Answer:

The correct answer is number "2": allow them to continue for a reasonable amount of time.

Explanation:

According to Alex Pentland and Benjamin Waber’s "<em>Productivity through coffee breaks</em>", employees who relate to each other the most are more productive because as they have a certain knowledge of each one of them, they could make better work-related decisions.

In that case, as Susanna believes in Alex Pentland and Benjamin Waber’s research, she is likely to allow Steven and Amy to keep talking in Amy's cubicle for a reasonable time.

At the end of 2009, the following information is available for Clobes Company, Snyder Company, and Welz Company (you must show y
ella [17]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to solve for this question. However I have found similar question on the internet and I will be using that data. Besides, I have attached the data used in the attachment below.

Solution:

1. The debt-to-equity ratio is the best way to assess financial risk. A higher debt-to-equity ratio indicates a higher level of financial risk. This ratio represents the willingness of the equity of the owners to fulfil their obligations.

Formula used:

Debt-to-equity ratio  =  Total liabilities divided by owner's equity

For Clobes:

Total liabilities = 100,000

Owners' equity =  200,000

Debt-to-equity ratio = 100000/200000 = 0.5

For Snyder:

Total liabilities = 300,000

Owners' equity = 200,000

Debt-to-equity ratio = 300000/200000 = 1.5  

For Welz:

Total liabilities = 300,000

Owners' equity = 100,000

Debt-to-equity ratio = 300000/100000 = 3

Welz faces the greatest financial risk because it has the highest debt-to-equity ratio. It has a debt-to-equity ratio of three. Even though it depends on the industry, a company's debt-to-equity ratio should be between 1 and 1.5 if it is considered optimal. In this case, Welz's financial risk is considerably higher.

2. calculate Return on Equity(ROE)

Formula used:

ROE = Net income / Owner's equity

For Clobes:  

Net income = 25,000

Owners' equity = 200,000

ROE = 25,000 / 200000 = 0.125

For Snyder:

Net income = 30,000

Owners' equity = 200,000

ROE = 30000 / 200000 = 0.15

For Welz:  

Net income = 20,000

Owners' equity = 200,000

ROE = 20000 / 100000 = 0.2

Welz has the highest return of equity (ROE) of 0.2.

As a result, Welz is the most profitable company.

3. Return on assets:

Formula used

Return on Assets = Net income / Total assets

For Clobes:  

Net income = 25,000

Total assets = 300,000

Return on Assets  = 25,000  / 300000 = 0.08

For Snyder:  

Net income = 30,000

Total assets = 500000

Return on Assets  = 30000 / 500000 = 0.06

For Welz:  

Net income = 20,000

Total assets = 400,000

Return on Assets  = 20000 / 400000 = 0.05

Hence,

Clobes has the highest return on assets, which is 0.08.
