Answer:

Return on assets(ROA)   = Operating profit /Assets x 100

            10                        = Operating profit /$220m x 100

            10 x $220m        = 100 x operating profit

             $2,200m           = 100 x operating profit

Operating profit              = $2.200m/100

Operating profit              = $22m

Operating profit margin = Operating profit/Sales x 100

                                        = $22/$135 x 100

                                        = 16.30%

Explanation:

In this question, we need to calculate the operating profit using return on asset formula as shown above. Operating profit becomes the subject of the formula. Then, we will calculate operating profit margin by dividing the operating profit by sales multiplied by 100.

Assume you are to receive a 30-year annuity with annual payments of $2,000. The first payment will be received at the end of Yea
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Total FV= $678.615.02

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the value of the annuity at the end of the last payment:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {2,000*[(1.06^30) - 1]} / 0.06

FV= $158,116.37

<u>Now, the total future value after 25 years:</u>

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

FV= 158,116.37*(1.06^25)

FV= $678.615.02

Answer:

The amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Patent original cost = $3,000,000

Salvage value after 5 years = $500,000

Number of years to use before selling it = 5 years

Therefore, we have:

Annual amortization expense = (Patent original cost - Salvage value after 5 years) / Number of years to use before selling it = ($3,000,000 - $500,000) / 5 = $500,000

Therefore, the amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.
