Answer:

The Answer is B. Quantitative data

Explanation:

The testing on the golf club, determined a improvement in the driving distance and this was measured numerically and showed in form of a percentage in comparison with average measurements.

When the information is presented with numerical data support, we can say its a quantitative data, because it tells us "how much?".

When the information is presented just with adjetives, telling us about the performance its a qualitative data, because it tell us "how things happened?"

A control variable is the data that is going to modified in order to see changes is the independent variable. In this case, the control variable  could be the weight of the club (assumption), and the independent variable the driving distance data(not percentage).

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

WACC 13.85600%

Explanation:

First we calculate Eastern Pizza CAPM:

Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)

risk free = 0.08

market rate = 0.12

premium market = (market rate - risk free) 0.04

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 2

Ke= 0.08 + 2 (0.04)

Ke 0.16000

Then we solve for WACC

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})

Ke 0.16000

Equity weight 0.8

Kd 0.08

Debt Weight 0.2

t 0.34

WACC = 0.16(0.8) + 0.08(1-0.34)(0.2)

WACC 13.85600%

The company will use the data on eastern Pizza to evualuate project presented to it. Also, it will  consider the new tax rate to determinate the tax shield.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In 2016, Carow sold 3,000 units, at $500 each. Variable expenses were $250 per unit, and fixed expenses were $500,000.

The same selling price is expected for 2017. Carow is tentatively planning to invest in equipment, that would increase fixed costs by 20% while decreasing variable costs per unit by 20%.

First, we need to calculate the ner fixed and variable costs:

Fixed costs= 500,000*1.20= $600,000

Variable costs= 250*0.8= $200

Now, we can calculate the break-even point:

Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Break-even point= 600,000 / (500 - 200)= 2,000 units
