Answer:

gross profit ratio = (total revenue - cost of goods sold) / total revenue

I looked for the missing information:

year                    total sales                   cost of goods sold

2012                    $7,175                            $4,365

2013                    $8,052                           $5,140

2014                    $8,268                           $5,370

   

a)

gross profit ratio:

2012 = ($7,175 - $4,365) / $7,175 = 39.16%

2013 = ($8,052 - $5,140) / $8,052 = 36.16%

2014 = ($8,268 - $5,370) / $8,268 = 35.05%

b)

since the gross profit margin ratio is decreasing every year, we can assume that it will keep decreasing in 2015. Using linear regression, the slope is -0.02055. So the estimated gross profit margin ratio for 2015 = 34.33%

estimated cogs (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x (1 - 34.33%) = $346.08 billion

estimated gross profit (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x 34.33% = $180.92 billion

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

$739.72 ≈  739.72

Explanation:

we can use an excel spreadsheet and the present value function to calculate the expected price of each bond ⇒ =PV(rate,nper,pmt,fv,[type])

  • fv = $1,000
  • pmt = $1,000 x 7.25% x 1/2 = $36.25
  • nper = 60
  • rate = 10% / 2 = 5%
  • present value = ?

=PV(5%,60,36.25,1000) = -739.72 since excel calculates the initial investment, it is always negative, so we just change the sign.

Market value per share is:
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The answer is a. Market value per share is the price at which a stock is bought and sold.

Explanation:

For shares that are listed in the stock exchange, the market value per share is the price of share at which share is currently traded. In other words, this is the fair value of the share and at this price, share can be readily sold or bought.

(b) is not correct because it describes the commitment (usually made by an investment bank) to purchase newly issued shares at predetermined price when those shares are not purchased by other investors in the market.

(c) describes a type of stock rather than the definition of market value per share.

(d) describes Preemptive right rather than the definition of market value per share.
