Answer;

Outsourcing; Production cost

Elena works for a company that handles product testing for a company based in Germany. This work is an example of Outsourcing which companies use to reduce production cost by contracting some business activities to other businesses.

Explanation;

-Outsourcing is the practice of using outside firms to handle work normally performed within a company.

For example; Small companies routinely outsource their payroll processing, accounting, distribution, and many other important functions, often because they have no other choice. Many large companies turn to outsourcing to cut costs. In response, entire industries have evolved to serve companies' outsourcing needs.

-The benefits of outsourcing include:

Cost cutting; outsourcing converts fixed costs into variable costs, releases capital for investment elsewhere in your business, and allows you to avoid large expenditures in the early stages of your business.
Increase efficiency
Reduce labor costs
Start new project quickly, among other benefits

The Alston Inn is managed by Inns, Inc. The management contract requires 6 percent of total revenue to be transferred to the rep

Scrat [10]

Answer:

1.) Inn's annual total revenue = $7,300,000

2.) Inn's annual net operating income = $1,095,000

3.) Inn's debt service coverage ratio for the year = 9.13

Explanation:

The room revenue is first calculated as follows:

Room revenue = Number of guestrooms * ADR * Percentage of occupancy * 365 days = 200 * $100 * 70% * 365 = $5,110,000

We can now proceed as follows:

1.) Determine the Inn's annual total revenue.

Annual total revenue = Room revenue / Paid occupancy percentage = $5,110,000 / 70% = $7,300,000

2.) Determine the Inn's annual net operating income

Annual net operating income = Total revenue * 15% = $7,300,000 * 15% = $1,095,000

3.) Determine the Inn's debt service coverage ratio for the year.

Debt service coverage ratio = Net operating income / Annual debt service = $1,095,000 / ($10,000 * 12) = 9.13

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The number of shares that Brick should use to calculate 2015 diluted earnings per share are 202,000 shares

You own 100 shares of Troll Brothers' stock, which currently sells for $120 a share. The company is about to declare a 2-for-1 s

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

You will have 200 shares of stock, and the stock will trade at or near $60 a share.

Explanation:

When a company declares a 2-for-1 stock split, its shares' value is cut by half, while the number of stocks of each share holder doubles.

If, before the split, the stock had a value of $120 per share, after the stock split it will sell for close to $60 a share.

If you previously had a position of 100 shares of Troll Brothers' stock, after the 2-for-1 split you will have 200 shares.

Therefore, you will have 200 shares of stock, and the stock will trade at or near $60 a share.

"While standing on a bank you wish to spear a fish in front of you. Would you aim above, below, or directly at the observed fish

arlik [135]

To spear the fish you would need to aim below the observed fish to

make a direct hit -Therefore, in order to strike the fish you should aim below where the fish appears to be. -Answer is( 2) Below; directly

With a laser, you would aim directly at the fish -Answer is (1) none of the above

Explanation:

"In both cases, of course, the light coming from the fish is refracted

away from the normal as it travels through the water surface to your

eyes. As a result, the fish appears closer to the surface than it

really is.

(a) If you are using a bow and arrow to spear the fish you

should realize that the arrow will not deviate as it enters the water;

it will continue along the original straight line path from the bow.

Therefore, in order to strike the fish you should aim below where the

fish appears to be. -Answer is( 2) Below; directly

(b) When you use a laser gun to zap the fish then you should realize

that the beam will be refracted as it enters the water. In fact, the

laser beam will travel along exactly the same path as the light from

the fish (although in the opposite direction!). Therefore, in order to

hit the fish you should aim you laser gun directly where the fish

appears to be."-Answer is (1) none of the above
