Answer:

c. $24.00

Explanation:

The computation of the target cost is shown below:

Target cost = Selling price - (Selling price × profit margin)

where,  

Selling price = $30

And, the profit margin is 20%

So, the target cost is  

= $30 - ($30 × 20%)

= $30 - $6

= $24

Basically, by using the above formula, we can find out the target cost after considering the selling price and the profit margin

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The correct options are "A, C, and D".

Explanation:

  • GAAP becomes regarded as a relatively 'rules-based' management framework, seems to be the accounting technique used throughout the United States

likoan [24]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Value of investment in the beginning = $30,000

Value of investment at the end = $30,000 (1 + 0.08)

                                                    = $30,000 × 1.08

                                                    = $32,400

Interest paid = $15,000 × 6%

                     = $900

Rate of return:

=\frac{Value\ at\ the\ end-Value\ in\ beginning-Interest}{Total\ amount-Borrowed\ amount}\times100

=\frac{32,400-30,000-900}{30,000-15,000}\times 100

=\frac{1,500}{15,000}\times 100

      = 10%

Rate of return is 10% if the price of Telecom stock goes up by 8% during the next year.
