Answer:
a. The division’s basic earning power ratio is above the average of other firms in its industry.
Explanation:
All the rest of the option in the question results in less efficiency of the company's division. In order to achieve a better grade Option A is the only choice.
Answer:
Choice A would be the right response to either the following statement.
Explanation:
- This theory seems to be a hypothesis that implies that shareholders will seek a higher rate of return as well as premiums on high-term securities with significantly increased risk maturity since, if all other considerations are similar, investors choose cash and perhaps other extremely liquid assets.
- Even if there is an excess of capital, the inflation rate would have been over stability, as well as the amount of money needed would have been too increasing for stability.
The other choices are not relevant to the situation in question. So choice A is the right one.
Answer: 13.2%
Explanation:
Given data:
No of stores in the market = 5000
No. of store owners = 2000.
Allison charges = $8/month
Sam charges = $8/month.
Solution:
The market penetration rate would be calculated based on potential customers.
Using our general formula,
Market penetration=Numbers of customers who purchased Allison derived sales and Sam derived sales /Total potential population
Where,
Total potential population=1,500
•Allison derived sales = 129 customers
•Sam derived sales = 69 customers
•Numbers of customers who purchased Allison derived sales and Sam derived sales=129 customers+ 69 customers
•Numbers of customers who purchased Allison derived sales and Sam derived sales =198 customers
Let’s input this into our general formula.
Market penetration
= 169 customers/1,500
= 0.132*100
= 13.2%
The market penetration rate based on potential customers is 13.2%
Answer:
Government policymakers decided to reduce the rate of inflation from 3% to 1.6%. As a result, the unemployment rate increased from 4.8% to 6.2%. The sacrifice ratio is:______
d. none of the above
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Old inflation rate = 3%
New inflation rate = 1.6%
Old unemployment rate = 4.8%
New unemployment rate = 6.2%
Ratio of old inflation rate to old unemployment rate = 3 : 4.8 = 0.625
Ratio of new inflation rate to new unemployment rate = 1.6% : 6.2% = 0.258
Sacrifice ratio = Difference between the two ratios = 0.367 (0.625 - 0.258)
b) The sacrifice ratio is the difference between the old ratio and the new ratio of inflation rate to unemployment rate.
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
1. Cash Dr $1,000,000
To Bond payable $1,000,000
(Being the issuance of the bond is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the bond payable as it also increased the liabilities
2. Interest Expense Dr ($1,000,000 × 5% × 1 ÷ 2) $25,000
To Cash $25,000
(Being the interest expense is recorded)
For recording this we debited the interest expense as it increased the expense and credited the cash as it decreased the asset
