Answer:
"The concentration ratio provides a measure of the extent to which an industry is dominated by a small number of firms.
Explanation:
Let us assume that there are 20 firms in the paper milling industry with a total sales of $40 billion per annum. From these 20 firms, 4 firms have annual sales totalling $25 billion. With these assumptions made, we can calculate the concentration ratio as the "Annual sales of the 4 firms divided by the Industry's annual sales, and then multiplied by 100." Our calculation produces a concentration ratio of 62.5%. This concentration ratio shows the dominance of these four firms in the paper milling industry. The remaining 16 firms control 37.5% (100% - 62.5%) of the annual sales in the industry. This examples explains what a concentration ratio is and how the calculation can be carried out.
Answer:
$4.55
Explanation:
The corporate tax rate is applied to the net income, not the dividends
And the personal tax rate is applied to non-dividends income so it is not relevant here.
The stockholder would receive $5.00 before taxes. and it will pay 15% for this in taxes.
$5 x 15% = $0.45 dividend taxes
after tax $5 - $0.45 = $4.55

Answer:
1. top-down
2. apportion
Explanation:
Based on the manufacturing industry standards, Project managers typically use TOP-DOWN also called analogous estimating or the APPORTION method when there is a past history of similar projects and rough-cut estimates are needed for strategic purposes two to five years out because, as estimating methods go, it is faster and less expensive.
Answer:
The company should recognize a gain on disposal of $29500
Explanation:
The straight line depreciation method charges a constant depreciation expense per year through out the estimated useful life of the asset.
The straight line depreciation expense per year is,
(Cost - salvage value) / estimated useful life
Depreciation expense = (910000 - 0) / 8 = $113750
The number of years till 31 December 2013 = 6 years
The accumulated depreciation till December 31, 2013 = 113750 * 6 = $682500
The carrying value of the asset at 31 December 2013 = 910000 - 682500 = $227500
The gain/loss on sale = 257000 - 227500 = $29500 gain
