Answer:

The answer is: C) Many decisions are made on the margin.

Explanation:

In order to determine which actions Maria should undertake, she must first do a benefit cost analysis. The actions that generate more benefits than costs should be taken. If she want to maximize her benefits from her available resources (training time), she should chose the actions whose marginal benefits exceed their marginal costs.

Maria should spend as much time in the pool as possible, as long as it doesn´t hurt her total performance including her running and biking performance.

Three people invest in a business. The first two invest in the ratio 2:3, and the third person
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$15 million

Explanation:

The three investors' total investments would add up to  100% or 1.

The first two invested in the ration of 2:3

It means ;

Investor 1:  2/5

Investor 2: 3/5

If investor 3 invested twice as investor 1 and 2, then we can deduce that he invested ( 2/5 + 3/5) x 2

the  new denominator is 10, meaning

Investor 1 had 2/10,

investor 2 had 3/10

investor 3 had 5/10

If total investments were $30 million, then the highest investor invested

5/10 x $30million

=0.5 x $30 million

=$15 million

The following is a condensed version of the comparative balance sheets for Pearl Corporation for the last two years at December
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Balance Sheets    

2020          2019                Deviation  

$292,050 $128,700  $163,350        Cash

$163,350   Cash Flow Ind Method  

$264,000   Net Income  

$28,050   Depreciation  

-$49,500   Dividends  

$36,300   Investments  

$8,250           Accounts Receivable  

-$28,050   Current Liabilities  

-$95,700   Property and Equipment  

Explanation:

To prepare the statement of cashflow it's necessary to calculate the difference between the balance on each year.

First we need the value of the Net Income and Depreciation of the year as initial value of the cash flow ($264,000+$28,050),  

then we deduct the amount of dividends paid during the year (-$49,500).  

Then we begin to calculate the Assets section, everytime that the Assets are higher than the past year we have to put money  

from the cash flow to compensate the assets increase and vice versa, with exception of the Cash Accounts that we are calculating.

Per Example: Accounts Receivable +$8,250 and Investments +$36,300.

Property decreased Cash flow which means that we buy some assets (-$97,500 )

Then with the Liabilities we do the same but in this case an increase in the liabilities means we have more money to our cash flow,

per example, an increase in the accounts payable means that we paid less to our suppliers so we have the money in the cash accounts.  

Total Current Liabilities decrease $28,050 , we paid more liabilities than the past year, so we have to use cash.  

To complete the cash flow statement  it's necessary that the amount of the statement be equal to the deviation in the cash account between the past year and the current one

If an individual investor uses the services of a broker to buy and sell stocks that are currently being traded in the stock mark
sergejj [24]

Answer:

a. False

Explanation:

A "primary transaction" refers to the selling of <em>new stocks and bonds</em> for the first time towards the public. A great example of this is the "Initial Public Offering" <em>(IPO)</em> which allows "public share issuance."

On the other hand, a "secondary transaction" refers to the<em> trading of investors among themselves.</em> There is no involvement of the issuing companies here. So, this means that if an investor uses the services of a broker to buy and sell stocks that are currently being traded in the stock market,<u> the transaction</u><u> doesn't directly involve the issuing compan</u><u>y.</u> This kind of transaction is then called "secondary."

So, this explains the answer.
