Note:
I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.
The Complete Question is as under:
Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?
A. $766
B. $29818
C. $3137
D. $3211
Answer:
Option D. $3,137
Explanation:
The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.
The amount saved last year would be:
Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137
Hence the option C is correct here.
Answer:
The value of the firm according to M&M Proposition I with taxes is $513,824.62
Explanation:
Value of firm = [EBIT x (1-Tax) / Equity Cost] + [Debt x Tax rate]
Value of firm = 82000 x (1-24%) / 13% + 143500 x 24%
Value of firm = 62320 / 0.13 + 143500 x 0.24
Value of firm = 479,384.62 + 34,440
Value of firm = $513,824.62
Answer:
Option "D" is correct.
Explanation:
Option "D" is correct because When a person or member dissociates then the person loses the right to manage, losses the right to act, ceases from their duty of loyalty, ceases from the duty of care immediately if any event occurs after dissociation and the member has the right to find their interest. Therefore, from the given options it can be seen that the duty of care remains intact when only to that event that had occurred before the dissociation.
Answer: The answer is as follows:
Explanation:
From these numbers, we can conclude that USA has a comparative in producing cars and France has a comparative advantage in producing bottles.
Opportunity cost shows that how many units of one good have to be foregone in order to produce one additional unit of other good.
In USA:
Opportunity cost of producing bottles = 
= 0.75
Opportunity cost of producing cars = 
= 1.33
In France:
Opportunity cost of producing bottles = 
= 0.55
Opportunity cost of producing cars = 
= 1.8
Above calculations clearly shows that USA has a lower opportunity in producing 1 unit of car as compared to the France, so it has a comparative advantage in producing cars.
Whereas, France has a lower opportunity in producing 1 unit of bottle as compared to the USA, so it has a comparative advantage in producing Bottles.
