Answer:

D

Explanation:

The financial intermediary function of banks means they take money from those who do not  make current economic use of it and channel those funds to borrowers who need money for different purposes.

Bank borrowers include; large corporate entities, small businesses and individuals.

In developing countries for instance. banks take deposits from savers and give them single digit interest on their savings per annum (say 4% per annum), and loan out the same funds to businesses to get double digit interest rate (above 20% per annum). The difference between the two interest rates is one of the biggest revenue stream for banks.

NOTE: While commercial banks take deposits from both retail, corporate and high net-worth individuals. Merchant banks only take deposits from corporate entities and high net-worth individuals. Merchant Banks do not deal with retail customers.

Explanation:

Let angle y be the unknown angle inside the triangle.

given

y + 87 + 34 = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

y + 87 + 34 = 180 \\ y + 121 = 180 \\ y = 180 - 121 \\  = 59

given y + z = 180 (angles on same straight line)

y + z = 180 \\ 59 + z = 180 \\ z = 180 - 59 \\  = 121

Store supplies still available at fiscal year-end amount to $1,900. Expired insurance, an administrative expense, for the fiscal
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Current Ratio = 1.67:1

Acid Test Ratio = 0.1:1

Gross Profit Margin = 66%

Explanation:

Cash.......1000

Merchandise inventory...12,500

Store supplies....5800

Prepaid Insurance...2400

Accounts Payable...................10,000

Sales..............................111950

Cost of Goods Sold....38,400

Store supplies still available at fiscal year-end amount to $1,900. Expired insurance, an administrative expense, for the fiscal year is $1,650. Depreciation expense on store equipment, a selling expense, is $1,600 for the fiscal year. To estimate shrinkage, a physical count of ending merchandise inventory is taken. It shows $11,000 of inventory is still available at fiscal year-end. 4. Compute the current ratio, acid-test ratio, and gross margin ratio as of January 31, 2018.

Therefore Balance Store supplies = 5800-1900

Prepaid Insurance = 2400-1650

Balance Inventory = 11,000

Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current liabilities

Current Ratio = (1000 cash + 11,000 inventory + 3,900 Store supplies + 750 prepaid insurance) / 10,000 Accounts payable = 16650/10000 = 1.67

Current Ratio = 1.67:1

Acid test Ratio = Current Asset - inventory / Current Liabilities

(16,650 -  11,000 inventory - 3,900 Store supplies - 750 Prepaid Insurance) /10,000 = 0.1

Acid Test Ratio = 0.1:1

Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit / Sales x 100

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold = 111,950 - 38400 = 73550

Therefore Gross profit Margin = 73550/111950 x 100 = 66%

Gross Profit Margin = 66%
