Business

Kisachek [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": capital turnover or sales margin.

Explanation:

Return on Investment, or ROI, measures the amount of return on an investment relative to the cost of investment. The return of an investment is divided by its cost to calculate ROI. The result is expressed as a percentage or as a ratio. Investments with positive ROI are likely to be successful while those with negative figures are possible to end up in losses.

<em> </em>

<em>To increase a division's ROI, the firm can increase the capital turnover (capital assets that allow the company to profit) or the sales margin (the difference between costs and the net profit of selling a unit of a product).</em>

Alika [10]

The receivables turnover ratio is an activity ratio computing how proficiently a firm uses its assets.

Receivables turnover ratio can be calculated by: net value of credit sales during a given period divided by the average accounts receivables.

Receivables turnover = sales / receivable

= 4,515,830 / 336,500

= 13.42

 

Days’ sales in receivables = 365 days/ receivable turnover

= 365 / 13.42

= 27.20

The average collection period is 27.20 days.

Find the detailed answer below

Explanation:

January 1     300 units at $5      $1,500

January 8     500 units at $9       $4,500

January 29 910 units at $10       $9,100

1,110 units are available at the end of the month. That means 600 units were sold

A. Under FIFO

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

        $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.   Cost of goods sold

         300 units at $5      $1,500

         300 units at $9      $2,700

          Total             $4,200

3. Ending inventory

           200 units at $9       $1,800

           910 units at $10      $9,100

           Total              $10,900

B. Under LIFO(Last in First Out)

1.  Cost of goods available for sale:

        $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.  Cost of goods sold

        600 units at $10      $6,000

        Total       $6,000

3. Ending inventory

       310 units at $10      $3,100

      500 units at $9        $4,500

      300 units at $5        $1,500

      Total        $9,100

C. Weighted average cost flow assumption: Cost of goods available for sale / total units

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

     $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2. Cost of goods sold

      $15,100 / 1,710 = $8.83

      $8.83 x 600 = $5,298

3. Ending inventory

       $8.83 x 1,110 = $9,801.3

Under perpetual Inventory System

Between January 9 and January 28. The prevailing price that will be used to sell the inventory will be the price at January 8($9)

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

$1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.  Cost of goods sold

        600 units at $9     $5,400

        Total           $5,400

3. Ending inventory

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: $1381400

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Company A is considering a merger with Company B and that A has 43,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $32 a share while B has 12,800 shares outstanding priced at $44 a share and the merger is expected to create $5,400 of synergy.

The total value of the merged firm will be:

= (43,000 × $32) + (12,800 × $44) + $5,400 - $563,200

= $1,376,000 + $563,200 + $5,400 - $563,200

= $1,944,600 - $563,200

= $1,381,400

If the month-end bank statement shows a balance of $36,000, outstanding checks are $10,000 , a deposit of $4,000 was in transit
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The amount of correct balance which is shown in the bank account at the month end is:

= Month end balance - Outstanding balance + Deposit in transit at month end + Check which was erroneously charged by bank

= $36,000 - $10,000 + $4,000 + $600

= $26,000 + $4,600

= $30,600

Therefore, the month end balance amounts to $30,600 in the bank account.
