The S&P 500 index delivered a return of 20%, -10%, 20%, and 5% over four successive years.
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

C) 8.75%

Explanation:

Number of periods = 4 years

Given return rates = 20%, -10%, 20%, and 5%

To obtain the arithmetic average annual return, add the return rates given for all periods and divide the sum by the number of periods.

AAR = \frac{20-10+ 20+ 5}{4} \\AAR=8.75\%

Over four years, the S&P 500 index delivered an arithmetic average annual return of 8.75%.

Answer:

Products         Selling price   Unit variable cost

                                $                       $

Junior                     50                      15

Adult                       75                      25

Expert                     <u>110 </u>                   <u> 60</u>

Total                      <u> 235 </u>                  <u> 100</u>

The sales price per composite unit = $235

The contribution margin per composite unit

= Composite selling price - Composite unit variable cost  

= $235 - $100

= $135

Break-even point in units

= <u>Fixed cost</u>

  Contribution per unit

= <u>$114,750</u>

  $135

= 850 units

Break-even point in dollars

= Break-even point in units x Composite selling price

= 850 units x $235

= $199,750

                     Income Statement    

                                                               $

Total contribution ($135 x 850 units)   114,750

Less: Fixed cost                                     <u>114,750</u>

Net profit                                                   <u> 0</u>

                                                                                                                                                                             

Explanation:

Sales price per composite unit is the aggregate of all the selling prices.

Contribution margin per composite unit equals composite selling price minus composite unit variable cost.

Break-even point in units is fixed cost divided per composite contribution margin per unit.

Break-even point in dollars equal break-even point in units multiplied by selling price.

Income statement is prepared by deducting the total fixed cost from the total contribution.

Industry averages for the following profitability ratios are as follows:

Gross profit ratio 45 %

Return on assets 25 %

Profit margin 15 %

Asset turnover 8.5 times

Return on equity 35 %

Gross profit ratio: = Gross profit/Sales * 100

= $8,110,000/$20,710,000 * 100

= 39.2%

Return on assets = Net income/Assets * 100

= $1,980,000/$9,900,000 * 100

= 20%

Profit margin = Net Income/Sales * 100

= $1,980,000/$20,710,000 * 100

= 9.6%

Asset turnover = Sales/Total Assets

= $20,710,000/$9,900,000 = 2.1 times

Return on equity = Net Income/Total Equity * 100

= $1,980,000/$5,300,000 * 100

= 37.4%
