Answer:

a.38%

b. No because the margin is above the requirement at 38%

c.-150%

Explanation:

a.

1000 shares*$40 per share = 40000

margin requirement is 50% so equity = 20000

1 year later price increase to 50

$1000 shares*$50 per share = 50000

dividend = $2*1000 = 2000

margin = 20000/52000 = 38%

b.

No because the margin is above the requirement at 38%

c.

Price of 1000 stock year 1 at 50$/share = 50000

40000 – 50000 = -10000

Rate of return = (-10000 -20000)/20000 = -150%

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Net realizable value (NRV) will be:

= $125,000 - $10,500

= $114,500

Normal profit will be:

= $114,500 - (30% × $125,000)

= $114,500 - $37,500

= $77,000

The amount should Garcel report as inventory on its balance sheet should be $77,000.

A company that makes organic fertilizer has supplied the following data: Bags produced and sold 200,000 Sales revenue $ 1,560,00
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The company's degree of operating leverage is closest to $840000

Explanation:

Selling price per unit = Sales revenue / No. of bags sold

= $1560000/200000 bags = $7.8 per bag

Variable cost per unit=Total variable expenses/No. of units

= $840000/200000 units = $4.2 per bag

Company’s unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit

= $7.8 per unit-$4.2 per unit = $3.6 per unit

Company's degree of operating leverage = Variables manufacturing expense + Variable selling and administrative expense

=$660000+$180000 = $840000

An end-of-aisle price promotion changes the price elasticity of a good from −2 to −3. Suppose the normal price is $34, which equ
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

MC = $17

P = $25.5

Explanation:

We proceed as follows;

Firstly calculate MC when e = -2, where MR = MC

(P-MC) / P = 1 / IeI

Here P = $34 and e = -2

(34 - MC) / 34= 1/ I-2I

(34 - MC) / 34= 1 / 2

78-2MC = 34

2MC = 34

MC = 34/2

MC = 17

Now, as we have MC, we will calculate the new price when e = -3

(P-MC) / P = 1 / IeI

(P - 17) / P = 1 / I-3I

(P - 17) / P = 1 / 3

3P -51 = P

2P = 51

P = 51/2

P = 25.5
