Answer:

Queensland 14.7%

New South Wales is 24.0%

Explanation:

This is a case of modified  return on investment since the question was specific that the  return on investment  should in terms margin and assets turnover.

The first task would be to compute margin and turnover  whereas the return on investment  would be  the multiples of both performance measures.

Margin =operating income/sales

Asset turnover=sales/average operating assets

operating income/sales*sales/average operating assets=operating income/average assets

This question also require proofing the above formula as I have done.

                                 Margin                  Assets turnover                      ROI

Queensland$82,320/$784,000=10.5%$784,000/$560,000=1.4     14.7%

South Wales$118,800/$1,485,000=8% $1,485,000/$495,000=         24.0%

R0I=margin*assets turnover

Queensland=10.5%*1.4=14.7%

New south sales=8%*3=24%

Carter Company reported the following financial numbers for one of its divisions for the year; average total assets of $4,110,00
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

$1,83,000

Explanation:

Sales = 4,535,000

Cost of goods sold = $2,560,000

Operating expenses  =  $1,382,000

Average total assets = $4,110,000

Net Income =  Sales - Cost of goods sold -  Operating expenses

= $4,535,000 - $2,560,000 -  $1,382,000

=  $5,93,000

Target income = 10%  of Average total assets

= 0.10 × $4,110,000

= $410,000

Thus,

Residual income = Net income - Target income

= $5,93,000 - $410,000

= $1,83,000

Suppose you have two credit cards. The first has a balance of $415 and a credit limit of $1,000. The second has a balance of $21
gayaneshka [121]

In overall utilization ratio it takes all the credit limits and all the credit cards. For example, all the credit limits are $1000 + $750 = $1750. and the cards is $415 + $215 = $630.

To calculate for the credit utilization ratio we divide by the total credit limits on all cards then we multiply by 100. For example,

The first and second credit cards is $415 + $215 = $630.

The first and second limits is $1000 + $750 = $1750.

To get the percentage of the overall utilization ratio we get,

$630 / $ 1750 × 100 = 36%.
