Answer:

2.3%

Explanation:

The computation of the actual real rate of return is shown below:-

Actual real rate of return on this bond for last year = ((1 + Nominal rate of interest ) ÷ (1 + Inflation rate of return)) - 1

= ((1 + 0.0601) ÷ (1 + 0.03)) - 1

= 1.0601 ÷ 1.03 - 1

= 1.023 - 1

= 0.023

or

= 2.3%

Therefore for computing the actual rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

Recording of purchase of supplies for future use on credit

The preliminary net income for February is $ 1,100

The net profit margin is  42.3 %

Explanation:

Computation of net income and net profit margin

Revenues   ( $   900 + $ 1,700 )                                                     $ 2,600    

Expenses ($ 200 + $ 1,200 + $ 100 )                                             <u>$ 1,500</u>

Net Income                                                                                      $ 1,100    

Net profit margin = Net income / Revenues

Net Profit margin   = $ 1,100/ $ 2,600 =                                          42.3 %  

The other entries for collections made on Feb 04 for services to be performed next month and the purchase of supplies to be used in the future are not to be considered in revenues and expenses as they do not pertain to the current month

pantera1 [17]

what do economies of scale, the ownership of essential raw materials, and patents have in common? They are all barriers to entry.

Materials or substances used in the initial stages of producing or manufacturing items are known as raw materials. On commodity exchanges around the world, raw materials are commodities that are purchased and sold. Since raw materials, like labor and capital, are factors of production, traders buy and sell them on the factor market.

Various sorts of raw materials can be employed in a wide range of goods. The inventory or input commodities that a business needs to make its products are known as raw materials. For instance, a car manufacturer would employ steel used in the construction of vehicles as a raw material.

'Retained income'.

Explanation:

We have been given that Crawford Fishing had a net income of $35,640 in 2017. They decided to pay $3,000 in dividends and keep the rest to help expand their production line.

We know that the net income that remains after paying dividends is known as 'Retained income'.

We also know that retained income can be used to pay off debts or it can be invested into business activities.

Therefore, the profit that Crawford Fishing keep to reinvest in the business is recorded as retained income.
