Answer: (a) 12.5%;
(b) $153 million
Explanation:
Given that,
Campus Division of All-States Bank,
Assets = $1,800 million
Division profits = $225 million
Cost of capital = 4 percent
(a) Divisional ROI = 
= 
= 12.5%
(b) Divisional RI = Profits - Assets × cost of capital
= $225 million - $1,800 million × 0.04(4%)

= $153 million
Answer: A. Increase / Appreciate / Depreciate
Explanation:
If disposable income increases more in South Africa than it does in the U.S., assuming the U.S. is a trading partner to SA, they will export more goods to SA because South Africans will demand more goods and services as they can afford to.
This will lead to a higher demand for the U.S. dollar which is the price that the U.S. goods will be denominated in and a higher demand for the dollar will make it appreciate.
The South Africa rand will depreciate because there is less demand for it relative to the U.S. dollar.
Answer:
$114,100
Explanation:
Data provided:
corporation's net operating income = $11,500
FE Division's divisional segment margin = $80,100
GBI Division's divisional segment margin = $45,500
Now,
the total segment margin
= ( FE Division's divisional segment margin ) + ( GBI Division's divisional segment margin )
on substituting the respective values, we get
the total segment margin = $80,100 + $45,500 = $125,600
Thus,
the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions will be calculated as:
= the total segment margin -corporation's net operating income
on substituting the respective values, we get
= $125,600 - $11,500
= $114,100
Answer:
2.8%
Explanation:
The formula to calculate value of a perpetuity is as follow:
V = Annuity payment in year 1 / (r-g)
V: Value of the perpetuity
r: Discount rate
g: Growth rate (missing value)
By inputting numbers into the formula, we have:
6225.81 = 386 / (0.09 - g)
--> g = 2.8%
