Answer:

a. Return on Investment

ROI= Operating income/Average invested assets

Beverage Division ROI = 358 / (2,680+2,602) /2

= 358 / 2,641

= 0.13555

= 13.56%

Cheese Division ROI = 643 / (4,473 + 4,409)/2

= 643 / 4,441

= 0.14478

= 14.48%

b. Profit margin

Profit Margin= Operating income / Sales

Beverage Division = 358 / 2690

= 0.13309

=13.31%

Cheese Division = 643 / 3934

= 0.16345

= 16.35%

c. Investment turnover for the year

Investment turnover = Sales / Average invested assets

Beverage Division = 2690 / 2641 = 1.02

Cheese Division = 3934 / 4441 = 0.89

A machine with a cost of $75,000 has an estimated residual value of $5,000 and an estimated life of 4 years or 18,000 hours. Wha

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The answer is: $18, 750

Explanation:

The double-declining-balance(DDB) method entails computing depreciation of an asset at an accelerated rate. This method is employed when the asset loses value quickly and is expected to generate more revenue at the earlier stages of its useful life. The depreciation is higher at the beginning and lower close to the end of the asset's useful life. The depreciation is computed as follows:

Depreciation = 2 * straight line depreciation percentage * Book value at the beginning of the period

Machine cost: $75, 000

Residual Value: $5, 000

Estimated Life: 4 years/18, 000 hours

Straight line depreciation percentage : 100/4 = 25%

Depreciation Year 1 on DDB = 2 * 25% * $75, 000

= $37, 500

Depreciation Year 2 on DDB = 2 * 25% * ($75, 000 -$37, 500)

= $18, 750

In Macroland, autonomous consumption equals 100, the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.75, net taxes are fixed at 40, plan

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

B) 1,160.

Explanation:

First we must calculate planned aggregate expenditures (PAE) and then determine where Y = PAE:

PAE = consumption + planned investment + government spending + net exports = 100 + 0.75(Y - 40) + 50 + 150 +20 = 100 + 0.75Y - 30 + 50 + 150 + 20 = 290 + 0.75Y

Now we must determine where Y and PAE intercept:

Y = 290 + 0.75Y

Y - 0.75Y = 290

0.25Y = 290

Y = 290 / 0.25 = 1,160

*Planned aggregate expenditure = total planned spending, it differs from GDP because GDP includes unplanned investment.

PAE = C + Ip + G + NX while GDP = C + I + G + NX

Judith puts $5000 into an investment account with interest compounded continuously. which approximate annual rate is needed for

Oxana [17]

In the question, continuously should be annually.

Solution:
Applicable formula is;
A = P(1+r)^n

Where;
A = Total amount after 30 years = $9,110
P = Amount invested = $5,000
r = Annual interest rate in decimals
n = Number of years = 30

Substituting;
9110 = 5000(1+r)^30
9110/5000 = (1+r)^30
1.822 = (1+r)^30
Taking natural logs on both sides;
ln (1.822) = 30 ln (1+r)
0.5999 = 30 ln (1+r)
0.5999/30 = ln (1+r)
0.019998 = ln (1+r)
Taking exponents on both sides
e^0.019998 = 1+r
1.0202 = 1+r
r = 1.0202 -1 = 0.0202 =2.02%

Therefore, annual interest rate should be 2.02%.
