Explanation:

Economic question always deal with the choice in the face of limited resources, since resources are limited and humans needs are unlimited. Resources are always limited, and economics deals with the choice to administrate the resources the best way possible.

When a person decides to assign a resource to a specific use, he is discarding its use for another purpose. This is known as the opportunity cost.

Target profit a.are when sales and costs are exactly equal. b.can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation. c.equals d

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

b. can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation.

Explanation:

As the name implies, target profit can be explained to be the certain amount a business enterprise or a business organisation targets to hit at the end of its sales or at the end of her business dealings.

It can be easily seen in a cash flow planning as it is once modified to approximate cash flow, and also used for revealing expected results to investors and lenders. In all that it is been used for, in the scenario above, it also can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation, and deriving more conservative budgeting packages in business development too.

Adjust the contribution margin per unit and units sold based on an expected sales promotion.

Alter the fixed cost total and the contribution margin per unit for the effects of outsourcing production.

Alter the contribution margin for the effects of changing to a just-in-time production system.

If there is continually a large unfavorable variance between the target and actual profit, it may be necessary to examine the system used to derive the target profit,

Universal Mines Inc. operates three mines in West Virginia. The ore from each mine is separated into two grades before it is shi

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

this is a cost minimization problem, but it is missing some numbers, so I looked for similar questions (see attached PDF):

minimization equation = 20x₁ + 22x₂ + 18x₃ (costs per ton)

where:

x₁ = mine I

x₂ = mine II

x₃ = mine III

the constraints are:

4x₁ + 6x₂ + x₃ ≥ 54 (high grade ore)

4x₁ + 4x₂ + 6x₃ ≥ 65 (low grade ore)

x₁, x₂, x₃ ≤ 7 (only 7 days per week)

using solver, the optimal solution is

2x₁, 7x₂, and 5x₃

a. The number of days Mine I should operate = 2 days 

b. The number of days Mine Il should operate = 7 days 

c. The number of days Mine III should operate = 5 days 

d. The total cost of the operation for next week = $284,000

Desert Rose, Inc., a prominent consumer products firm, is debating whetherto convert its all-equity capital structure to one tha

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

A. $450

B. $480

C. $540

D. The choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.

Explanation:

a) Calculation to determine her cash flow under the current capital structure

First step is to calculate the earnings per share

EPS = $29,000 / 6,500 shares

EPS = $4.5

Now let calculate the cash flow under the current capital structure

Cash flow = $4.5*(100 shares)

Cash flow = $450

Therefore her cash flow under the current capital structure will be $450

b) Calculation to determine What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm

First step is to calculate the earnings per share

First step is to calculate the MV of the firm

MV of the firm= $45(6,500)

MV of the firm= $292,500

Second step is to calculate the Debt

Debt = .30 x ($292,500)

Debt= $87,750

Third step is to calculate the Interest

Interest =8% x $87,750

Interest = $7,020

Fourth step is to calculate the repurchase shares

Repurchase shares =$87,750 / $45

Repurchase shares= 1,950

Fifth step is to calculate the Shrout new

Shrout new =6,500 - 1,950

Shrout new=4,550

Therefore, under the new capital structure,

EPS = (EBIT - Interest) / shares outstanding new

EPS = ($29,000 -$7,020) / 4,550shares

EPS =$21,980/4,550 shares

EPS =4.8

The shareholder will receive = $4.8*(100 shares) = $480

Therefore What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm is $480

c) Calculation to Show how she could unlever her shares of stock to re-create the original structure.

Now she owns a total of 200 shares

Her payoff =[ (100 shares+100 shares) x $4.5 ]- [8% x $(100 shares x $45)]

Her payoff =(200shares×$4.5)-(8%×$4,500)

Her payoff =$900-$360

Her payoff= $540

Therefore Based on the above Calculation Allison did not successfully replicate the payoffs (b) under the proposed capital structure

d).Based on the above Calculation the choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.
