I inferred you are to the 2017 TEDx talk "Short-termism is killing us: it's time for Long path" by Ari Wallach.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Wallach, he refers to short-termism as focusing on short-term results at the expense of long-term interests.
In his words, short-termism is a problem because;
- "it prevents the CEO from buying really expensive safety equipment"
- "prevents teachers from spending quality one-on-one time with their students".
So in summary what Wallach is saying is that short-termism prevents futuristic thinking.
Answer:
$118,860
Explanation:
Gross Margin:
= Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold
= $290,000 - $100,000
= $190,000
Profit before tax:
= Gross Margin - Salaries - Insurance payment - Interest
= $190,000 - $12,000 - $3,600 - $4,600
= $169,800
Insurance payment: Only half of 2-year payment of 7,200 is relevant for this year.
Net Income:
= Profit before tax - Tax at 30%
= $169,800 - (30% × $169,800)
= $169,800 - $50,940
= $118,860
Answer:
The answer is $7,900
Explanation:
Formula of Residual Income=Net Operating Income-(minimum required rate of return*average operating assets)
Residual income (RI)=$143,700-($970,000*14%)
RI=$7,900
Further we can alsocalculate
Return on investment (ROI)=$143,700/$970,000=14.81%
Answer:
$68,475
Explanation:
Data provided
Sales in October = $249,000
Credit percentage = 55%
Following month percentage = 50%
The calculation of accounts receivable is shown below:-
Credit sales in October = $249,000 × 55%
= $136,950
Collection collected in October
= $136,950 × 50%
= $68,475
Therefore, for computing the collection collected in October we simply multiply the credit sales in October with following month percentage.
