Answer:
For the tear 2019, net income is 40,000
Beginning of the year 2019, asset of the S are 200,000
Ending of the year 2019, asset of the S are 300,000
Average asset for 2019= Beginning assets + Closing assets / 2
Average asset for 2019= 200,000 + 300,000 / 2
Average asset for 2019= $250,000
Return on assets = Net income / Average assets * 100%
= 40,000 / 250,000 * 100
=16%
Thus, the return on assets is 16%
Conclusion: If the average return of assets of the competitors are 11%, It means S uses the assets efficient manner, so performance of the S is very good ad return of the S is higher than competitors on asset
At an output level of 6,000 units, you have calculated that the degree of operating leverage is 2.3. The operating cash flow is $12,000 in this case. a. Ignoring the effect of taxes, what are fixed costs
Answer: $15,600
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Output level = 6,000 units
Degree of operating leverage = 2.3
Operating cash flow = $12,000
Contribution margin = Degree of operating leverage × Operating cash flow
= 2.3 × $12,000
= $27,600
Fixed cost = contribution margin - Operating cash flow
= $27,600 - $12,000
= $15,600
A bank has $10,000 in excess reserves and the required reserve ratio is 20 percent. This means the bank could have __________ in checkable deposit liabilities and __________ in total reserves.
Answer: $100,000; $30,000
Explanation:
The reserve rate is the amount of money that is made compulsory by the central bank of a country to the commercial banks to keep with them. It is a way of controlling the money in circulation.
A bank has $10,000 in excess reserves and the required reserve ratio is 20 percent. This means the bank could have $100,000 in checkable deposit liabilities and $30,000 in total reserves.
Since deposit is $100,000 and reserved rate is 20%, this will give an amount of: 20% × $100,000 = $20,000. Adding the $10,000 excess reserve will make $30,000 to which is the total reserve

Another bank is also offering favorable terms, so Rahul decides to take a loan of $12,000 from this bank. He signs the loan contract at 5% compounded daily for 12 months. Based on a 365-day year, what is the total amount that Rahul owes the bank at the end of the loan's term
Answer:
$12,615.21
Explanation:
we need to determine the future value of the loan:
future value = present value x (1 + interest rate)ⁿ
present value = $12,000n = 365 days (compounded daily)interest rate = 5% / 365 days = 0.05/365 = 0.000136986future value = $12,000 x (1 + 0.000136986)³⁶⁵ = $12,000 x 1.051267496 = $12,615.21
Suppose the entire banking system has $50 million in excess reserves and a required reserve ratio of 10 percent. The deposit-creation potential of the banking system is:
Answer: $500 million
Explanation:
The required reserve ratio is the fraction of the total deposit that a bank recieves which is mandated by the central bank to be kept and should not be given out.
If the entire banking system has $50 million in excess reserves and a required reserve ratio of 10 percent. The deposit-creation potential of the banking system will be:
= $50million/10%
= $50million/0.1
= $500 million
Michael is unaware that it is very important for those from Japan to establish close personal relationships before talking about business. His violation of such ____, which concerns routine social conventions, is probably the main reason that he fails to have Norio sign the contract.

What are the kinds of purchases for which you’ll "spare no expense"? What kinds of purchases do you want to buy spending as little as possible? What are the major differences between these two categories that drive your attitude regarding price?
Answer:
"Spare no Expense" Purchases
When purchasing long-term items (assets) which cannot be consumed within a short-term period, one tends to "spare no expense." These purchases are dictated by their quality and not price. For example, in constructing a building an individual or an entity does not consider the price as a deciding factor. Instead, the entity goes for the best quality at whatever price. In such a situation, it can be described as "sparing no expense" because it can spend as possible as is needed to ensure that the quality of the construction was of the highest standard. A wealthy man does not spare any expense to receive medical treatment. Vacationists spare no expense to go on vacation
These purchases or items come with high prices and they last longer than a year.
On the other hand, one does not want to spend much resources on goods that are not durable. So, the person involved tend to spend as little as possible. No one wants to buy expensive food items. But, the same person can pay for an exorbitant car. No one wants to expend much resources on inner wears, but the same person can spend thousand for the outer wears, to put up appearances.
Ostentatious goods that convey image attract higher prices much more than private goods that others co not care whether you use them or not. This accords with our human natural way of believing in appearances.
The major factors that differentiate between these two categories that drive our attitude regarding price include:
a) Scarcity, b) Longevity, c) Quality, d) Price, e) Durability, f) Ostentation
Explanation:
The expression "spare no expense" means to spend as much financial resources as needed in order to make something happen or bring about an outcome.
Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $13, $9, $8, and $3.50. Afterward, the company pledges to maintain a constant 5 percent growth rate in dividends forever. If the required return on the stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price?
Answer:
Price of share $ 59.747
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
This model would be applied as follows:
PV of dividend from Year 1 to Year 4
(13× 1.12^-1) + (9× 1.12^-2 ) + ( 8 ×1.12^-3 ) + (3.50 ×1.12^-3 )= 26.38
PV of dividend from year 5 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
PV in year 4 terms
PV = D× (1+g)/ke- g
D- 3.50, g- 5%, ke- 12%
PV = 3.50× 1.05/ (0.12- 0.05)
PV = 52.5
PV in year 0 terms
52.5 × 1.12^(-4)= 33.36469912
Total PV = 26.38 + 33.36 = 59.747
Price of share $ 59.747

