Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Equipment originally costing $65,000 has accumulated depreciation of $25,000. The equipment is sold for $30,000.

An asset provides gain or loss depending if the selling price is higher or lower the book value.

Book value= Purchasing price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 65,000 - 25,000= $40,000

Gain or loss from selling the equipment= selling price - book value

Loss from selling the equipment= 30,000 - 40,000= -$10,000

Rudik [331]

Answer:

BetterWorth and Outdoor Fun ROE and P/E Ratio Analysis:

1-a) Computation of 2018 ROE for each company.

ROE = Return on Equity.  It is a percentage of the net income over equity.  It is best to use the average equity, if given two balance sheets.  See explanation for further clarification.

Average Equity = Two balance sheets' equity divided by 2.

BetterWorth's Average Equity = (597,186 + 522,814) / 2 = 560,000

Outdoor Fun's Average Equity = (457,151 + 477,049) / 2 = 467,100

BetterWorth's 2018 ROE = 111,000 / 560,000 x 100 = 19.82%

Outdoor Fun's 2018 ROE = 92,420 / 467,100 x 100 = 19.79%

1-b) BetterWorth's appears to be generating greater returns on stockholders' equity in 2018.  It generated 19.82% as against Outdoor Fun's 19.79%, especially with the use of average equity.

2-a) Computation of 2018 P/E Ratio for each company:

P/E Ratio = Price/Earnings Ratio.  It is expressed as the market price per share divided by earnings per share.

BetterWorth's 2018 P/E Ratio = 54.90 : 3.4 = 16.15 : 1

Outdoor Fun's 2018 P/E Ratio = 33.05 : 2.30 = 14.37 : 1

2-b) Investors appear to value BetterWorth more than Outdoor Fun.  This is because investors are ready to pay 16.15 times more for each unit of the earnings of BetterWorth.  For Outdoor Fun, investors are only willing to pay 14.37 times more for each unit of its earnings.

Explanation:

A) ROE = Return on Equity.  It is expressed as a percentage of net income over average equity.  In the above calculations, we used the average equity.  The reason is this: average equity smoothens the mismatch between the income statement and the balance sheet.

But, what does ROE measure?  It measures a company's management effectiveness in using assets to make profits for shareholders.

Had we used the 2018 equity, Outdoor Fun would have appeared to have performed relatively better than BetterWorth over ROE.

B) P/E ratio relates a company's share price to its earnings.  The P/E ratio shows that the company's stock is overvalued or undervalued.  It depicts investors' confidence or lack of it in the company's ability to produce more or less earnings.  Without earnings expectation, investors cannot price a company's stock highly.  It is therefore a stock valuation tool widely used by financial analysts and investors.

Let L1 and L2 be two lotteries with the same expected return. Suppose L2 has a larger variance and you are risk averse. Would yo
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

option 2)  smaller

As CE is the amount which if the agent gets with certainty, then agent will be indifferent between playing lottery or getting that amount with certainty

So L2 is more risky, & agent is risk averse, so agent will be ready to accept a lower amount with certainty ( as compared to the amount for a safer option : L1)

So CE of L2 will be lower

Alexxx [7]

This is incomplete because the question is missing, here is the missing question and options:

Which phase of team development does this situation describe?

A. Performing

B. Norming

C. Forming

D. Storming

The answer to this question is B. Norming

Explanation:

In team development, norming is the third stage in the process of creating a team and making its members work together. This stage occurs after members have known each other (forming) and had solved their problems (storming). Due to this, during this stage members are able to work together and there are clear roles, which facilitates communication and adaptation. This stage is the one described because roles have been defined "everyone is taking on leadership functions related to their roles" and it seems the integration after three months facilitates communication and changes "report back to the rest of the team and smoothly adjust the project plan."

You plan to make a series of deposits in an interest-bearing account. You will deposit $1,000 today, $2,000 in 2 years, and $8,0
solniwko [45]

Answer:

$5,641

Explanation:

DEPOSIT NOW  

$1000 * FVIF 9%,8 PERIODS

= $1000 * 1.9926

= $1992.6

IN 2 YEARS

= $2000 * FVIF 9%,6 PERIODS

= $2000 * 1.6771

= $3354.20

IN 5 YEARS

= $8000 * FVIF 9%, 3 PERIODS

= $8000*1.2950

= $10360

WITHDRAWAL: IN 3 YEARS

= ($3000) * FVIF 9%, 5 PERIODS

= ($3000) * 1.5386

= ($4615.80)

IN 7 YEARS

= ($5000) * FVIF 9%, 1 PERIOD

= ($5000) * 1.0900

= ($5450)

Total value = $1992.6  + $3354.20 + $10360  - $4615.80 - $5450

Total value = $5,641

So, the total future value after eight years is $5,641
