Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.

If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.

The opportunity cost of attending college for Brooke is the amount that she could earn as an actress i.e. $2 million per year.

The opportunity cost of attending college for Sandy is the amount that he could earn by serving hamburgers i.e. $10,000 a year.

Therefore, opportunity cost of attending college is greater for Brooke than for Sandy.

omparative Income Statement For the Years Ended December 31, 20Y6 and 20Y5 1 20Y6 20Y5 Amount Increase (Decrease) Percentage Inc
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

 

Liquidity and Solvency Measures Computations

Current ratio $3,093,000 ÷ $840,000

Working capital $3,093,000 – $840,000

Accounts receivable turnover $8,280,000 ÷ [($714,000 + $740,000) ÷ 2]

Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities $2,690,000 ÷ $1,690,000

Inventory turnover $4,100,000 ÷ [($1,072,000 + $1,100,000) ÷ 2]

Number of days' sales in receivables [($714,000 + $740,000) ÷ 2] ÷ ($8,280,000 ÷ 365)

Number of days' sales in inventory [($1,072,000 + $1,100,000) ÷ 2] ÷ ($4,100,000 ÷ 365)

Times interest earned ($989,400 + $127,000) ÷ $127,000

Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity $2,530,000 ÷ $4,077,000

Quick ratio $1,866,000 ÷ $840,000

Profitability Measures Computations

Asset turnover $8,280,000 ÷ [($5,783,000 + $5,593,000) ÷ 2]

Return on total assets ($801,420 + $127,000) ÷ [($6,607,000 + $6,417,000) ÷ 2]

Return on stockholders’ equity $801,420 ÷ [($4,077,000 + $3,873,150) ÷ 2]

Return on common stockholders’ equity ($801,420 – $65,000) ÷ [($3,589,500 + $3,445,920) ÷ 2]

Earnings per share on common stock ($801,420 – $65,000) ÷ 250,000 shares

Price-earnings ratio $35 ÷ $3.05

Dividends per share $175,000 ÷ 250,000 shares

Dividend yield $0.70 ÷ $35

Two of the computations use shares.

Use the following comparative income statement form to enter amounts you identify from the computations on the Liquidity and Solvency Measures panel and on the Profitability Measures panel. Compute any missing amounts and complete the horizontal analysis columns. Enter percentages as decimal amounts, rounded to one decimal place. When rounding, look only at the figure to the right of one decimal place. If < 5, round down and if ≥ 5, round up. For example, for 32.048% enter 32.0%. For 32.058% enter 32.1%.
