Answer:

Sustainable Growth Rate: 2.5%

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate is calculated by multiplying return on equity with retention ratio.

Logic behind above is that whatever portion of net profit is retained by the Company, is used in the Company's operations, which earns certain percentage of equity known as return on equity. By multiplying both return on equity with retention ratio, we assume that the practice will continue for foreseeable future and the Company will continue to grow at the calculated growth rate.

Growth rate = Retention ratio * return on equity

Retention ratio = 50%

Return on equity = Net profit available for distribution / Opening equity

Return on Equity = (25,000 * 10%) / 50,000

Return on Equity = 5%

Growth Rate = 5% * 50%

Growth Rate = 2.5%

Madison Corporation sells three products (M, N, and O) in the following mix: 3:1:2. Unit price and cost data are: M N O Unit sal
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The answer is 629,000.

Explanation:

  • For each unit of M sold, the price is 7 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 4;
  • For each unit of N sold, the price is 4 and the cost is 2, so the contribution margin is 2;
  • For each unit of O sold, the price is 6 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 3;
  • With the mix, 1 unit of sale contributes (contribution per mix) 3*M+1*N+2*O = 3*4+1*2+2*3 = 20

For covering the 340,000 of fixed costs, you have to sale 340,000/20 units. That's equal to 17,000 units.

Each unit of sales is equal to (price per mix) 7*M+4*N+6*O = 7*3+4*1+6*2 = 37. So, with 17,000 units, the total sales will be 17,000 * 37 = 629,000.

Dustin and Quinn were given an apple pie and a chocolate cake, and need to divide them. Dustin values the apple pie at $6 and th
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Quinn values the apple pie at $4 and the chocolate cake at $10 = total $14

  1. since one "half" will only be chocolate, he needs $7 out of chocolate = 7/10 of the chocolate cake.
  2. the other "half" will include 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $10) + $4 = $3 + $4 = $7

If Dustin chooses the second "half" he will receive 3/10 of chocolate cake and the whole apple pie = (3/10 x $4) + $6 = $1.20 + $6 = $7.20

The problem with bank runs is not that ____________will fail; they are, after all, bankrupt and need to be shut down. The proble
shusha [124]

Answer:

Insolvent banks;Solvent banks.

Explanation:

A bank run can be defined as a situation where bank clients or depositors make withdrawals of their money simultaneously from banks as a result of being scared or afraid the depository institution will run out of cash (bankruptcy) and become insolvent.

The problem with bank runs is not that insolvent banks will fail; they are, after all, bankrupt and need to be shut down. The problem is that bank runs can cause solvent banks to fail and spread to the rest of the financial system.

In order to counter the problem with bank runs, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was established on the 16th of June, 1933.

Furthermore, to avoid bank runs or other financial institutions from being insolvent, the Federal Reserve (Fed) and Central banks (lender of last resort) are readily accessible and available to give monetary funds to these institutions when they're running out of money and as well as regulate their activities.
