Answer:

$44,186

Explanation:

Days sales outstanding can be expressed as the following financial ratio:

DSO ratio = accounts receivable / average sales per day, or.

DSO ratio = accounts receivable / (annual sales / 365 days)

Hence revised receivables / ( revised sales /365 ) will be our preferred formula for this scenario

Revised sales = 80% of current sales which is 0.8 x 320,000 = 256,000

daily sales = 256,000 / 365 = 701.3

revised receivables / 701.3 = 63 days as given in the question.

Revised receivables = 701.3 x 63 = $44,186

Explain why to maximize profits a firm needs to produce an output at a level where marginal revenue
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Rest of question:

... equals marginal cost.

Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.

As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.

This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.

Answer: Statement that “There is no need to evaluate mutual fund investments because investment companies hire the best professional managers they can to manage their funds “ is FALSE

 A mutual fund is a pool of stocks, bonds or other funds where an investor purchase his shares. He gets one to meet his investment goals so evaluating a mutual fund's performance is needed and must involve thorough research to lessen risk.  

 Professional fund managers do make mistakes, so it is a must that investors continually evaluate their mutual fund investments.
