The tragedy of the commons is a situation whereby shared resource system where individual users, who are acting by not depending on others according to their own personal gains , behave differently for the good of users by sharing or depleting the resources shared through coming together and doing what is right.

anastassius [24]

Answer:

d+n=35\\0.10d+0.05n=3.30

Explanation:

Multiple Choices aren't given, so I will just solve this.

Josiah had "d" dimes and "n" nickels.

There are a total of 35 coins, nickels and dimes.

The value of "d" dimes and "n" nickels is $3.30

Note: Value of nickels is 0.05 and dimes is 0.10 (in dollars)

The system of equations (2) we can use to solve this will be:

1) an equation involving total number of coins

2) an equation stating the value of each coin and total value

Equation 1:

d + n = 35

Equation 2:

0.10d+0.05n=3.30

These are the 2 equations that can be solved simulataneously to find the number of nickels and dimes.

Two online magazine companies reported the following in their financial statements: BetterWorth Outdoor Fun 2018 2017 2018 2017
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.

Brief Exercise 24-2 Hsung Company accumulates the following data concerning a proposed capital investment: cash cost $216,758, n
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Net Present Value = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.

Explanation:

Capital outlay = $216,758

Cash inflow every year = $43,900

Period = 10 Years

Net Present Value = Present value of cash inflow - Present value of cash outflow

Present Value of Cash Inflow = Cash inflow each year X Present value factor of cash inflows for years

= $43,900 X 5.22

= $229,158

Present value of cash outflow = $216,758

Net Present Value = $229,158 - $216,758 = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.

Net Present Value measures the net effect of an investment discounted at current rate of interest, i.e. cost of capital.

Final Answer

Net Present Value = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.