e. Joint Venture
f. Wholly-Owned
g. Subsidiary
Answer:
Exporting
Advantage
Cost avoidance
Disadvantage
Lower Costs Loss.
With Exporting, one can get into a country with lower costs because they will not have to set up. However they stand to have the disadvantage of losing lower costs.
Turnkey Project
Advantage
Profit from Processes
Disadvantage
Little Future Revenue
Turnkey projects involve building a facility for another company and then fully equipping it. When it is ready you hand it over. You stand to make profits from the process of building but because the facility is given to the purchaser, there is little chance for future revenue.
Licensing
Advantage
Low capital Requirement
Disadvantage
Lost Economies
With Licensing, one does not have to spend a lot to get into a country as other companies just use your license. You however stand the risk of losing your control in the country.
Joint Venture
Advantage
Access to Local Expertise
Disadvantage
Battles for Control
With Joint Venture, an International firm will have access to the expertise of its partners who are locals and know how things are done. However, because the locals know how things are done and are in their country, there might be battles between the partners about who should dominate.
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary
Advantage
Tight Control
Disadvantage
Most Costly Method
With a wholly-owned Subsidiary, an international company will have complete control over the affairs of the business and not have to battle for it with anyone. The drawback however is the cost it will take to set up. Large amounts will always have to be spent on starting a fresh company in a different country.
A jeans maker is designing a new line of jeans called Slims. The jeans will sell for $355 per pair and cost $262.70 per pair in variable costs to make. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Required:
a. Compute the contribution margin per pair.
b. Compute the contribution margin ratio.
Answer:
a.$92.30
b.27.55%
Explanation:
a. Computation for the contribution margin per pair
Sales 355.00 per pair
Less:Variable cost $262.70 per pair
Contribution margin $92.30 per pair
Therefore the Contribution margin per pair will be $92.30
b. Computation for the contribution margin ratio.
Using this formula
Contribution margin ratio=Contribution margin per unit/Selling price per unit
Where,
Contribution margin per unit =$92.30
Selling price per unit =$335.00
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin ratio=$92.30/$335.00
Contribution margin ratio =27.55%
Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 27.55%

