A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

1. 13.8% and 14.6%

2. 13.6% and 16.5%

3. 1.01 times and 0.88 times

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

1. Return on investment = Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets

where, average invested assets would be

= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2

For Beverage Division, it would be

= $366 ÷ {($2,696 + $2,610) ÷ 2}

= $366 ÷ $2,653

= 13.8%

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $651 ÷ {($4,489 + $4,417) ÷ 2}

= $651 ÷ $4,453

= 14.6%

2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100

For Beverage Division, it would be

= ($366 ÷ $2,698) × 100

= 13.6%

For Cheese Division, it would be

= ($651 ÷ $3,942) × 100

= 16.5%

3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets

For Beverage Division, it would be

= $2,698 ÷ {($2,696 + $2,610) ÷ 2}

= $2,698 ÷ $2,653

= 1.01 times

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $3,942 ÷ {($4,489 + $4,417) ÷ 2}

= $3,942 ÷ $4,453

= 0.88 times

A profit-maximizing firm will base its decision to hire workers on the additional costs and benefits of each worker. If the extr
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is total revenue; total cost.

Explanation:

Cost reduction is one of the most addressed issues in companies. They do it all the time since it is a permanent process. This is because it always seeks to improve the profitability of the company and, consequently, productivity. In other words, try to "do more with less", which is to produce more with what you have or produce the same with lower expenses. In both cases the objective is to reduce costs.

A company can reduce costs for many reasons: for a drop in sales, for lack of liquidity, for not having access to credit, etc. And when this happens, the cost cut occurs in the areas of human resources with the dismissal of personnel, the restructuring of the purchase processes, changes of suppliers, among other measures.

It is important to know what the current production process is and, if possible, redesign it, seeking to eliminate unnecessary steps, that is, to shorten the production processes. A long production line implies a greater number of workers, more work in the process and more time in product development. It also increases the possibility of errors in the process.

To make the cost reduction in your company even more efficient, you need to know each process deeply to detect unnecessary steps and help you reduce processes and / or procedures that in the medium or long term translate into cost reduction.

Gross Profit                          261,000            297,000

Operating Expenses            137,000             146,000

Operating Income               124,000              151,000

Other Income (Expense)      60,000              23,000

Income before Tax              184,000             174,000

Gross Profit                          261,000            297,000

Ratio of Gross profit to

 Sales Revenue

2017 = $261,000/$598,000 * 100 = 43.65% =  44%

2016 = $297,000/$724,000 * 100 = 41%

Average Gross profit ratio for the two years = 42.5% (44 + 41)/2.
