Answer:

B) Resources

Explanation:

Since Lavender Furniture sold high quality products and had an efficient management, it was able to acquire and manage several assets including a larger plot of land for its facilities, better machinery, more employees and a highly recognized brand name. All of these are valuable resources, most of them are tangible (land, machinery and labor), but they were also able to develop an intangible resource such as a highly recognized brand name which can really be valuable.

Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisio
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Please check the info below

Explanation:

1. For Osaka

Margin =  Net Operating Income / Sales *100

= $ 792000 / $9900000 *100

= 8.00%

Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets * 100

= $ 9900000 / $ 2475000 * 100

= 4.00%

ROI =  Margin * Turnover

= 8% *4 %

= 32.00%

Hence the correct answer is 32.00%

For Yokohama :

Margin =  Net Operating Income / Sales *100

= $ 2900000 / $ 29000000*100

= 10.00%

Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets * 100

= $ 29000000 / $ 14500000* 100

= 2.00%

ROI =  Margin * Turnover

= 10% *2 %

= 20.00%

Hence the correct answer is 20.00%

2. The correct answer is  

Osaka = $ 371,250

Yokohama = $ 435,000

3. The correct answer is No

This is because since Osaka has a higher ROI, Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income is not an indication that it is better managed

All else being equal, a company with a low operating leverage will have:
nlexa [21]

Answer:

c) relatively high variable costs

Explanation:

Operating leverage is a ratio that is used to analyze and understand the cost structure of a business. It gives the relation between the variable and fixed cost to the the total cost of running the business.

A business with a large amount of fixed cost relative to variable is said to have  a high operating leverage . For such business, operating income would  be more volatile because the operating income would not increase in commensurate proportion as sales revenue.

And a company with low operating leverage has low amount of fixed cost relative to variable cost and therefore a relatively high variable costs

Operating leverage is calculated as

Contribution /Earnings before interest  and Tax
