Answer:
ABC's retained earnings balance at the end of April is $11,400
Explanation:
The addition to retained earnings in the current month is revenue derived from providing services to customers minus the expenses such as rent and employee salaries
Net income for the month=$2,000+$900-$800-$700=$1400
Retained earnings at month end=opening retained earnings+net income
Retained earnings at month end=$10,000+$1,400=$11,400
Answer:
Its operating expenses were $ 3.588 B
Explanation:
The operating ratio is the ratio of operating expense to the operating or revenue generated.
This ratio is used for comparison of results from the operations of various industries.
Given that the operating ratio of 78% and the operating revenue is $4.6B, the operating expense T may be computed as
78% = T/4.6 * 100%
T = 4.6 *.78
= $3.588 B
Answer:
5.71%
Explanation:
The after tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)
where t is the tax rate of 35% or 0.35
pretax cost of debt=yield to maturity
The yield to maturity can be determined using rate formula in excel as below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bonds i.e 12 coupons in 12 years
pmt is the annual coupon=$1000*9.5%=$95
pv is the current market price-flotation cost=$1,100-$48=$1052
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(12,95,-1052,1000)=8.78%
After tax cost of debt=8.78%
*(1-0.35)=5.71%
Answer: will increase but this will not affect living standards
Explanation:
GDP is sometimes called an incomplete measure because there are certain measures that it does not include such as the black market.
If firms in the black market shift to the formal sector, they will now be included in GDP which means that GDP will increase.
The living standards of people in the country will probably not change however because the firms involved were simply shifting sectors and are not said to be more or less prosperous as a result. Assuming they remained the same, nothing changes for living standards.
