Archy [21]

Answer:

New wants continue to develop and willingness to meet them is limited.

Explanation:

Scarcity arises because of -'Unlimited Wants', but 'Limited Resources' having 'Alternative Uses'.

Wants are different from needs: needs are basic but wants are not basic - eg food is need but pizza is want. So, the basic essence of wants is that they are ever increasing. Contrasting to these never ending wants, resources are unlimited & have alternative uses. Eg- Land may be used to create industries or houses, it is limited in contrast to its unlimited want.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. It brings into question the quality of earnings.

Explanation:

It will be taken as management to the action of administering in the most efficient way to that profit that we obtained. When talking about efficiency, it points to the idea that money made up of profit must be spent intelligently.

To understand that not all money from a profit must be spent on personal matters. This does not mean that a certain part is not destined for it, because otherwise there will be no motivation to generate profit on a personal level. That is why it is important to know how to distribute the profit obtained in the most intelligent way possible. For this you only have to allocate 60% (the percentage is estimated the same can vary), to spend the money of a profit on personal expenses. Then one wonders what will happen with the remaining 40% (estimated percentage)? This is where intelligence comes in to manage the profit, this percentage must be used for reinvestment and also to form a contingency fund. This seeks to generate a multiplier effect of the capital earned and also form a "cushion" (savings) for when things are not right.

This type of profit management can be applied either at the company level: where part of the profit is reinvested to grow the business. And in turn it forms a contingency fund for any mishap that can be generated over time.

Olsen Outfitters Inc. believes that its optimal capital structure consists of 65% common equity and 35% debt, and its tax rate i
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: 12.5%

Explanation:

Amount that will be raised with Equity = 65% * 5,700,000 = $3,705,000

This is more than the retained earnings so new equity will have to be issued at cost of 16%

Amount raised by debt = 35% * 5,700,000 = $1,995,000

Less than $2 million so cost of debt is 10%

WACC = cost of equity * weight of equity + weight of debt * cost of debt * ( 1 - tax rate)

= (16% * 65% ) + (35% * 10% * (1 - 40% tax))

= 12.5%
