Assume that an investor owns 30% of an investee, and accounts for its investment using the equity method. At the beginning of the year, the Equity Investment was reported on the investor's balance sheet at $300,000. During the year, the investee reported net income of $114,000 and paid dividends of $20,000 to the investor. In addition, the investor sold inventory to the investee, realizing a gross profit of $48,000 on the sale. At the end of the year, 20% of the inventory remained unsold by the investee.
Answer:
''there will be at most as many POSITIVE rates...''
Explanation:
The measure of investments' rate of return which excludes external factors such as inflation is known as Internal Rate of Return(IRR)
It is used in;
(1). Savings and loans.
(2). Liabilities
(3). Fixed incomes
(4). Private equity and capital management.
(5). Maximizing total present value and so on.
It can be calculate using the formula below:
NPV= C(n)/(1+r)^n = 0
That is internal rate of return can be use in solving NPV = 0.
Therefore, 'With respect to engineering economics and the internal rate of return (IRR), Descartes’ rule of signs indicates there will be at most as many POSITIVE rates of return as there are sign changes in the cash flow profile.''
Solution:
Pick some smart number for x,
let x=2 (I chose x=2 as in this case monthly shipments would be X/2=1).
From January to April, inclusive 4x=8 brooms were produced and
in May the company paid for storage of 8-1 =7 brooms,
in next month for storage of 6 and so on.
So the total storage cost would be:
= 1 ∗ (7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0)
= 28
--> as x=2 , then 28 = 14x
So the answer is 14x
