B because this is common sense
Answer:
It will take 14.2 months before Helen pays off the card.
Explanation:
PV Ordinary Annuity = C*[(1-(1+i/100)^(-n))/(i/100)]
C = Cash flow per period
i = interest rate
n = number of payments
250= 20*((1-(1+ 21/1200)^(-n*12))/(21/1200))
n(in years) = 1.19
Months = years*12 = 1.19*12 = 14.2 months
Answer:
Production orientation
Explanation:
The application of Taylor's scientific management which says that their is one best way to do a single task which brings maximum efficiency and learning of the employee. This can be done by simply breaking a single task into numerous tasks and then assigning that single task to each employee. Now each employee does the same task very efficiently and the result is economies of scale which lets the company sell maximum number of products at a very low price because of increase productivity. This was the achievement of Henry Ford who assigned single task to numerous machines and human resource to do in more efficient way and the result is that we today see Ford company as one of biggest giant of automobile industry which is operating more than 110 countries across the globe.
Answer: Decrease the company's use of debt capital because it will decrease the equity multiplier (TRUE)
Reduce the company's operating expenses, its cost of goods sold, and/or the interest rate on its borrowed funds because this will increase the company's net profit margin (TRUE)
Decrease the amount of debt financing used by the company which will decrease the total asset turnover ratio (FALSE)
Use more debt financing in its capital structure and increase the equity multiplier (TRUE)
Explanation:
EQUITY MULTIPLIER is given as (Total Asset)/(Total shareholders equity). It measures how much of a company's asset is financed by shareholders. A company finances its assets through the combination of shareholder equity and DEBT (liability). Thus, the greater the percentage of debt used in financing asset, the lower the proportion of equity used. In order words, if debt decreases, asset decreases and therefore equity multiplier decreases.
NET PROFIT MARGIN is given as (Net Profit)/(Sales Revenue). Net profit increases when operating expenses, cost of goods sold, and interest rate deceases. This will lead to an increase in net profit margin.
TOTAL ASSET TURNOVER RATIO is given as (Net sales)/(Total Asset). It measure the effectiveness of an organisation to produce and make sales using its assets. If debt financing is decreased, it lead to a decrease in total asset and then increase (not decrease) in asset turnover ratio (assume net sales does not change)
We had defined equity multiplier above. If we use more debt financing, the proportion of equity in asset reduces, leading to an increase in equity multiplier.
