Answer:

Days in Inventory = 63 days

Explanation:

We know,

Days in Inventory = 365 days ÷ Inventory Turnover

Given,

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average Inventory

Inventory turnover = 16,936 ÷ [( $2,410 + 3,430) ÷ 2]

Inventory turnover = 16,936 ÷ (5,840 ÷ 2)

Inventory turnover = 16,936 ÷ 2,920

Inventory turnover = 5.8

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Days in Inventory = 365 days ÷ Inventory Turnover

Days in Inventory = 365 days ÷ 5.8

Days in Inventory = 63 days

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The effective annual rate of interest is 23.45%

Explanation:

Effective annual rate of interest=(1+annual interest)^365/t-1

Annual interest =discount rate/100%-discount rate

discount rate here is 2%

annual interest=2/100-2

                         =2.04%

T is the difference between the discount period of 10 days and credit period of 45 days

45-10=35 days

Effective annual rate of interest=(1+2.04%)^(365/35)-1

                                                      =(1.0204^10.42857143) -1

                                                      = 1.2345  -1

                                                       =0.2345

                                                        =23.45%

A company that makes organic fertilizer has supplied the following data: Bags produced and sold 200,000 Sales revenue $ 1,560,00
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The company's degree of operating leverage is closest to $840000

Explanation:

Selling price per unit = Sales revenue / No. of bags sold

= $1560000/200000 bags = $7.8 per bag

Variable cost per unit=Total variable expenses/No. of units

= $840000/200000 units = $4.2 per bag

Company’s unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit

= $7.8 per unit-$4.2 per unit = $3.6 per unit

Company's degree of operating leverage = Variables manufacturing expense + Variable selling and administrative expense

=$660000+$180000 = $840000

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

A. loss of current sales due to a new project being implemented.

Explanation:

In business, erosion takes place when a new product or project competes with another product or project from the came company. This "internal" competition reduces the revenues and benefits from existing products or projects. It is basically a form of business cannibalization, where the left arm takes away from the right arm. E.g. newer smartphone models decrease the sales revenue from existing (older) models.

Karolina [17]

Answer:

15 years

Explanation:

If you are constructing a portfolio to cover the education expenses of your child and you expect that he/she graduates from college in 15 years, then the time horizon of your portfolio should be 15 years since it should cover all the expenses until your child graduates. If you start a little earlier and expect your child to graduate in 20 years, the time horizon will be 20 years, or if you start a little later and expect your child to graduate in 10 year, then the time horizon is 10 years.
