Answer: 30 days

Explanation: Cash cycle refers to the amount of time it takes for a business from paying cash to its suppliers for raw materials and receiving cash from its customers fro the sales made.

Hence from the above we can say that :-

decrease in inventory will decrease the cycle.

Decrease in receivables will decrease the cycle.

decrease in payables will increase the cycle.

Thus,

cash cycle =  31 days - 2 days + 4 days - 3 days

                  = 30 days

Peyton's Palace has net income of $13.4 million on sales revenue of $114 million. Total assets were $80 million at the beginning
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Return on Assets = 159.52%

Profit Margin = 11.75%

Asset Turnover Ratio = 1.36 times

Explanation:

The computation of return on assets, profit margin, and asset turnover ratios is shown below:-

a. Return on assets

Average Total Assets = Assets in the beginning + Assets at the end ÷ 2

= ($80 million + $88 million) ÷ 2

= $168 ÷ 2

= $84 million

Return on Assets = Annual Net Income ÷ Average Total assets

= $13.4 million ÷ $84 million

= $159.52 million

b. Profit Margin

Profit Margin = Net Income ÷ Net Sales

= $13.4 million ÷ $114 million

= 11.75%

c. Assets turnover ratio

Average Total Assets = Assets in the beginning + Assets at the end ÷ 2

= ($80 million + $88 million) ÷ 2

= $168 ÷ 2

= $84 million

Asset Turnover Ratio = Net Sales ÷ Average Total assets

= $114 million ÷ $84 million

= 1.36 times

Econo Nation started 2013 with no national budget debt or surplus. By the end of 2013, it had a budget surplus of $286 million;
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

-$13 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Budget surplus by the end of 2013 = $286 million

Budget deficit in 2014 = $425 million

Budget surplus in 2015 = $100 million

Budget deficit or surplus in 2016 is unknown.

National debt at the end of 2016 = $52 million

National Budget surplus/ deficit at the end of year 2015:

= Budget balance of 2013 + Budget balance of 2014 + Budget balance of 2015

= $286 million + (-$425 million) + $100 million

= -$39 million

So the government will fund this deficit by taking debt of $39 million.

National debt at the end of 2016 = Total debt till 2015 + Surplus/deficit for year 2016

-$52 million = (-$39 million) + Surplus/deficit for year 2016

- $52 million + $39 million = Surplus/deficit for year 2016

-$13 million = Surplus/deficit for year 2016

This is budget deficit of $13 million because debt increased by 13 million in 2016.

ivanzaharov [21]

<u>Given:</u>

Wages payable at the beginning of the year = $1500

Wages payable at the end of the year = $5000

Salaries and wages expense as per the income statement = $112400

<u>To find:</u>

Cash paid for salaries and wages

<u>Solution:</u>

The calculation of the cash paid for salaries and wages is as follows,

Wages payable at the end of the year-Wages payable at the beginning of the year = \$5000-\$1500=\$3500

Cash paid = \$112400-\$3500=\$1,08,900

Therefore, the cash paid for salaries and wages during the year is $1,08,900.

Wages and salaries are paid by the organization or management to the workers or the employees in return for the work done by them for the company.
