The answer that best complete the blank provided above is the term CANNIBALIZATION. Product cannibalization happens when a new product that is being introduced by the same producer, eats up the sales of the other products that exist in the same market resulting in the decrease of the overall sales.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
DOL = Percentage change in EBIT / percentage change in sales
EPS = {(EBIT - Interest) × (1 - T) } / Shares
The firm has no debt, so interest would be zero
EPS = EBIT × (1 - T) / Shares.
Tax rate and number of outstanding shares remain unchanged.
Percentage Change in EPS = EBIT.
Percentage Change in EPS = (6.5 / 4) - 1 = 0.625 = 62.5%
EBIT = 62.5%
Percentage change in sales= 20%
DOL = 62.5% / 20% = 3.13
Answer:
7.3%; 12.17%; 0.6 times; 15.95%
Explanation:
Return on assets:
= Net Income ÷ Average total assets
= ($65,700 ÷ $900,000) × 100
=
7.3%
Profit Margin:
= Net Income ÷ Net Sales
= ($65,700 ÷ $540,000) × 100
= 12.17%
Asset Turnover:
= Net Sales ÷ Average Total Assets
= $540,000 ÷ $900,000
= 0.6 times
Return on Equity:
= Net Income before dividend ÷ Equity
= [($65,700 + $30,000) ÷ $600,000] × 100
= ($95,700 ÷ $600,000] × 100
= 15.95%
Answer:
PV = $27,263.15
It will be needed to deposit the lump sum of $27,263.15
Explanation:
The question is asking for how much will you need to deposit in a lump sum today to withdraw for seven years the sum of $5,600 with an interest rate of 10%
In other words it is asking us for the preset value of an annuity of $5,600 with interest of 10%
Using the present value of an annuity formula of $1 we can solve for the present value of that annuity, which is the amount needed to generate this annuity
We post our knows value and solve it:
PV = $27,263.15
Answer:
Risk of a bad investment
Explanation:
When an investor is calculating an investment's interest rate, he/she must include all brokerage commissions and fees
, inflation rate (interest rate must exceed the inflation rate) and the investor's opportunity cost.
Investors are risk adverse, which means that a risky investment should yield a higher return. That could be considered a rational investment rule, but it is not included in the calculation of the interest rate.
