Answer:

Total value attained in 20 years = Simple interest of 20 years on the Principal amount + Principal amount invested

<em>Simple interest = Principal amount invested * Interest rate * Time Period</em>

Simple interest earned during 20 years =  X * 0.08 i.e. 8% * 20 ( Assume principal invested as <em>X)</em>

= 1.6 X

Hence,

$ 600,000 = 1.6 X + X

2.6 X = 600,000

X = 600,000 / 2.6  

= $ 230,769 (Approx.)

<em>Hence, amount Sara should put in the Savings Accounts now =  $ 230,769 (Approx.)</em>

<em></em>

Carter Company reported the following financial numbers for one of its divisions for the year; average total assets of $4,110,00
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

$1,83,000

Explanation:

Sales = 4,535,000

Cost of goods sold = $2,560,000

Operating expenses  =  $1,382,000

Average total assets = $4,110,000

Net Income =  Sales - Cost of goods sold -  Operating expenses

= $4,535,000 - $2,560,000 -  $1,382,000

=  $5,93,000

Target income = 10%  of Average total assets

= 0.10 × $4,110,000

= $410,000

Thus,

Residual income = Net income - Target income

= $5,93,000 - $410,000

= $1,83,000

A firm has a profit margin of 5.1 percent, a total asset turnover of 1.84, and a return on equity of 16.2 percent. What is the d
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Debt / Equity = 0.72649 : 1 or 72.649%

Explanation:

The ROE or return on equity can be calculated using the Du Pont equation. It breaks the ROE into three components. The formula for ROE under Du Pont is,

ROE = Net Income / Sales * Sales / Total Assets * Total Assets / Shareholder's equity

or

ROE = Net Income / Total equity

Assuming that sales is $100.

Net Income = 100 * 0.051 = 5.1

Total Assets = 100 / 1.84

Total Assets = 54.35

0.162 = 5.1 / Total equity

Total Equity = 5.1 / 0.162

Total Equity = 31.48

We know that Assets = Debt + Equity

So,

54.35 = Debt + 31.48

Debt = 54.35 - 31.48

Debt = 22.87

Debt / Equity = 22.87 / 31.48

Debt / Equity = 0.72649 : 1 or 72.649%

Retained earnings represents: Multiple Choice Amount of cash available for paying dividends. Total assets minus total liabilitie
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

All net income, less all dividends, since the company began operations.

Explanation:

Retained Earnings are the retained profits that the company keeps with itself, for meeting any case of emergency or for growing company and thus, meeting the growing expenses.

Each year when company earns profits and then, it distributes its profits in the form of dividends, the balance remaining after paying the dividends is added to retained earnings.

Thus, the entire balance of these kind of profits not paid anywhere else and also not utilized is called retained earnings.
