Paha777 [63]3 years ago

Answer:

Buffett is concerned about debt in business as they analyse the financial statement of business before acquiring it or investing in it, as it suggest the future financial position of the company and it´s ability to generate consistent earning for the company. They focus on return on equity rather than debt, as regulatory body, credit agencies, and creditors use financial statement to decide on company´s worthiness by evaluating company´s debt and lending term. Debt become obligation for the company and its shows weak accounting and financial position of the company. The warren buffett´s investment policy is to acquire and hold companies for long run, therefore return on equity is a better parameter to evaluate any company.

2-a. Refer to the original data. How much will net operating income increase (decrease) per month if the company uses higher-qua
Vadim26 [7]

The original data is :

Data for Hermann Corporation

                                          Per unit     Percent of sales

Selling price                         $ 75              100%

Variable expenses                  51                 68

Contribution margin             $ 24               32%

The fixed expenses are $ 75,000 per month and the company is selling 4000 units per month.

Solution :

                                                     Present             Proposed

Sales                                             300000            375000

Less : Variable cost                      204000           275000

Contribution margin                     96000               100000

Less : Fixed expenses             <u>    75000     </u>      <u>     75000    </u>

Net income                                   21000                25000

The net operating income :      Increases          4000

Net operating income = increased sales Net income - current sales net income.

Therefore the higher quality component should be used.
