The city of​ Belgrade, Serbia, is contemplating building a second airport to relieve congestion at the main airport and is consi

dering two potential​ sites, X and Y. Hard Rock Hotels would like to purchase land to build a hotel at the new airport. The value of land has been rising in anticipation and is expected to skyrocket once the city decides between sites X and Y.​ Consequently, Hard Rock would like to purchase land now. Hard Rock will sell the land if the city chooses not to locate the airport nearby. Hard Rock has four​ choices: (1) buy land at​ X, (2) buy land at​ Y, (3) buy land at both X and​ Y, or​ (4) do nothing. Hard Rock has collected the following data​ (which are in millions of​ euros):
Site X Site Y
Current purchase price 29 18
Profits if airport & hotel built at this site 35 30
Sale price if airport not built at this site 8 4

Hard Rock determines there is a 55% chance the airport will be built at X (hence, a 45% chance it will be built at Y)

Set up a decision table (in millions of Euros) (enter as a whole number and include minus sign if necessary)

Answer:

Alternatives                                          Airport at X Airport at Y

Buy land at X                                                 6             -14

Buy land at Y                                               -21             12

Buy land at X and Y                               -15                 -2      

Do nothing                                                 0              0

probability                                                   0.55              0.45

Payoff if you buy land at X = (0.55 x 6) + (0.45 x -) = -3

Payoff if you buy land at Y = (0.55 x -21) + (0.45 x 12) = -6.15

Payoff if you buy land at X and Y = (0.55 x -15) + (0.45 x -2) = -9.15

Payoff for doing nothing = 0

The best option is simply doing nothing. The risks are too high, the potential losses are very large and the benefits are really low.

Ace Company is a retail store. Due to competition, it is having trouble selling its products. Thus, inventory has been building
jekas [21]

Answer:

c. The management of Ace should consider the effect of slow moving inventory on its liquidity.

Explanation:

Liquidity is an important measure of a company's financial health, its calculation determines how well the company can pay off your short-term debts.  Inventory has a great impact on liquidity and it depends on how easily the company can sell it. As ACE is having trouble selling its products, it means that it takes a long time to sell its inventory, which does not help its liquidity since its inventory can not be easily be transformed into cash without losing its value, and that's why this company  management must consider moving inventory on its liquidity, in order to increase its current ratio, that means its ability to pay current, or short-term, liabilities (debt and payables) with its current, or short-term, assets (cash, inventory, and receivables).

5. Use the information below to answer question 5:
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) Excess reserves = 200

(b) Monetary base (B) = 900

(c) Money multiplier = 10

Explanation:

Assuming that the required reserve ratio (missing in the question) is 0.1:

(a) Excess reserves = Reserves - Required reserves

Reserves = 400

Required reserves = Deposits x Required reserve ratio

                               = 2000 x 0.1

                               = 200

Hence, Excess reserves = 400 - 200

                                        = 200

(b) Monetary base (B) = Reserves + Currency

                                    = 400 + 500

                                    = 900

(c) Money multiplier = 1 / Required reserve ratio

                                 = 1 / 0.1

                                 = 10

Anni [7]

Answer:

GDP per capta will be $54.5454

So option (a) will be correct option

Explanation:

We have given GDP of US in 2014 is roughly about $17.4 trillion

We know that 1 trillion = 1000 billion

So GDP of US = $17.4×1000 = $17400 million

Population of US in 2014 = 319 million

We have to find the GDP per capita

For finding GDP per capita we have to divide total GDP to number of peoples

So GDP per capita will be =\frac{17400}{319}=$54.5454

So option (a) will be the correct option

   Prepaid Insurance                       $30                                     -$30 assets

                   

Explanation:

Company B with the adjusting events above, usually recorded through the adjusting journal, can also be adjusted directly in the trial balance with their effects on the financial statements clearly demonstrated.  Expenses have debit accounts while liabilities have credit accounts.  Expenses reduce the net income, revenues increase the net income, while liabilities and assets can be reduced or increased as the case may be.
