Answer:
B.9.0%
Explanation:
The Return on investment (ROI) of any entity/corporation/firm can be calculated using the following mentioned formula:
ROI=Net operating income/cost of investment
Assuming in this question
Cost of investment =average operating assets=$504,000
Net operating income=$45,360
ROI=$45,360/$504,000=9%
So based on the above discussion the answer is B.9.0%
Answer:
The quantity demanded will decrease by 2%.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the elasticity formula as follows:
e = Percentage change in quantity demanded change / Percentage change in price ........ (1)
Where;
e = elasticity of demand for college textbooks = -0.1
Percentage change in quantity demanded change = ?
Percentage change in price = 20%
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for Percentage change in quantity demanded change
-0.1 = Percentage change in quantity demanded change / 20%
Percentage change in quantity demanded change = -0.1 * 20% = -0.02, or -2%
Since the Percentage change in quantity demanded change is negative 2%, it implies that the quantity demanded will decrease by 2%.
Answer:
C) The theory of Comparative Advantage
Explanation:
The theory of Comparative Advantage is a theory of international trade and it comes into effect in a situation where the <u>opportunity cost of producing a good or offering by a service by a country is lower than that of other countries. </u>
Specifically, to understand the theory of comparative advantage the opportunity cost of production or offering a service has to be measured in terms of the trade off between those countries. It simply means when a country has the comparative advantage then it derives more benefits from other countries buying its products as compared to buying their products and vice versa.
In the question, the European Union has the Comparative advantage over South Africa because the trade-off between buying South Africa's edible fruits and nuts and selling other products to South Africa benefits the European countries.
European countries derive more benefits because South Africa buys their goods at a cost higher than it takes them to produce while they buy at the normal cost from South Africa. The <u>trade-off benefits Europe </u>

Answer:
Pembroke= $105,000
Multinomah= $120,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The materials used by the Multinomah Division of Isbister Company are currently purchased from outside suppliers at $90 per unit. These same materials are produced by the Pembroke Division.
The Pembroke Division can produce the materials needed by the Multinomah Division at a variable cost of $75 per unit. The division is currently producing 120,000 units and has capacity of 150,000 units. The two divisions have recently negotiated a transfer price of $82 per unit for 15,000 units.
Pembroke= 15,000*(82 - 75)= $105,000
Multinomah= 15,000*(90 - 82)= $120,000
