Answer:

A) Fluctuating market prices of short-term investments may adversely affect the ratio.

Explanation:

The quick ratio (or acid test) measures a company's ability to pay short term liabilities using its liquid assets. usually the best quick ratio is 1, because it means that your liquid current assets cover completely your current liabilities.

There are two formulas to calculate the quick ratio:

  • quick ratio = (cash + marketable securities + accounts receivables) / current liabilities
  • quick ratio = (current assets - inventory - prepaid expenses) / current liabilities

The quick ratio includes the value of short term investments, and any fluctuation in their price may affect the ratio.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data (Twersky Wedding):

Size-related:               $1.15/guest

Complexity-related:   $28.24/ tier

Order-related:            $74.74/order

Guests:                        120

Tiers                             5

Order                            1

Calculations:

Size related ($1.15 per guest × 120 guests):            $138.00

Complexity-related ($28.24 per tier × 5 tiers):        $141.20

Order-related ($74.74 per order × 1 order):             $74.74

Cost of purchased decorations for cake:                $54.66

______________________________________________

Total cost                          $408.60

Charges                            $470.60

Overall margin = Charges - Total cost = $470.60 - $408.60 = $62.00

Hope this helps!

vodomira [7]

Answer:

IRR 6% for Jabob

His friend will need 12 years saving cash to obtain their collegue funds.

Explanation:

We will solve for the rate being the annuity of 3 payment of 800

and the present value 2,138.41

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

C 800

time 3

PV 2,138.41

rate ?

800 \times \frac{1-(1+x)^{-3} }{x} = 2,138.41\\  

To solve we can use excel, a financial calculator or trial and error

For excel we will do the following:

write the list of cash through the loan life:

-2,138.41

+800

+800

+800

then we write in the empy cell

=IRR(

select the values and press enter

This will give the IRR which is 6%

For the second assignment:

we need to solve for time:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

C    3,800

time            n  

rate            0.06

PV $31,897

3800 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-n} }{0.06} = 31,897\\  

 We work out the formula:

(1+0.06)^{-n} = \frac{31,897\times 0.06}{3,800}

Now we solve the right side and apply logarithmic properties

-n = \frac{log0.503636842&#10;}{log1.06}

-n = -11.77128325

n = 11.77

It will take 12 years to obtain their target amount

Frank age 63 is single and provided all of the support for his daughter Anna age 24 and her son Marvin age 6. Neither Anna nor M
allsm [11]

Frank cannot claim Anna or Marvin as a dependent.

Explanation:

Because Frank gives Anna and Marvin every support, support tests are straightforward.

Anna earns revenue in excess of $4200 and can not therefore be requested as dependent. In fact, Marvin does not stay with Frank and can not therefore be stated as dependent.

The income tax credit, EITC or EIC is a bonus to low- and moderate-income employers. To apply, you must fulfill certain criteria and file a tax report, even if you are not obliged to pay a bill. The level of tax you pay is lowered by the EITC and a refund is probable.
