Answer:

True, each SBU pursues it's own distinct mission and often develops it's own plans independently

Explanation:

A Strategic Business Unit refers to a fully functional unit of a business which operates independently and like a fully functional business has it's own departments which act independently from the business to which an SBU reports.

Often, companies which produce multiple different products gradually set up an SBU for those products which have successfully created a distinct identity, separate from the main company.

The purpose of setting up an SBU is for better tracking of revenues and costs associated with the SBU.

So each SBU has it's own distinct mission i.e it's objectives and how(ways by which) it shall achieve those objectives. The plans for achievement of such objectives are devised accordingly.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Approximately 18.64% of this economy's income is held by the poorest 40% of the population.

Explanation:

In an economy of 10 individuals, the poorest 40% of the population means the poorest 4 individuals.

from the table, the poorest 4 individuals are:

Anna, Walter, Bob and Steve.

total income of the poorest 4 individuals = $100 + $200 + $300 + $500

= $1,100

total income of all the individuals in the population = $1000 + $300 + $800 + $700 + $200 + $600 + $500 + $100 + $800 + $900

= $5,900

The percentage of the economy's income held by the poorest 40% is given by:

= [(total income of the poorest 4 individuals)/(total income of all the individuals in the population)]*100

= [($1,100)/$5900]*100

= 18.64%

Therefore, Approximately 18.64% of this economy's income is held by the poorest 40% of the population.

Question

Justin Time Guitars manufactures electric guitars. The following data relate to the standards for direct labor: Standard direct labor hours per guitar Standard direct labor rate per hour Justin Time had the following actual results for March: Actual direct labor hours Actual total direct labor cost Actual number of guitars produced What is the direct labor efficiency variance for March?

standard Ditect labour hour 3.5

Standard direct labour rate $17

Actual direct labour hour 650

Actual direct labour cost 26200

Actual number of guitars produced - 525

Answer

Efficiency variance =$20,187.5

Explanation

Labour efficiency variance is the difference between the actual time taken to achieve a given production output less the standard hours allowed for same multiplied by the standard labour rate

Hours

525 units should have taken (525× 3.5) = 1,837.5

but did take 650

efficiency variance (hours) 1187.5 favorable

standard labor rate × $ 17

Efficiency variance ($) $20,187.5 favorable

Efficiency variance =$20,187.5

Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.18 mill

andre [41]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

1. If the tax rate is 24 percent, what is the project’s Year 0 net cash flow?

A. Year 1.

B. Year 2.

C. Year 3

Year 0 cash flow = - initial fixed asset investment - initial investment in net working capital = $2,180,000 + $290,000 = $2,470,000

Annual depreciation expenses = 2,470,000 / 3 = $823,333

A. Year 1 cash flow = (Sales - costs - depreciation)(1 - tax) + depreciation = (1,730,000 - 636,000 - 823,333)(1 - 0.24) + 823,333 = $1,029,039.92

B. Year 2 cash flow = $1,029,039.92

C. Non operating year 3 cash flow = Market value + Net working capital - tax(market value - book value) = 240,000 + 290,000 - 0.24(240,000 - 0) = $472,400

Year 3 cash flow = $472,400 + $1,029,039.92 = $1,501,439.92

2. If the required return is 12 percent, what is the project's NPV?

NPV = -2,470,000 + (1,029,039.92 / (1 + 0.12)^1 + 1,029,039.92 / (1 + 0.12)^2 + 1,501,439.92 / (1 + 0.12)^3 = $337,825.25
