A company has only two divisions: division a and division
Sloan [31]

Answer – Division A

 

EXPLANATION’

 

Given for last year,

Division A made 60% of the company's total revenue.

Let the company’s total revenue for last year be x

60% of x = 0.6x

Division A made 0.6x last year

 

Also given for last year,

Division B made 40% of the company's total revenue.

If the company’s total revenue for last year is x

40% of x = 0.4x

Division B made 0.4x last year

 

For this year,

We are told that division A's revenue has decreased by 35%

Last year’s revenue was 0.6x

Division A’s revenue for this year = 0.6x – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% of 0.6x) – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.6x) – (35% * 0.6x)

= (100% - 35%) * 0.6x

= 65% * 0.6x

= 65/100 * 0.6x

= 0.39x

Therefore this year, Division A’s revenue is 0.39x

 

Again for this year,

We are told that division B's revenue has decreased by 5%

Last year’s revenue was 0.4x

Division B’s revenue for this year = 0.4x – (5% of 0.4x)

= (100% of 0.4x) – (5% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.4x) – (5% * 0.4x)

= (100% - 5%) * 0.4x

= 95% * 0.4x

= 0.38x

Therefore this year, Division B’s revenue is 0.38x

 

If Division A’s revenue is 0.39x, and Division B’s revenue is 0.38x; then Division A had higher revenue this year.

ASHA 777 [7]

<span>The question is incomplete, here is the complete question which I previously came across;</span>

When Janice went to work as a hair stylist in Rick's beauty shop, she entered into an agreement with Rick, whereby, if she left she would not work for another beauty shop within 50 miles for 2 years. Rick trained Janice in a number of new techniques. After nine months, Janice was offered a great job down the street at a new beauty shop, quit Rick, and had a number of customers follow her down the street to her new job. Rick claimed that she had signed a contract and had no right to go to work at the new shop. Janice disagreed and told Rick that no judge in the country would enforce such an agreement. Janice told Rick that she was more worried about a customer, Treena, who was threatening to sue her because her hair turned green after Janice worked on it. Janice agreed that Treena's hair was damaged. Janice pointed out, however, that she told Treena that odd results could result from a dye attempt, and she required that Treena sign a contract releasing Janice from all liabilities before she did anything with Treena's hair. Treena, however, sued anyway. The agreement Rick and Janice entered into is referred to as?


The answer is, the agreement Rick and Janice entered into is referred to as "<span>covenant not to compete".</span>

<span>
</span>

It is hard to decide if a judge will implement a non-competition agreement. While the privileged insights of a business are important, the law additionally puts value to a person's opportunity to seek after other work. To be enforceable Courts more often than not require that a contract not to compete be sensible. In California, non-competes are adequately unlawful except if you are selling a business. Different states will implement a few provisions, as a rule the trade secret protection, however not the work limitations.

Without proposed Project​ A, a​ firm‘s estimated cash flows over the next 3 years is​ $275M. With proposed Project​ A, the​ firm
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

option B) $ 25M

Explanation:

Data provided in the problem:

Without proposed project A,

The estimated cash flows over the next 3 years =​ $ 275M

With the proposed project A,

The estimated cash flows over the next 3 years =​ $ 300M

Now, the amount of incremental cash flows associated with Project​ A will be calculated as;

Incremental cash flow = Cash flows (With Project A) - Cash flows (Without Project A)

on substituting the values, we get

Incremental cash flow = $ 300M - $ 275M = $ 25M

Hence, the correct answer is option B.

The common stock of CTI has an expected return of 14.48 percent. The return on the market is 11.6 percent and the risk-free rate
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1.35

Explanation:

Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

14.48 = 3.42 + b(11.6 - 3.42)

14.48 = 3.42 + b8.18

14.48 - 3.42 = 8.18b

11.06/8.18 = 1.35
