a. The company overhead rate based on direct labor is

= Total Overheads ÷ Direct Labor Hours

= $1,048,000 ÷ 40,000

= $26.2 per hour

b) Overheads Rate using Activity Based Costing  is

= Cost ÷ Activity level

For  Order Processing, it is

= $226,800 ÷ 14,000 orders

= $16.2 per order

For setups, it is

=  $157850 ÷ 4,100 setup

= $38.5 per setup

For Milling, it is  

= $395,850 ÷ 20,300 machine hours

= $19.5 per machine hour

For Shipping

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Apple Inc.

a. Calculate Apple Inc.'s working capital, current ratio, and acid-test ratio at September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your ratio answers to 1 decimal place. Enter "Working capital" in million of dollars.)

September 2014:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $45,660,000 - $34,978,000 = $10,682,000

b) Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio = Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 - 930 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

September 2013:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $41,940,000 - $21,160,000 = $20,780,000

b) Current Ratio  = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 / $21,160 = 2 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 -1,200 / $21,160 = 1.9 : 1

b. Calculate Apple's ROE for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $26,050/$77,290 x 100 = 33.7%

September 2013

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $14,160/$48,050 x 100 = 29.5%

c. Calculate Apple's ROI, showing margin and turnover, for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round "Turnover" answers to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROI = Margin x Turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($33,950/$108,400) x ($108,400/$120,880)

= 0.31 x 0.90

= 0.279 = 27.9%

Average Assets = $120,880 ($147,820 + 93,940) /2

September 2013

ROI = margin = turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($18,530/$65,370) x ($65,370/$70,880)

= 0.28 x 0.92

= 0.258 = 25.8%

Average Assets = $70,880 ($93,940 + 47,820) /2

b) Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities.  It shows the amount of finance needed for meeting day-to-day operations of an entity.  Working capital measures a company's liquidity, operational efficiency, and its short-term financial health.  A healthy entity has some excess of current assets over current liabilities in order to continue to run the business operations in the short-run.  Working capital can also be measured in relative terms with the use of ratios, especially the current ratio and the acid-test ratio.

c) ROE means Return on equity.  It is a financial performance measure calculated by dividing net income by shareholders' equity.   Since shareholders' equity is equal to a company's assets minus its debt, ROE is considered as the return on net assets.  As with return on capital, a ROE measures management's ability to generate income from the equity available to it.

d) Return on Investment (ROI) is a financial performance measure which evaluates the efficiency of an investment or compares the efficiency of a number of different investments.  ROI tries to directly measure the amount of return on a particular investment, relative to the investment's cost.  As a financial metric, it measures the probability of gaining a return from an investment.

alisha [4.7K]

now suppose that the government immediately pursues an accommodative policy by increasing government purchases in response to the short run economic impact of the higher oil prices <u>The output will be $billion and the price level will increase.</u>

<h3>What is accommodative policy?</h3>

When a central bank (like the Federal Reserve) tries to increase the general money supply to support the economy when growth is stalling, this is known as accommodating monetary policy, often known as loose credit or easy monetary policy (as measured by GDP). The goal of the policy is to allow the money supply to increase in step with both the demand for money and national revenue.

  • The expansion of the money supply by central banks to stimulate the economy is known as accommodating monetary policy.
  • The Federal funds rate has been decreased as part of monetary policies that are deemed accommodating.
  • The goals of these policies are to lower the cost of borrowing money and boost consumer spending.

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is corporate culture.

Explanation:

Corporate or organizational culture is, basically, the ideology of a company: the set of attitudes, habits, beliefs and behaviors of the human group that makes it up, the way they interact and the way they manage external business transactions.

It can be developed intentionally according to the direction in which the company moves in terms of style, priorities and values, or in a more organic way as a result of the sum of the characteristic features of its members and the nature of the interaction between them.

The culture of a company is reflected in its public image, its dress code, its business hours, its facilities, the benefits of its employees, its sales volume, hiring decisions, the treatment of customers and the degree of satisfaction of them and all other aspects of operations.
