Answer:

C) using more liberal credit terms to increase sales

Explanation:

An accounts receivable turnover ratio of 12 means that it takes Marion approximately 30 days to collect its accounts receivables.

If its competitors have an accounts receivable turnover ratio of 8, it means that it takes them approximately 45 days to collect their accounts receivables.

If Marion wants to operate in a similar way to its competition, they should loosen up their credit terms and extend them a few more days in order to attract a larger number of customers. Depending on what Marion sells, longer credit terms might be a good idea.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The aftertax salvage value of the machine is D) $10,134

Explanation:

Hi. first, we need to find out the book value of the machine at the selling date, that is 3 years from now, and the book value is as follows.

BookValue=90,000-90,000*0.3333-90,000*0.4444-90,000*0.1482=6,669

Since taxes are based on the profit you make by selling something, our profit is:

Profit=12,000-6,669=5,331

Therefore, our taxes are:

Taxes=5,331*0.35=1,866

So, the after tax salvage value of the machine is the money you received on the sale minus the taxes you have to pay, that is:

Salvage Value of the Machine = $12,000 - $1,866?= $10,134

That is option D)

Best of luck.
