Biologists collected a random sample of 850 fish and 25 of them had been previously tagged. 850 : 25 = 34. It means that about 1/34 of all the fishes in the lake had been tagged. Therefore 600 * 34 = 20,400.
Answer: Based on this experiment, in the lake lives 20,400 fishes.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Zeta would have reported 20X1 sales of $4,280,000.

Explanation:

Note: the additional information in the question is correctly represented before answering the question as follows:

                                                                 12/31/X0              12/31/X1

Accounts receivable                              $1,000,000         $1,300,000

Allowance for uncollectible accounts      (60,000)             (110,000)

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

Since sales is equal to cash collections under the cash basis of accounting,  cash collected on accounts receivable can therefore be calculated as follows:

Ending balance = Beginning balance + Sales − Collections − Write-offs ......... (1)

Where;

Ending balance = $1,300,000

Beginning balance = $1,000,000

Sales = $4,600,000

Collections = ?

Write-offs = $20,000

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for collections, we have:

$1,300,000 = $1,000,000 + $4,600,000 − Collections − $20,000

Collections = $1,000,000 + $4,600,000 − $20,000 - $1,300,000

Collections = $4,280,000

Therefore, Zeta would have reported 20X1 sales of $4,280,000.

Your financial analyst calculated the following ratios for three companies: Boeing Microsoft PG&E Cash ratio 0.15 0.1 0.1 Cu
MaRussiya [10]

Answer: Not necessarily: The debt ratios are not directly comparable, since each company is in a different industry.

Explanation:

We cannot authoritatively state that even though Boeing has such a high debt rate, that it is a riskier company than either Microsoft or PG&E. This is due to the drawback in ratio analysis of bias if compared across different industries.

Ratio analysis best works when comparing companies in the same industry because their situations will be similar. Comparing across industries can be misleading because different industries operate in different ways. In the Airplane manufacturing business for instance, having a high amount of debt due to having the tangible assets to back it up might be a normal thing.

The debt ratios are therefore not directly comparable because each company is in a different industry.
