Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

B, net income for the year was $1,200,000, average assets were $20 million, ROI was 6%

Explanation:

net income is calculated by multiplying the percentage margin by the sales. We have,

(2 ÷ 100) × $60,000,000

= 0.02 × $60,000,000

= $1,200,000

To calculate the average assets, sales is divided by the turnover.

we have, ($60,000,000 ÷ 3.0)

= $20,000,000.

To calculate the ROI, margin and turnover are multiplied.

we have,

(2% × 3.0) = 6%

Cheers.

KIM [24]

Answer:

GDP grew by $2,200

Explanation:

G<em>ross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.</em>

Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.

<em>Only the values added are summed, the cost of the inputs or intermediate goods are not included</em>

<em>In this question, the final value of $2200 represents the amount by which the GDP has increased in the period. This also can be verified using the value-added approach as follows</em>

                                                   Value added($)

Gold miner   -                                   600

Mining company : 1000 -600 =      400

Jewerlry maker  :1600 - 1000 =      600

Departmental store :2200 -1600 = <u>600</u>

Total value added                           <u>2,200</u>

The price elasticity of a good will tend to be larger:a)the longer the relevant time period. b)the fewer number of substitute go
Butoxors [25]

The price elasticity of a good will tend to be larger if the fewer number of substitute goods will be  available.

The cross elasticity of demand for substitute goods is always positive because the demand of one good increases at the time when the price for the substitute good increases however the cross elasticity of demand for complementary goods is always negative.

For example, if the price of coffee rises, the quantity demanded for tea which is the best  substitute of coffee beverage will increase as consumers will switch to a less expensive but the  substitutable alternative.

This is reflected in the cross elasticity of the demand formula, as both the numerator  which is the percentage change in the demand of tea and denominator which is the price of coffee  shows a positive increase.

West company declared a $0.50 per share cash dividend. the company has 190,000 shares issued, and 10,000 shares in treasury stoc
Damm [24]
To record the dividend declaration
   Ordinary Share Capital   $90000
          Dividend Payable         $90000
to record payment
     Dividend Payable         $90000
           Cash                            $90000

The amount is derived from the shares issued and outstanding so, the 190000 issued is deducted by 10000 treasury shares because treasury shares are reacquired by the company so it is not an outstanding share, then just multiply the answer with the dividend per share to arrive at $90000

190000-10000shares * $.50 =$90000
