Answer:

In general, the higher the total asset turnover and the lower the capital intensity ratio, the more efficient the overall asset management of the firm will be.

Explanation:

Asset Turnover = Net Sales / Total Asset

Capital Intensity = Total Asset / Net Sales

According to the above formulas most efficient situation will be to increase the asset turnover and decrease the capital intesity ratio because they are reciprocal to each other, so thses will behave inversly with each other. Higher turnover means the higher sales using total asset and lower capital intensity ratio means asset are lower timesto the net sales which is an efficient use of asset.

Discuss whether a television manufacturer should adopt a capital intensive production process?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

A television manufacturer can adopt a capital intensive production process.

Explanation:

A capital intensive means a production process in which a high proportion of investment in non current assets such as equipment, capital, etc. is used and a lower proportion of labor is used.

In a capital intensive production process, we have a low labor input, but will be highly productive in terms of output.

In a Television manufacturing company, it is advisable to use a capital intensive production process because of the industry involved. The broadcasting industry requires a capital intensive production process so as to minimize mistakes which might happen from labor.

A retired woman has $180,000 to invest. she has chosen one relatively safe investment fund that has an annual yield of 9% and an

Zepler [3.9K]

Solution:
Let the amount invested in scheme which yields 9% be x and amount invested in scheme which yields 13% be y.
x + y = 180000 --equation 1
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation 2
Balancing the equations, multiply equation 1 with 0.09 and equation 2 with 1,
0.09x + 0.09y = 16200 -equation 3
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation4
Subtracting equation 4 from 3,
-0.04y = -1800
y = 45000
Now putting value of y in equation 1,
x + 45000 = 180000
x = 135000
The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 9% = $135,000
The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 13% = $45,000

Which of the following characteristics differentiates a firm in an oligopolistic market from a firm in a perfectly competitive m

Oliga [24]

Answer:

A) A firm in an oligopolistic market has to consider its own impact on price when making production decisions

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is a market with many firms selling identical product. There are free entry and free exist and the decision of a firm does not affect the price in the market as all firms are price takers. Therefore, each firm is independent under perfectly competitive market and production decisions of a firm in a perfectly competitive market does not affect the price in the market nor will it cause any reaction from other firms.

However, Oligopolistic market is a market where there are few firms which are 3 or more firms but not more than 20 firms selling identical or differentiated product.. Firms in oligopolistic market are interdependent which implies that the decision of one firm can affect price and this can cause reaction from other firms and then lead to a price war. A price war occurs when each firm continually reduces its own price in order to increase its market share which causes other firms to react reducing their own prices and this will make none of the firms to gain in the end. In order to avoid the price war, each firm in an oligopolistic market has to consider its own impact on price when making production decisions.

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

B. process Special Scoops further into Prime Scoops and Canine Sports to increase profits by $37,000.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the decision that Farina should make and the reason is

First step is to calculate the Special scoops

Special scoops = 20,000 bags x ($7 - $1.50) - $20,000

Special scoops =20,000 bags x$5.5-$20,000

Special scoops =$110,000-$20,000

Special scoops = $90,000

Second step is to calculate the Prime scoops

Prime scoops = 15,000 bags x $8 + 10,000 bags x $6 - (20,000 bags x $1.50 + $20,000 + $3,000)

Prime scoops =$120,000+$60,000-($30,000+$20,000+$3,000)

Prime scoops = $180,000 - $53,000

Prime scoops = $127,000

Now let calculate the Profit increase

Profit increase =$127,000 - $90,000

Profit increase= $37,000

Therefore the decision that Farina should make and the reason is: PROCESS SPECIAL SCOOPS FURTHER INTO PRIME SCOOPS AND CANINE SPORTS TO INCREASE PROFITS BY $37,000.
