VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Suppose there is pessimism in an economy because of corporate scandals, international tensions, loss of confidence, etc. This is going to adversely affect the economy. Because of corporate scandals, the investment will decline. Loss of confidence in consumers will cause a reduction in consumption spending. International tensions cause net exports to decline.  

All of this causes aggregate demand to decline. The aggregate demand curve moves to the left. This leftward shift causes both the quantity of output and price to fall. As output fall real GDP will decline as well.

As indicated in the chapter, return on investment (ROI) is well entrenched in business practice. However, its use can have negat
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

ROI = net profit / total investment

1. What is the current return on investment (ROI) being realized by your division

  • ROI = $625,000 / $4,150,000 =  15.06%

2. What would happen to the near-term ROI of your division after adding the effect of the new investment?

  • ROI = ($625,000 + $50,000) / ($4,150,000 + $550,000) =  14.36%

If you carry out the new project the ROI of your division will decrease.

3. As manager of this division, given your incentive compensation plan, would you be motivated to make the new investment?

  • Even though the new project's return (9.1%) is considered acceptable by upper management, you will probably reject it since it will decrease your division's total ROI. When managers are assigned bonuses based on certain achievements, reducing your profitability ratio will probably result in no bonus.

grigory [225]

= [$145 + $99] ÷ $219

= $244 ÷ $219

= 1.11 Times

Hence, the value of the quick ratio is 1.11 times

Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The student who is probably going to have the most difficult time retrieving the information from long-term memory a few days later would be: “Alexander who repeats the fact to himself 10 times in a row.”  

<span>Aside from Alexander, all other students are using visual representation or other facts to help them remember the original fact.  The method of memorization Alexander doing is very prone to be overlooked since he is storing it word by word rather than trying to associate it with other easier things to remember.</span>
