 = $14,827

Times Interest Earned in 2017 = $65,355 / $13,888 = 4.71 times

Times Interest Earned in 2016 = $62,533 / $14,827 = 4.22 times

What is the future value of $15,000 received today if it is invested at 7.5% compounded annually for five years

Answers

Answer:

the future value is $21,534.44

Explanation:

The computation of the future value is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

where,  

Present value is $15,000

The Interest rate is 7.5%

And, the number of the year is 5 years

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the future value is  

= $15,000 × (1 + 0.075)^5

= $21,534.44

Hence, the future value is $21,534.44

2. Why we divide 7 over 10? What does 7 mean and what does 10 represent?

Answers

Answer:

Neat Clothes

1. Can you explain how did we get 22,400?

The total wages for 2 weeks or 10 days (5 days each) is $32,000.  For the weeks under review, only 7 days are worked in June, the remaining 3 days are in July.  To calculate June salaries alone the $32,000 is divided by 10 days, to get the wages per day, and then multiplied by 7 days for the seven days in June.

2. Why we divide 7 over 10? What does 7 mean and what does 10 represent?

The 7 means the days of work done in June and 10 represents the 2 weeks for which wages are being calculated.

So, dividing 7 over 10 gives the proportion of June salaries from the total of $32,000.

As above.

Fixed selling expense                   $ 2.40

Fixed administrative expense       $ 2.10

Total fixed costs per unit               $8.50

The total amount for the product cost incurred will be $139000.

The period cost for 10000 units will be $61500. If 8,000 units are produced and sold, the variable cost per unit produced and sold will be $11.55. If 12,500 units are produced and sold, the variable cost per unit produced and sold will be $11.55.

The Oliver Company plans to market a new product. Based on its market studies, Oliver estimates that it can sell up to 5,500 units in 2005. The selling price will be $2 per unit. Variable costs are estimated to be 20% of total revenue. Fixed costs are estimated to be $6,400 for 2005. How many units should the company sell to break even

Answers

Answer:

4,000

Explanation:

Break even quantity = fixed cost / price - variable cost per unit

Total revenue = price x quantity sold

$2 x 5,500 = $11,000

Variable cost = 0.2 x $11,000 = $2,200

Variable cost per unit = $2,200 / 5500 = $0.4

 $6,400 / $2 - $0.4 = 4,000

If A, B, and C are three activities connected with SS and FF (combination) relationships with 2-day lag on the SS relationships only. Their durations are 5, 10, and 3; respectively. What is the duration of the project:

Answers

Answer:

22 days

Explanation:

number of activities : 3 ( A,B,C)

connected via : SS and FF combination.  days lag on SS and F = 2

Durations : 5,10 and 3

A and B is connected by SS and there is a 2-day lag on the SS connection, this means that B will start 2 days after A have ended

i.e when T = 0 , B will start : 5 +2 = 7 days and end in 17 days

while B and C is connected by FF and there is also a 2-day lag on the FF connection, this means that C will start after B has ended and end in 2 days

i.e when B ends at 17 days ; C starts = 17 + 2 = 19 DAYS

hence the project will end in 19 + 3 = 22 days ( i.e when C ends )

Motivating employees is more challenging today than two decades ago because:_______A) employers have difficulty understanding the different needs and expectations that younger generation employees bring to the workplace. B) there are more layers of management today, which makes it more difficult to motivate everyone in management positions. C) corporate downsizing and reduced job security have damaged the levels of trust employees need to work beyond minimum levels. D) all of the above. E) 'A' and 'C' only.

Answers

Answer:  E) 'A' and 'C' only.

Explanation:

The younger generation of today are in a new world with new values as opposed to the generation that were at work two decades ago. As such, they need to be motivated in different ways. Where in the past simply using money to motivate was the solution, today's generation require other things to motivate them as well such as fulfilment.

Employers therefore have more difficulty understanding the different needs and expectations that this younger generation bring to the workplace.

Also, with the constant downsizing that affects the workplace today, job security is not as pronounced as in the past which has led to employee morale and trust being damaged because they know that they could work really hard and still have their jobs terminated. A lot of them therefore just work at the minimum level so as not to give too much in case they are indeed fired.

What would happen to GDP if a significant number of house-spouses who were previously staying home to care for their children began taking jobs and placing their children in day-care? Would the nation's well-being necessarily be better off?

Answers

Answer:

The GDP will increase.

Explanation:

The number of women taking a job will result in the rise of real GDP because their participation will increase the number of economic activities. Therefore, a rise in economic activities will boost the GDP. But it would be uncertain to say that the well being of the nation will be better off because daycare will harm the bond of children and parents. Moreover, lack of parental supervision will result in the low performance of children at the latter age and if the child is at the age in which breastfeeding is required then lack of breastfeeding may harm child's physical and mental health as well.
