Answer:
The primary advantage they refer to is additional sales revenue.
Explanation:
Extending credit to customers is generally done through use of credit cards these days. This does allow the customers to buy goods and services on credit and pay later for those goods.
Offering credit is beneficial for both the shopkeepers or merchants and the buyers. Customers do not have to pay cash (as they can run out of cash at times), so they buy more and this increases the sales revenue for the merchants, which becomes the primary advantage for them and outweighs the costs.
Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Accounting rate of return is determined to take the efficient business decision related to the capital budgeting and it tell us whether to accept the proposal or not. The following is the formula:
Accounting rate of return = (Average Income ÷ Initial Investment)
For example:
Net profit for 3 years are as follows:
2012 - 13 = $50 million
2013-14 = $100 million
2014-15 = $150 million
Initial investment = $200
Average profit = ($50 + $100 + $150) ÷ 3
= $100
Accounting rate of return = (Average Income ÷ Initial Investment)
= $100 ÷ $200
= 0.5 or 50%
Answer:
Arithmetic = 3%
Geometric = 2.37%
Explanation:
The arithmetic average of 'n' returns is given by:
For five returns of 5% ,21%, -12%, 7%, and -6%:
The geometric average of 'n' returns is given by:
![G=\sqrt[n]{(1+r_1)*(1+r_2)*...*(1+r_n)}-1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=G%3D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B%281%2Br_1%29%2A%281%2Br_2%29%2A...%2A%281%2Br_n%29%7D-1)
For five returns of 5% ,21%, -12%, 7%, and -6%:
![G=\sqrt[5]{(1+0.05)*(1+0.21)*(1-0.12)*(1+0.07)*(1-0.06)}-1\\G=0.0237=2.37\%](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=G%3D%5Csqrt%5B5%5D%7B%281%2B0.05%29%2A%281%2B0.21%29%2A%281-0.12%29%2A%281%2B0.07%29%2A%281-0.06%29%7D-1%5C%5CG%3D0.0237%3D2.37%5C%25)
Answer: False
Explanation:
A sudden stop refers to the sudden decline in net capital inflows in the economy from outside. This is a significant method by which the economy can have access to foreign exchange.
If the country therefore borrows internationally in foreign currencies whilst lending in domestic currency, the sudden stop will be difficult to navigate because it will impair the country's ability to pay off the international creditors it has because it will not have enough of the required foreign currency to pay them.
