No, because consumers equate quality of batteries with higher prices. With batteries consumers believe there is a price- quality relationship, it does not make the consumers, price insensitive. Also, there is no indication Energizer set a target price and adjusted cost and quality components to maintain wholesaler and retailer margins.

On January 1, 20X8, Polo Corporation acquired 75 percent of Stallion Company's voting common stock for $300,000. At the time of
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Polo will report $318,750 as its investment in Stallion at December 31, 20X8

Explanation:

Common stock = $300,000 acquired at 75%

Net income = $40,000

Pay dividends = $10,000

Increase in value of Patent = $50,000    

Economic Life = 10    

Amortization = $5,000    

Therefore, the $ 5000 would be reduced from the net income.

Investments in Polo = $300,000 + [0.75 × (40000 - 10000 - 5000)]

= $300,000+ 0.75(25,000)  

= $300,000+ $18,750    

= $318,750

Mays Corp. reported free cash flows for 2018 of $491 million and investment in operating capital of $321 million. Mays Corp. inc
Anon25 [30]

Answer: $975 million

Explanation:

Given the above details, we can solve for Earnings Before Tax and Interest with the following formula,

Operating Cash Flow = EBIT – Taxes on EBIT + Depreciation

Making EBIT the subject would turn it to be,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

We have all of the above except the EBIT and Operating Cash Flow.

Luckily we can solve for the Operating Cash Flow with the details given using,

Operating cash flow = Free Cash Flow + Investment in operating capital

Therefore,

= $491 million + $321 million

= $812 million

Operating cash flow is $812 million

Plugging it into the original formula we have,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

EBIT = $812 million + $309 million - $146 million

EBIT = $975 million

Earnings before Taxes and Interest is $975 million.
