Answer:

Explanation:

Adams division:

Net income - 605000

Minimum acceptable income = [Total capital employed*Rate of return] = 4000000*0.08=320000

Residual income= NI-Minimum acceptable income=605000-320000=285000

Jefferson division:

Net income - 315000

Minimum acceptable income = [Total capital employed*Rate of return] = 3250000*0.08=260000

Residual income= NI-Minimum acceptable income= 315000-260000= 55000

marissa [1.9K]

Any increase in government spending must be offset by an increase in revenue and/or cuts in spending elsewhere in the budget.

<h3>What does Texas Constitution require a balanced budget?</h3>
  • Texas always keeps its budget balanced because the State Constitution demands it. The Texas state and local sales taxes exceed 10% of the individual transaction price. The primary operating fund for Texas is the General Revenue Dedicated Fund.
  • A constitutional amendment known as the "balanced budget amendment" would restrict government spending to the amount of revenue it receives. Spending would need to be under control by the federal government.

An amendment to the texas constitution requires a balanced budget. This means that any increase in government spending must be offset by an increase in revenue and/or cuts in spending elsewhere in the budget.

According to a balanced budget, a government should not spend more than its income. Thus projected incomes and expenditures should be equal.

Charlie’s Furniture Store has been in business for several years. The firm's owners have described the store as a "high-price, h
wolverine [178]

Answer:

a. Calculate current sales and ROI for Charlie’s Furniture Store.

asset turnover formula = net sales / average assets

0.4 = net sales / $800,000

net sales = $320,000

ROI = net income / investment

net income = $320,000 x 34% = $108,800

ROI = $108,800 / $800,000 = 13.6%

b. Assuming that the new strategy would reduce margin to 20%, and assuming that average total assets would stay the same, calculate the sales that would be required to have the same ROI as Charlie’s currently earns.

net income = net sales x 20% (new margin)

net sales = $108,800 / 20% = $544,000

c. Suppose you presented the results of your analysis in parts a and b of this problem to Charlie, and he replied, "What are you telling me? If I reduce my prices as planned, then I have to practically double my sales volume to earn the same return?" Given the results of your analysis, what is the actual amount of increase in sales required?

sales increase = ($544,000 - $320,000) / $320,000 = 70% increase

d. Now suppose Charlie says, "You know, I'm not convinced that lowering prices is my only option in staying competitive. What if I were to increase my marketing effort? I'm thinking about kicking off a new advertising campaign after conducting more extensive market research to better identify who my target customer groups are." In general, explain to Charlie what the likely impact of a successful strategy of this nature would be on margin, turnover, and ROI.

An extensive market research and a "successful" marketing campaign are generally expensive. Even if the marketing campaign is really successful in increasing sales, costs would also increase. So the equation may or may not change, depending if the contribution margin of the additional units sold will be able to cover the expenses of a complex marketing campaign. If you spend $100 to earn $100 more, your situation hasn't changed at all. Which means that net income may or may not increase, therefore, the profit margin, ROI and asset turnover may not change.
