Answer:
The ratio that is helpful in understanding whether the relationship between cash and marketable securities is reasonable in relation to current assets or total assets is;
Current assets/Total assets
Explanation:
Current assets represent a portion of the total assets that can be converted into cash or marketable securities quickly. A higher Current assets to total assets helps one to know the amount of the total assets that can be liquidated fairly quickly. The current assets should be able to be converted into cash or cash equivalents within a year to be deemed as a current asset. Examples of current assets are; cash, cash equivalents, stock inventories, market securities, accounts receivable, inventories and other liquid assets.
Current assets are the exact opposite of long-term assets, since the latter represents the portion of total assets that can not be easily converted in cash and cash equivalents within a year. They usually take a much longer time to convert into cash. They are; equipment, land and buildings.
The total assets include all the assets mentioned above. The summation of currents assets and long-term assets form the total assets.
Answer:
11.68%
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 4.4% + 1.3 × (10% - 4.4%)
= 4.4% + 1.3 × 5.6%
= 4.4% + 7.28%
= 11.68%
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called market risk premium
Buy shares in a mutual fund. Mutual funds pool savings from many individual investors and then
invest in a diversified portfolio of securities. Each individual investor then owns a proportionate
share of the mutual fund's portfolio.
Answer:
b. decrease by $1,000
Explanation:
There is an option below the question ask for details
For computing the profit or loss, first we have to determine the variable cost per unit which is shown below:
= Total variable cost ÷ Number of cases sold
= $144,000 ÷ 9,000 cases
= $16 per cases
The total variable cost would be
= $126,000 + $18,000
= $144,000
And, profit per case is $15
So, the loss per case would be
= $15 per case - $16 per case
= -$1 per case
So, the total loss would be
= 1,000 cases × $1
= $1,000 decrease
