This can be a deterrent for engaging in practices that are ethically wrong during underwriting process.
Knowing that they could be fined large amount of money if found to be engaging in acts that ethically incorrect will serves to discourage investment banking firms from such acts.<span />

Ralph Lauren: Accounts receivable turnover and number of days' sales in receivables Ralph Lauren Corporation designs, markets, a
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

<em>MISSING INFORMATION:</em>

   concept                     //    Year 2     //     Year 1

Sales                                     7,620             7,450

Account Receivables             655                588

Answer:

Yes, there is. The days to collect increase by 4.16 to 29.77 from 26.61

Which is a bad sing as the company delays more to collect form their customers

Explanation:

Account Receivable turnover:

Average receivable:

(458 + 588 ) / 2  =  523

7,450 / 523 =   14.25

Days to collect: 365 / 14.25 = 25,61

Second Year:

Average receivable: (655 + 588) / 2 = 621.5

Turnover: 7,620 / 621.5 =  12.26

Days to collect: 365 / 12.26 = 29,77

29.77 - 25.61 = 4.16

The opportunity cost of an item is a. what you give up to get that item. b. usually less than the dollar value of the item. c. t
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: a

Explanation:

Opportunity costs represent the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when choosing one alternative over another. While financial reports do not show opportunity cost, business owners can use it to make educated decisions when they have multiple options before them.

Because by definition they are unseen, opportunity costs can be easily overlooked if one is not careful. Understanding the potential missed opportunities foregone by choosing one investment over another allows for better decision-making.

Opportunity cost analysis also plays a crucial role in determining a business's capital structure. While both debt and equity require expense to compensate lenders and shareholders for the risk of investment, each also carries an opportunity cost. Funds used to make payments on loans, for example, are not being invested in stocks or bonds, which offer the potential for investment income. The company must decide if the expansion made by the leveraging power of debt will generate greater profits than it could make through investments.

Alex

Answer:

The corporation's current income tax expense or benefit would be $86,940.

Note: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) 2019 tax rate of 21% for corporation is used since the tax rate is not given in the question.

Explanation:

Details                                                                Amount ($)

Pretax book income                                             620,000

Favorable temporary differences                       (160,000)    

Unfavorable temporary differences                    106,000

Favorable permanent differences                    <u> (152,000) </u>

Adjusted income                                                  414,000

Tax expenses (at 21%)                                     <u>   (86,940)  </u>

Profit after tax                                                     <u> 327,060   </u>

Therefore, the corporation's current income tax expense or benefit would be $86,940.

Note: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) 2019 tax rate of 21% for corporation is used since the tax rate is not given in the question.