Suppose there is an improvement in technology in this market and the price of lamps, a complementary good, increases. What changes do you predict in the equilibrium price and quantity
Answer:
Complementary goods are those goods that, as the word implies, are often used together. For example: milk and cereals, or gasoline and cars.
If the price of a complementary good increases, then, the price of the other complementary good will likely increase as well. The quantity demanded for both will fall, will the supply will increase.
This is exactly what would happen in the case, the price of the good that is complementary to lamps will increase, and its quantity demanded will fall.
The jewelry department has an initial markup of 55.6%, with total retail reductions of 15%. There are no alteration costs or cash discounts. What is the maintained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage
Answer:
Maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
Gross margin percentage = 48.9%
Explanation:
Given:
Initial markup = 55.6%
Total retail reductions = 15%
To find the maintained markup percentage use the formula below:
%MMU = Initial MU% - Retail reductions% (100% - Initial MU%)
Substitute figures:
%MMU = 55.6% - 15% (100% - 55.6%)
= 55.6% - 15% (44.4%)
= 55.6% - 6.66%
= 48.9%
Therefore, the maintained markup percentage = 48.9%
To find the gross margin percentage, use the formula below:
GM% = (Net sales - Total cost of goods) /Net sales
We can also use this formula below to find the maintained markup percentage:
MMU% = (Net sales - Gross cost of goods) /Net sales
But we are told that there are no alteration costs or cash discounts here. Therefore the gross cost is the same as the total cost of goods.
This means that the mantained markup percentage and the gross margin percentage are equal.
GM% = 48.9%
When longer-term employees' salaries are lower than those of workers entering the firm today, ______ has occurred.
Answer: Salary compression
Explanation:
Salary compression is a situation that occurs when there is a negligible differences in pay between the workers in an organization despite the experience and skills level.
It usually occurs when the pay of the current employees that are working with a company does not keep up with the rise in market pay rate thereby giving rise to a situation whereby new employees are employed at a identical pay or better pay to those that have been at the organization.
On May 10, Monty Corp. issues 1,900 shares of $4 par value common stock for cash at $13 per share. Journalize the issuance of the stock. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Answer:
May 10, 2020, 1,900 shares issued at $13
Dr Cash 24,700
Cr Common stock 7,600
Cr Additional paid in capital 17,100
The common stock account increases using the pay value as reference. For example, if the common stock account = $200,000 and the par value of the stocks = $4, then we know that the company has 50,000 common stocks outstanding.
If investors pay any amount over the stocks' par value, that amount must be reported as additional paid in capital, in this case for common stock.
If the real money demand is greater than the real money supply, interest rates must rise to reach equilibrium in the money market as institutions sell bonds to obtain more money.1. True2. False
Answer:
2. False
Explanation:
The market for money is like the market for any other good: if demand is higher than supply, then, the price of money (the interest rate), will have to be lowered, so that money becomes cheaper and more abundant, and supply and demand become equal and reach equilibrium.
In this case, the centrla bank needs to lower the interest rates by buying bonds. When the central bank buys bonds, it prints more money that is put in the market, effectively increasing the supply of money, and lowering the interest rate in the meantime.
Skolnick Corporation has provided the following information: Cost per Unit Cost per Period Direct materials $ 5.00 Direct labor $ 4.50 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 112,000 Sales commissions $ 1.20 Variable administrative expense $ 0.50 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 35,200 Required: a. If 8,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of direct manufacturing cost incurred? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) b. If 8,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of indirect manufacturing costs incurred?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $5.00
Direct labor $4.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $112,000
First, we need to calculate the direct production costs if 8,000 units are produced:
Direct costs= direct material + direct labor
Direct costs= (5+4.5)*8,000= $76,000
Now, the indirect costs of production for 8,000 units.
Indirect costs= total variable costs total fixed costs
Indirect costs= 1.6*8,000 + 112,000
Indirect costs= $124,800
Teddy's Pillows had beginning net fixed assets of $471 and ending net fixed assets of $550. Assets valued at $319 were sold during the year. Depreciation was $42. What is the amount of net capital spending?
Answer:
Net Capital Spending = $121
Explanation:
The Net Capital Spending is the amount of money a company spends in the acquisition of fixed assets during the year. Mathematically, it is represented as:
Net Capital Spending = Ending net fixed asset - Beginning net fixed asset + depreciation
Net Capital Spending = 550 - 471 + 42 = $121
∴ Net Capital Spending = $121
n preparing a company's statement of cash flows for the most recent year using the indirect method, the following information is available: Net income for the year was $52,000 Accounts payable decreased by 18,000 Accounts receivable increased by 25,000 Inventories increased by 5,000 Depreciation expense was 30,000 Net cash provided by operating activities was:

Adjustments :
Add Depreciation expense 30,000
Less Decrease in Accounts payable (18,000)
Less Increase in accounts receivables (25,000)
Less Increase in inventories (5,000)
Net cash provided by operating activities $34,000
Therefore Net cash provided by operating activities was: $34,000
Samantha owns 1,000 shares in Evita, Inc., an S corporation, that uses the calendar year. Her stock basis at the beginning of the tax year was $60,000. Evita's ordinary income for the year was $22,000 through the date of sale, and Samantha receives a distribution of $35,000 on May 3rd. Her stock basis at the end of the year is:
Answer:
$47,000
Explanation:
Stock basis at the time of sales = Stock basis at the beginning + Ordinary income for the part year - Distribution received
it is provided that opening Stock = $60,000
Ordinary income for the part-year = $22,000
Distribution amount received = $35000
Her stock basis at the end of the year is = $60,000 + $22,000 - $35,000
= $82,000 - $35,000
= $47,000
Assume that the demand curve for MP3 players shifts to the right and the supply curve for MP3 players shift to the left, but the supply curve shifts more than the demand curve. As a result:________
a. both the equilibrium price and quantity of MP3 players will decrease.
b. the equilibrium price of MP3 players will decrease; the equilibrium quantity will increase.
c. the equilibrium price of MP3 players may increase or decrease; the equilibrium quantity will decrease.
d. the equilibrium price of MP3 players will increase; the equilibrium quantity will decrease.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option D: the equilibrium price of MP3 players will increase; the equilibrium quantity will decrease.
Explanation:
First of all, the supply and demand curves are the graphical representation of the price and the quantity demanded and supplied respectively in each case. Moreover, in the graphic when both curves are in equilibrim that means that there is a single point in where the price and the quantity are established together for the market. Furthermore, when there is a shift of any curve that point will be changed so when there is a shift in the demand curve to the right the price will increase and the quantity will increase but if there is a shift in the supply change to the left and that shift is greater then the price will increase but the quantity will decrease.
Companies increasingly strive to achieve the ______ performance when formulating their corporate strategy.
Answer:
triple bottom line
Explanation:
Companies increasingly strive to achieve the triple bottom line performance when formulating their corporate strategy. The triple bottom line (TBL) is a framework used in business that focuses on equally on social/environmental concerns as well as profits, thus creating three equal points of interest (bottom lines) which are profit, people, and the environment. This leads to a successful and balanced company.
