Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": Parametric estimating.

Explanation:

Parametric costs estimating allows companies to estimate future expenditures based on activities the firm incurred in the past. The approach uses mathematical equations and statistic methods to support the predictions. In the process, variables -<em>called parameters for the approach</em>- are the reference for both mathematical calculation and statistic analysis.

Mays Corp. reported free cash flows for 2018 of $491 million and investment in operating capital of $321 million. Mays Corp. inc
Anon25 [30]

Answer: $975 million

Explanation:

Given the above details, we can solve for Earnings Before Tax and Interest with the following formula,

Operating Cash Flow = EBIT – Taxes on EBIT + Depreciation

Making EBIT the subject would turn it to be,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

We have all of the above except the EBIT and Operating Cash Flow.

Luckily we can solve for the Operating Cash Flow with the details given using,

Operating cash flow = Free Cash Flow + Investment in operating capital

Therefore,

= $491 million + $321 million

= $812 million

Operating cash flow is $812 million

Plugging it into the original formula we have,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

EBIT = $812 million + $309 million - $146 million

EBIT = $975 million

Earnings before Taxes and Interest is $975 million.

Sally purchased a log-splitter five years ago. This year, she purchases some new parts, gasoline, oil, and spends 2 hours repair
kompoz [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The GDP or gross domestic product measures the market value of all goods and services produced in country in a specific period of time. This year GDP should not include the log-splitter because Sally purchased it five years ago. We should include this year purchases: new parts, gasoline, oil. Also, we should include the market value of the 2 hours she spent repairing the log-splitter if she paid someone to do it or if someone paid her to do it, because this is a service. But the problem suggests that she repaired her own log-splitter, then we should not include it this year GDP.

sineoko [7]

A firm maximizes its profitability when it<u> "configures its internal operations to support the position selected by it on the efficiency frontier".</u>


In economics, profit maximization is the short run or long run process by which a firm may decide the value, information, and yield levels that prompt the best benefit.

The general guideline is that the firm maximizes profit by delivering that amount of yield where negligible income breaks even with peripheral expense. The profit maximization issue can likewise be drawn closer from the information side.
