Answer:
The answer is
For 2018 - 1.5
For 2019 - 1.3
Explanation:
Asset turnover ratio=Net sales/average total assets
For 2018:
Sales - $480,000
Beginning asset - 360,000
Ending asset -360,000
Average total asset:
($280,000 + $360,000)/2
=$320,000
Therefore, asset turnover for 2018 is:
$480,000/$320,000
=1.5
For 2019:
Sales - $513,500
Beginning asset - $360,000
Ending asset - $430,000
Average total asset:
($360,000 + $430,000)/2
=$395,000
Therefore, asset turnover for 2019 is:
$513,500/$395,000
=1.3

I would ask them if they were comfortable with a fluctuating rate, which though at the moment is lower than the fixed rate, could go up in the future. I would also ask them if they needed to be sure of the rate say for example for a 5 year term like in a mortgage for peace of mind or if they are willing to take a risk with the fluctuations. If the latter, I would tell them that at any time they could lock it in for a 5 year term if they saw it going up.
Answer:
The company should accept the idea because profit will increase by $24,000.
Explanation:
A company is currently selling 10,000 units of product monthly for $40 per unit.
The unit contribution margin is $27.
The company believes that spending $50,000 per month on advertising will allow them to increase the selling price to $45 and that sales will increase by 750 units per month.
The unit contribution margin is the difference between selling price and variable cost per unit.
An increase in the selling price of $5 will cause the contribution margin to increase by $5, from $27 to $32.
Profits is the product of contribution margin and number of output.
At initial price, the profit was
= 
= $270,000
At the new price the profit will be
=
- $50,000
= $344,000 - $50,000
= $294,000
The increase in profit
= $294,000 - $270,000
= $24,000
Answer: Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
The nominal GDP is equal to the real GDP in the base year, that's why GDP deflator in the base year is equal to 100.
GDP deflator is calculated as the nominal GDP divided by the real GDP multiply by 100. It is shown as:
GDP deflator = 
GDP deflator would be used as the conversion factor that transformed the real GDP into nominal GDP.
