Answer:
b. Only Emerald Corporation's current ratio will be increased.
Explanation:
Given that
Emerald current ratio is
= 0.5 i.e. = 0.5 ÷ 1
now in case when the current liability is doubles , so the current assets is
= 0.5 + 1 = 1.5
And, the cuurrent liabilities is
= 1 + 1
= 2
so new ratio is
= 1.5 ÷ 2
= 0.75
Now
Ruby current ratio is
= 1.5
i.e. = 1.5 ÷ 1
Now in case when the current liability is doubled,
the current assets is
= 1.5 + 1
= 2.5
And, current liabilities is
= 1 + 1
= 2
Now new ratio is
= 2.5 ÷ 2
= 1.25
Therefore the emerald current ratio is rised from 0.5 to 0.75
And, the Ruby's ratio has decline from 1.5 to 1.25
The correct answer is - allows managers to use the normal distribution as the basis for building some control charts.
<u>Explanation:</u>
It is the theorem that allows inference from a random sample. It says that:
• The sample mean will likely be towards the population mean within a margin of error
• The margin of error is a multiple of the standard error, which is the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size. The multiple is determined by the degree of statistical confidence you’re looking for, and the normal deviate corresponding to that — 1.65 for 90% confidence, 1.96 for 95% confidence, etc.
Answer:
8.30%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital of the company is computed using the WACC formula below:
WACC=(We*Ke)+(Wp*Kp)+(Wd*kd)
We=weight of common equity=50%
Ke=cost of retained earnings which is a proxy for the cost of equity=11.50%
Wp=weight of preferred stock=20%
Kp=cost of preferred stock=6.00%
Wd=weight of debt=30%
Kd=after-tax cost of debt=4.50%
WACC=(50%*11.50%)+(20%*6.00%)+(30%*4.50%)
WACC=8.30%
The answer is D.} the inflation rate was 12 percent.
