Answer:

Mrs. Simpson should buy less bread and more milk.

Explanation:

Besides the nutritional differences between bread and milk, Mrs. Simpson is not buying the utility-maximizing combination of bread and milk.

When she purchases bread, she is paying $1 for 80 utils, that means that the marginal cost of every util is 1.25¢.

When she purchases milk, she is paying $0.80 for 70 utils, that means that the marginal cost of every util is 1.14¢.

So the marginal cost per additional util is lower for milk.

Ratio Calculations Assume the following relationships for the Caulder Corp.: Sales/Total assets 2.2x Return on assets (ROA) 5% R
Valentin [98]

Answer:

2.27% ; 61.54%

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales/Total assets = 2.2x

Return on assets (ROA) = 5%

Return on equity (ROE) = 13%

Therefore,

Return on assets = Profit margin × Assets turnover

0.05 = Profit margin × 2.2

Profit margin = 0.05 ÷ 2.2

Profit margin = 0.0227 or 2.27%

Percent of total assets is from equity:

= Return on assets ÷ Return on equity

= 0.05 ÷ 0.13

= 0.3846 or 38.46%

Hence, the debt is as follows:

Debt = Assets - equity

        = 1 - 0.3846

        = 0.6154 or 61.54%

Public education as well as health care and human services are the two biggest areas of government spending, collectively accounting for over half of all all-funds and general income budgets. Nonetheless, Texas has a low level of spending per pupil and per patient in the field of health care.
