Answer:

Alternatives :

1. Bank Overdraft facility

2.Suppliers Credit

Cost determination :

1. Bank Overdraft facility = Interest rate charged on the facility by the bank

2.Suppliers Credit = Opportunity cost of losing the early settlement discount.

Explanation:

If the company can not access sufficient external financing, consider internal sources such as bank overdraft or suppliers credit.

The cost of bank overdraft is evaluated based on the interest rate charged by the bank whilst the cost of the suppliers credit is determined by considering the opportunity cost of losing the cash discount available.

Contribution margin = $16

                                          Current          Proposed

Contribution margin         $6,080             $7,296

Fixed Cost                         <u>($1,490</u>)            <u>($1,490)</u>

Net operating income      $4,590            $5,806

Hawkins Company has owned 10 percent of Larker, Inc., for the past several years. This ownership did not allow Hawkins to have s
Darya [45]

Answer:

There will be no recorded change because the equity method comes into play from the acquisition date

Explanation:

In the event that Hawkins Company purchases or acquires another 30 percent of Larker, Inc. to add to their initial 10 percent holding, there will be no change in the investor report. This is because using the equity method, any investor report only starts taking into effect from the day the acquisition was made. Older statements and reports are not tampered with, as the investor did not have up to 40% of the company at that point  in time.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": searching by brand.

Explanation:

Consumers search by brand when they have decided what product they want to buy but need to compare what one company offers compared to another. This will help consumers differentiate prices, features, and the additional benefits companies offer for selling the same product.

Eventually, the consumer will choose the product that provides him or her with more benefits assuming the decision that an individual will make is rational.

Given the following data for the economy, compute the value of GDP.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The value of GDP is 75

Explanation:

GDP is equal to Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Exports (Exports minus Imports), where total Investment is equal to Fixed Investment plus the Change in Inventories.  

The change in GDP will therefore equal the change in Consumption + the change in Investment + the change in Government Spending + the change in Net Exports, where the change in Investment will equal the change in Fixed Investment plus the change in the Change in Inventories.

= Government purchases of goods and services  (10) + Consumption Expenditures  (70 )+ Exports  (5 ) - Imports  (12) + Change in Inventories  (-7 ) + Construction of new homes and apartments  (15 ) - Sales of existing homes and apartments  (22 ) + Government payments to retirees  (17 ) + Business Fixed Investment  (9)

= 75

Suppose a firm estimates its WACC to be 10%. Should the WACC be used to evaluate all of its potential projects, even if they var
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The WACC will be 10% for average risk

below when the risk is low

and above 10% when the risk is higher than average

as the cost of capital (required return from the stockholders) will increase pushing the WACC higher

Explanation:

As the WACC is composed by the cost of debt and the cost of equity a higher risk will require a better return for the investor thus, the equity proportion that determinates the WACC will change along the project risk.
