Answer:

70 tickets were sold to student and 130 tickets were sold to adults

Explanation:

Let the number of tickets purchased by students be "X" and the number of tickets purchased by adults  be "Y"

Given

Total number of tickets sold = 200

Total amount collected by selling 200 tickets = 1485 dollar

Cost of one ticket of student = 4.5 dollar

Cost of one ticket of adult = 9 dollar

Two equation are as follows

X + Y = 200\\ ------Eq (1)

4.5 X + 9 Y =1485 -------- Eq (2)

Multiplying eq (1) by 9 and subtracting from equation 2 we get

4.5 X - 9 X + 9Y -9Y = 1485 - (200* 9)\\-4.5 X = -315\\X = 70

Substituting the value of X in equation 1 we get

70 + Y = 200\\Y = 200 -70 \\Y = 130

Therefore, 70 tickets were sold to student and 130 tickets were sold to adults

A firm has a profit margin of 5.1 percent, a total asset turnover of 1.84, and a return on equity of 16.2 percent. What is the d
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Debt / Equity = 0.72649 : 1 or 72.649%

Explanation:

The ROE or return on equity can be calculated using the Du Pont equation. It breaks the ROE into three components. The formula for ROE under Du Pont is,

ROE = Net Income / Sales * Sales / Total Assets * Total Assets / Shareholder's equity

or

ROE = Net Income / Total equity

Assuming that sales is $100.

Net Income = 100 * 0.051 = 5.1

Total Assets = 100 / 1.84

Total Assets = 54.35

0.162 = 5.1 / Total equity

Total Equity = 5.1 / 0.162

Total Equity = 31.48

We know that Assets = Debt + Equity

So,

54.35 = Debt + 31.48

Debt = 54.35 - 31.48

Debt = 22.87

Debt / Equity = 22.87 / 31.48

Debt / Equity = 0.72649 : 1 or 72.649%

The changes in account balances of the Vel Corporation during Year 6 are presented below: Increase Assets $356,000 Liabilities 1
zzz [600]

Answer:

b. $ 36,000

Explanation:

The fundamental accounting equation is

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders Equity

Per the data provided in the question regarding changes in account balances

$ 356,000 = $108,000 + (240,000+24,000)

$ 356,000 = $ 372,000

= - ($ 14,000)

Since the data provides that a dividend payment of $ 52,000 has been made, we have to add it to our differential balance to get the income for the year.

$ - 14,000 + $ 52,000  = $ 36,000
