Answer:

3. There will be less competition than when the industry was nationalized monopoly

Explanation:

Privatization transfers ownership of state-owned corporations or properties from the government to the private sector. The transfer is through the sale of government-held shares to another company or the general public.

Since state-owned enterprises are large corporations, privatization creates the possibility of forming private monopolies. The private monopolies are likely to dominate the market and stifle out the competition. They are also likely to increase prices as private business is profit-motivated, which is detrimental to consumers.

Answer:

EOQ= 300 units

Annual ordering cost= $3750

Annual holding cost =$3750

Re-order point =100 units

Explanation:

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order size that minimizes the balance of ordering cost and holding cost. At the EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.

It is computed using he formulae below

EOQ = √ (2× Co× D)/Ch

EOQ = √ (2× 75× 15,000)/25

EOQ = 300 units

Annual holding cost

= EOQ/2 × holding cost per unit

= 300/2 × $25

=$3750

Annual ordering cost

= Annul demand/EOQ × ordering cost per order

=( 15,000/300)× $75

= $3750

Re-order Point

Maximum consumption × maximum lead time

=( 15,000/300)× 2 = 100 units

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 0.3

Explanation:

The Sharpe ratio is simply used by organizations and investors in order to compare the return on an investment to its risk.

From the question, we are informed that a portfolio has a 30% standard deviation generated a return of 15% last year when T-bills were paying 6.0%.

The Sharpe ratio will be:

= (15% - 6.0%)/30%

= 9%/30%

= 0.09/0.3

= 0.3

sweet [91]

FCF is a measure of how much cash a business generates from operations, net of capital expenditures, which it can use for various purposes, such as reducing debt or paying out dividends. When calculating FCF, we take Cash provided by operating activities and subtract any capital expenditures. Grossman Lumber generated $102,000 in cash from operations, and invested 4,000 in capital expenditures, so its FCF is 102,000-4,000= $98,000. We are not concerned with dividends because dividends are not a capital expenditure.
