forsale [732]

Answer:

$61.60

Explanation:

Equity funding need = Projected assets - Projected liabilities - Current equity - Projected increase in retained earnings

Equity funding need = $2,739 - $561 - $1,980 - $136.40

Equity funding need = $61.60

<u>Workings</u>

Projected assets = (Current assets + Fixed assets) * 1.10 = 820+1,670 * 1.10 = $2,739

Projected liabilities = Current liabilities * 1.10 = 510 * 1.10 = $561

Current equity = Current assets + Fixed assets - Current liabilities = 820 + 1,670 - 510 = $1,980

Projected increase in retained earnings = Sales*5% * 1.10 = $2,480*5% * 1.10 = 124*1.10 = $136.40

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Stocks and Bonds

Yes. It is a rational behavior for individuals with a long-term investment horizon to choose to invest in bonds rather than investing in stocks despite the overwhelming "evidence that suggests that over long periods of time stocks still outperform bonds."

Rational behavior involves making rational choices that provide optimal levels of benefit or utility for the individual. People who make rational choices would rather choose bonds with lower risks and returns than stocks with higher risks and returns.

Explanation:

Every rational investor would prefer to reduce her risk exposure instead of increasing it. Every investor is also aware that investments with higher risks attract higher returns. However, determining the certainty of the returns is difficult.

Your company has spent $290,000 on research to develop a new computer game. The firm is planning to spend $49,000 on a machine t

Maslowich

Answer:

$132,745.82

Explanation:

required investment = $290,000 + $49,000 + $5,900 + $59,000 = $403,900

depreciable amount = $49,000 + $5,900 = $54,900

Research and development costs are expensed, they cannot be capitalized. Increase in net working capital cannot be capitalized either.

MACRS depreciation expense for year 1 under 8 year class life = 14.29%

depreciation expense year 1 = $54,900 x 14.29% = $7,845.21

net cash flow year 1 = [($390,000 - $190,000 - $7,845.21) x (1 - 35%)] + $7,845.21 = ($192,154.79 x 0.65) + $7,845.21 = $124,900.61 + $7,845.21 = $132,745.82

In evaluating the profit center manager, the income from operations should be compared a.across profit centers b.to historical p

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: to historical performance or budget

Explanation:

A profit center in a business is a division that is able to make revenues independently and contribute to the revenue of the entire business. In evaluating the performance of a profit center manager, it is best to compare the performance to a budget or their historical performance.

This is because profit centers engage in different businesses and so their revenue making style will be unique. Some profit centers will make more than others because of the goods they produce or the way they produce it. It is therefore best to compare a profit center to an internal measure such as the budget and historical performance.

If the profit center exceeds either of these then they are performing well.
