Suppose that $1 lottery tickets have the following probabilities and values: 1 in 5 to win a free ticket (worth $1), 1 in 100 to

Fantom [35]

Answer:

$0.36

Explanation:

Expected value of the lottery ticket = (p1 x a1) + (p2 x a2) + (p3 x a3) + (p4 x a4)

p1 = probability of winning $1 = 1/5 = 0.2

a1 = $1

p2 = probability of winning $5 = 1/100 = 0.01

a2 = $5

p3 = probability of winning $1000 = 1/100,000 = 0.00001

a3 = $1000

p4 = probability of winning $1 million = 1/10,000,000 = 0.0000001

a4 = $1 million

(0.2 x 1) + (0.01 x 5) + (0.00001 x 1000) + (1,000,000 x 0.00001) = $0.36

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The Sales will increase by $350,000 (2000,000 * 17.5%)

Explanation:

As we know that,

Self Supporting Growth Rate = Return on Equity * (1 - Payout Ratio) ...Eq1

Here

Payout ratio given is 50%

and

Return on Equity = 35% (Step 1)

By putting values in Eq1, we have:

Self Supporting Growth Rate = 35% * (1 - 50%)

Self Supporting Growth Rate = 17.5%

Which means that Sales will increase by $350,000 (2000,000 * 17.5%) which is 17.5%.

Step 1: Find Return on Equity

We know that:

Return on Equity = Net Income / Equity ..............Eq2

As we are not given value of Net Income we can not calculate the value of return on equity. But there is another way that we can calculate by simply multiplying and dividing by sales on Left hand side of the Eq2 equation.

Return on Equity = Net Income / Equity * Sales / Sales

By rearranging, we have:

Return on Equity = Net Income / Sales * Sales / Equity

Now here,

Net Income / Sales = Profit Margin

By putting this in the above equation, we have:

Return on Equity = Profit Margin * Sales / Equity

Here

Profit Margin is 7% given in the question.

Sales were $2,000,000

And

Equity is $400,000 (Step 2)

By putting values, we have:

Return on Equity = 7% * $2,000,000 / $400,000

Return on Equity = 35%

Step 2. Find Equity

Equity = Assets - Liabilities

Here,

Assets are worth $1,400,000

Liabilities are standing at $1,000,000 which includes only current liabilities because company doesn't have any long term borrowings

By putting the values, we have:

Equity = $1,400,000 - $1,000,000 = $400,000

Brother, don't forget to rate the answer.

zvonat [6]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The expected value of each course of action in a decision tree is not determined by starting at the beginning of the tree, instead it is a process because you need to make a desition and in some extend you espect to have some results but some of them are uncertain or unespected. in this kind of scheme Squares represent decisions, and circles represent uncertain outcomes. Then you need to calcule the desition nodes giving each option a cost or value, This will give you a value that represents the benefit of each decision. at the end calculating choose the option that has the largest benefit, and take that as the decision made. This is the value of that decision node.

ABC system allocates overheads to jobs using cost drivers.

First an Activity Center where costs accumulate is identified these can be several in our scenario we have four Activity Centers.

Then the Cost driver rate is calculated for each Activity Center. Our question has provided these.

The final step is to allocate the overheads to a particular job using the cost driver rate.
