Average Accounting Return. Concerning AAR:a. Describe how the average accounting return is usually calculated and describe the i
evablogger [386]

Answer:

a. Describe how the average accounting return is usually calculated and describe the information this measure provides about a sequence of cash flows. What is the AAR criterion decision rule?

Average accounting return = average net income / average investment

The problem with AAR is that net cash flows are not equal to net income since depreciation expense and changes in net working capital are not accounted for by AAR.

The criterion decision rule is that projects with an AAR above a certain measure.

b. What are the problems associated with using the AAR as a means of evaluating a project’s cash flows? What underlying feature of AAR is most troubling to you from a financial perspective? Does the AAR have any redeeming qualities?

it doesn't consider net cash flows, nor time value of money. Personally, accounting is an extremely important tool but it only reflects a partial perspective of a business. E.g. a business might have a huge net income but if it doesn't have enough cash to function, it will go bankrupt. In finance, cash is king.

Personally, my biggest problem with AAR is that it doesn't consider net cash flows. I've been on situations where the company I worked for was apparently doing great, but our accounts receivables were huge and we couldn't collect money fast enough. My job was basically go to different banks and convince them of loaning us cash. The worst part was that even without being able to collect cash, we still had to pay taxes and that was another huge problem.

I believe that AAR is still used because of its simplicity. Also, taxes are paid based on accounting profits and many firms base they compensation plans on them.

When there is an expansionary gap, inflation will ______, in response to which the Federal Reserve will ____ real interest rates
dalvyx [7]

Answer: increase; raise; decline

Explanation:

An expansionary gap occurs in an economy when the potential output in the economy is less than the actual output.

It should be noted that when there is an expansionary gap, this will lead to a rise in inflation. Since inflation has risen, the government will also increase the real interest rates which will in turn, lead to the reduction in output.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer: Option A  

   

Explanation: In simple words, substitution effect refers to the economic phenomenon which states that when price of one good rises the demand for the alternative of that particular good also rises. For example - coke and pepsi.

On the other hand, income effect states that when the price of a commodity rises, a number of consumers might find it hard to purchase due to the price exceeding their income power which further results in lower demand.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

The company will need to sale 3,883 units to maintain its current operating income of 400,000

Explanation:

We will calculate the point at which the company mantains his current income in units at the new scenario:

\frac{Fixed\:Cost + target \: income}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}

<u>Where:</u>

Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin

625 - 190 = 435 each units contributes this amount to afford the fixed cost and make a gain.

Current income: contribution x units sold - fixed cost

                             (590-190) x 4,000 - 1,200,000 = 400,000

(1,200,000 + 89,000 + 400,000) / 435 = 3,882.75862 = 3,883 units

The company will need to sale 3,883 units to maintain its current operating income of 400,000
