Answer: ARR = Average profit/Initial outlay x 100

               ARR = $19,000/$250,000 x 100

               ARR = 7.60%

The correct answer is C

               

               Depreciation = Cost - Residual value/Estimated useful life

                                       = $250,000 - $20,000/5 years

                                       = $46,000 per annum

               Average profit = Total profit/No of years

                                         = $325,000/5

                                         = $65,000

                                                                       $

              Average profit                           65,000

        Less: Depreciation                           46,000

       Average profit after depreciation   19,000

Explanation: In determining the accounting rate of return of the investment, there is need to calculate depreciation using straight line method. The amount of depreciation would be deducted from the average profit so as to obtain the average profit after depreciation. The average profit would be divided by the initial outlay in order to obtain the accounting rate of return.

Over a long period of time Sears has slipped from being America's largest retailer to struggling for survival in recent years. W
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

I think Sears need to stop diversifying its product too much and focus on improving internal human resources.

Explanation:

The largest expense that Sears made occurred during their effort to add more female customers to shop at their place.

Sears was known for  its DieHard, Craftsman and Kenmore brands that attract mostly male customers to their stores. They started “The Softer Side of Sears”  which focused on adding more products for female customers.

But, in the process of doing so, Sears neglected their already successful male products department with a lot of employees who sacrifice a lot of their time and effort into making Sears as big as it is.

In order to restore to its former glory, Sears need to stop focusing on new market with a lot of strong competitors and focused on improving skill set of employees in their successful department. They can do this by investing in their education, increasing the budget for their research and development, etc.

Does the film titanic improve the viewer's understanding of the historical events?
Angelina_Jolie [31]
On one hand it does, but on the other, it doesn't.
If you look at the movie from a historical perspective, we can see what people might have behaved like in the actual event when Titanic sank. The movie portrays their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors during that horrible night, so if you think about it that way, I guess we can understand the event more. On the other hand though, the movie included a love story which is not really relevant to what actually happened in history, so it doesn't really help the viewer think about history much.
