Why are certain crime losses, such as the theft of furs and jewelry, a more difficult exposure to insure than fire loss?

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

It is very simple, if your house burns down, the evidence is there. All you need to do it look at a house that burnt down either completely or partially, but its easy to verify.

On the other hand, if you report that a necklace was stolen, it is really difficult to verify. Unless it is a unique jewel that is worth a ton of money, you could have simply given it away as a gift and then report it as stolen. The opportunities for insurance fraud are many when dealing with jewelry or other valuable objects that can be moved around easily.

The second question about different grants of authority refer to the organizational structure of a company. E.g. a salesperson in Best Buy is able to sell any item or items to regular customers. But sometimes a large order comes and the company must decide whether to discount the price or not, and then management kicks in and decides. The same happens to insurance agents. A company decides that some agents deal with policies that involve X amount of risk. If the level of risk is higher, they must work with other agents that are authorized to deal with high risk policies. It is basically a clearance level where employees are authorized up to this amount, and above that amount, other employees must be involved.

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The answer is "$5500".

Explanation:

Analysis Differential:

Make Buy

Cost of variable $800\times 7 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = 5600$

Fixed- cost $16000\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 16000$

Purchasing cost $800\times 12\ = 9600$

Cost of opportunity $\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 9500$

Total relevant cost $31100 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 25600$

Increasing operating income $= 31100-25600 = 5500$

For the year ended December 31, a company had revenues of $187,000 and expenses of $109,000. $37,000 in dividends were paid duri

Dovator [93]

Answer:

D) Debit income summary 187000, credit revenues 187000

Explanation:

When dividend is declared, following journal entry is passed

Retained Earnings Dr.

To Dividend Payable

(Being declared dividend recorded)

When dividends are actually paid, the journal entry is

Dividend Payable A/C Dr.

To Cash A/C

(Being dividend paid recorded)

Income summary account is prepared as a temporary account while income statement represents permanent account.

Income summary shows net income balance i.e Revenue less expenses.

As per the given information in the question, debiting income summary account with total revenues of $187000 would be wrong.

High flyer, inc., wishes to maintain a growth rate of 16 percent per year and a debt-equity ratio of 0.90. the profit margin is

Xelga [282]

Answer: The dividend payout ratio is 46.19%.

We follow these steps in order to arrive at the answer:

We begin with the DuPont identity of RoE.

<u>DuPont Identity:</u>

$RoE = Net Profit Margin * Asset Turnover Ratio * Equity Multiplier$

Now,

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{Debt Ratio}$

And Debt Ratio is also expressed as:

$Debt Ratio = \frac{D/E}{1+D/E}$

where D/E represents the Debt-Equity Ratio.

Substituting the value of D/E ratio from the question in the debt ratio formula above we get,

$Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1+0.9}$

$Debt Ratio = \frac{0.9}{1.9}$ ----(1)

Substituting (1) in the equity multiplier formula above we get,

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1}{\frac{0.9}{1.9}}$

$Equity Multiplier = \frac{1.9}{0.9}$

Substituting Equity Multiplier from above and the relevant numbers from the question in the DuPont identity we get,

$RoE = 0.048 * 1.08 * \frac{1.9}{0.9}$

$RoE = 0.10944$

The relationship between RoE and earnings growth rate g is given by the following formula:

$RoE = \frac{g}{(1-p)}$ , where p is the dividend payout ratio.

Plugging in the values in the formula above we get,

$0.10944 = \frac{0.16}{(1-p)}$

$1-p = \frac{0.16}{0.10944}$

$1-p = 1.461988304$

p = 0.461988304 or 46.19%
