Answer:

They both receive capital to use for growth.

Explanation:

The government received the capital in the form of tax that being paid by the citizens. After collecting the tax income, the government allocated it to make a couple of investments such as building the country's infrastructure, providing aid for people to pursue education, and investing in scientific research/development.

Business on the other hand could receive their capital from either reallocating their profit or receiving capital injection from the investors. They use the capital for growth by reinvesting it to increase the scope of their business operation or putting it under investment accounts.

A flexible budget for 15,000 hours revealed variable manufacturing overhead of $90,000 and fixed manufacturing overhead of $120,

Ket [755]

Answer:

B. $270,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the total overhead cost is shown below:

But before that first we have to find out the variable overhead per hour which is

= $90,000 ÷ 15,000

= $6 per hour

Now

Variable overhead for 25,000 hours is

= $6 per hour × 25,000

= $150,000

So,

Total overhead cost is

= Variable overhead for 25,000 hours + Fixed overhead cost

= $150,000 + $120,000

= $270,000

hence, the correct option is B. $270,000

Pacific Packaging's ROE last year was only 6%; but its management has developed a new operating plan that calls for a debt-to-ca

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

13.75%

Explanation:

Calculation for what will be the company's return on equity

First step

Asset Turnover Ratio= Net Sales / Total Assets ------(1)

Given Asset Turnover Ratio =2.7

=> 2.7 = 4,000,000/ Total Assets (from equation 1)

=>Total Assets = 1,481,481 ------(2)

Second step

ROE = Net Income / Equity

Net Income = (EBIT - Interest Charges) *(1-tax rate)

Net Income = (356,000 -168,000) *(1-35%)

Net Income = $122,200 --------(3)

Equity = Total Assets *(1-debt ratio)

Equity = 1,481,481*(1-0.4) = $888,889 --------(4)

From equation 3 and 4

ROE = Net Income / Equity

ROE= 122,200/888,889

ROE =0.1375*100

ROE=13.75%

Therefore ROE will be 13.75%
