Answer: No, johnson & johnson should not double its production capacity of their purell hand sanitizer.
Explanation: An increase in demand of hand sanitizers due to the H1N1 flue will shift the demand curve for hand sanitizers to the right. The price of hand sanitizers will increase meaning that greater production levels are profitable. The firms can take advantage of this profitability by increasing manufacturing capacity. However, capacity will be increased for many years and the H1N1 flu is a temporary phenomenon. So, once the H1N1 flu is controlled demand for hand sanitizer is likely to return to previous levels. As a result the increased capacity will then remain idle and unprofitable. So, johnson & johnson should not double its production capacity of their purell hand sanitizer.
Answer:
0.69
Explanation:
From the question above on December 31, 2018 a company has an assets of $29 billion and stockholders equity of $22 billion.
On December 31, 2019 the same company recorded an assets of $55billion and stockholders equity of $17billion
Inorder to calculate the debt-to-assess ratio the first step is to find the amount of liabilities
Liabilities= Assets-Stockholders equity
Assets= $55 billion
Stockholders equity= $17 billion
= $55billion-$17billion
= $38 billion
Therefore, the debt-to-assets ratio can be calculated as follows
Debt-to-assets ratio= Total liabilities/Total Assets
= $38 billion/ $55 billion
= 0.69
Hence on December 31, 3019 the debt-to-assets ratio is 0.69
