Answer:
Specialization and the division of labor can increase productivity.
Explanation:
Specialization is about an <em>invidivual</em> focusing on very specific tasks that are best suited to them according to their skills and knowledge. This concept can be applied to <em>companies</em> and <em>countries</em>, as they specialize on producing a small amount of products they excel at, for having the raw material, knowledge and/or technology to do so.
The division of labor is about breaking down the production process of a good in <em>different parts</em> performed by <em>different people</em> instead of having all workers performing all the tasks. The idea is to let workers be <em>specialists</em> in a small amout of tasks so that they can be more efficient and overall productivity can be greatly increased. This concept was introduced by the <u>'father of economics'</u> Adam Smith in his book "The Wealth of Nations" released in 1776.
Specialization and division of labor are complementing concepts that bring a company an increase in productivity and helps achieve economies of scale.
Horizontal integration differs from vertical integration in that it consolidates many firms involved in the same business into one giant company (C). Horizontal integration occurs when one company purchases similar companies doing the same things at the same level of production to gain a greater share of the market for that level of production.
<u>Answer:</u>
- BEP = EBIT / Total Assets
BEP = $2,451 / $43,000 = 0.057
-
Profit Margin = Net Profit / Sales
Profit Margin = $990 / $51,600 = 0.0192
-
Operating Margin = Operating Profit / Sales
Operating Margin = $2,451 / $51,600 = 0.0475
-
Dividends per share = Dividend paid to Shareholders / Number of shares outstanding
Dividends per share = $346.67 / $500 = 0.69334
-
EPS = Net Income available to Shareholders / Number of shares outstanding
EPS = $990 / $500 = $1.98
- P/E ratio = Market price per share / EPS
P/E ratio = $23.7 / 1.98 = 11.97
-
Book value per share = Shareholders Equity / Shares outstanding
Book value per share = $15,265 / $500 = $30.53
-
Market-to-book ratio = Market Value per share / Book value per share
Market-to-book ratio = $23.7 / S30.53 = 0.7763
-
Equity Multiplier = Total Assets / Shareholders Equity
Equity Multiplier = $43,000 / $15,265 = 2.82
Answer:
Price of Bond= $907.766
Explanation:
The price of the bond is the present value of its future cash flow discounted at the required rate of return of 5.5%.
Price of Bond = PV of interest payment +PV of redemption value
<em>PV of interest payment:</em>
interest payment = 5.5%× 1000= 55
PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r
A- 55, r - 7%, n- 10 years
PV = 55, r- 5.5%, n- 10
PV = 55× 1.07^(-10)/0.07= 399.417301
<em>Present Value of redemption </em>
PV = F× (1+r)^(-n)
F= 1000, r- 7%, n- 10 years
PV = 1,000× 1.07^(-10)= 508.3492921
Price of Bond = 508.3492921 + 399.417301= 907.7665931
Price of Bond= $907.766
