Answer:

Liquidity measures for the year 2017 are as under:

Current Ratio = 1.5  

Working Capital = $100,000  

Acid Test Ratio = 0.95  

Accounts Receivables Turnover = 10 times  

Inventory turn over = 4 times  

Explanation:

<u>Current Ratio</u>

        Current Ratio = Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities

                          <u>Dec 31, 2017</u>                                     <u>Dec 31, 2016 </u>

                      $300,000 ÷ $200,000                   $245,000  ÷ $155,000  

Current Ratio                 1.5                                                  1.6  

<u>Working Capital</u>  

       Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities

                          <u>Dec 31, 2017</u>                                     <u>Dec 31, 2016 </u>

                      $300,000 – $200,000                   $245,000  – $155,000

Working Capital         $100,000                                     $90,000  

 

<u>Acid Test Ratio</u>

        Acid Test Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventory)  ÷ Current Liabilities

                          <u>Dec 31, 2017</u>                                     <u>Dec 31, 2016</u>

($300,000 – $110,000) ÷ $200,000     ($245,000 – $90,000) ÷ $155,000

Acid Test Ratio           0.95                                                1.00  

 

<u>Accounts Receivables Turnover Times</u>  

Accounts Receivables Turnover = Credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivables

Average Accounts Receivables = (Opening Accounts Receivables + Closing Accounts Receivables) ÷ 2

Average Accounts Receivables = ($55,000 + $95,000) ÷ 2 = $75,000

Accounts Receivables Turnover = $750,000  ÷ $75,000 = 10 Times

<u>Inventory Turnover Times</u>

Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

Average Inventory = (Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory)  ÷ 2

Average Inventory =  ($110,000 + $90,000)  ÷ 2 = $100,000

Inventory Turnover =  $400,000  ÷ $100,000 = 4 Times

xeze [42]

Answer:

By using the EOQ model, ray should order 22.8 units or 23 units each time

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

Ray annual estimated demand for this model is = 1,050 units

The cost of one unit carry is =$105

He estimated each order costs  to place = $26

Now,

The EOQ  model= (2*annual demand*ordering cost/holding cost per unit per year)^.5

Thus,

EOQ = (2*1050*26/105)^.5

EOQ = 22.8 units or 23 units

Sectoral shifts, frictional unemployment, and job searches Suppose the world price of steel falls substantially. The demand for
TEA [102]

Answer:

fall

rise

frictional

b. Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Explanation:

A fall in the price of steel would reduce the profitability of producing steel for steel producing companies. Hence, the supply of steel would fall. as a result, less labour would be needed, so the demand for labour would fall.

A fall in the price of steel would reduce the cost of producing cars and thus increase the production of cars. as a result, more labour would be employed to make cars.

Frictional unemployment is when labour is unemployed between the time he leaves his current employment and time he finds another. by improving on the job search website, workers would be matched faster with available jobs, this frictional unemployment would decrease.

Friendly's quick loans, inc., offers you "ten for twelve or i knock on your door." this means you get $10.00 today and repay $12
valkas [14]

Answer:

Friendly's would say you were paying <u>1042.86% APR</u>.

Explanation:

Annual percentage rate (APR) can be described as the yearly interest rate that is paid by a borrower to a lender which is expressed in percentage term without taking compounding into consideration.

Annual Percentage Rate (APR) can be determined using the following formula:

APR = {[(Fees + Interest amount) / Principal / n] * 365} * 100 ……………… (1)

Where;

APR = ?

Fees = 0

Interest amount = Amount to repay - Amount to borrow = $12.00 - $10.00 = $2.00

Principal = Amount to borrow = $10.00

n = Number of days in the loan term = One week = 7 days

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

APR = {[(0 + 2) / 10 / 7] * 365} * 100

APR = 1042.86%

Therefore, friendly's would say you were paying <u>1042.86% APR</u>.
