Remainder part of the question:

This turned out to be a very poor growth strategy because

A. the capital stock was increasing less rapidly than technology.

B. the amount of labor per unit of capital was increasing.

C. there were diminishing returns to capital.

D. the amount of capital per hour worked was decreasing

Answer:

Option C There were diminishing returns to capital.

Explanation:

The reason is that the investment gave diminishing returns which didn't covered its cost of capital (the cost that we pay to finance providers). This diminishing returns limited the investment in the forthcoming period and as result we see the fall of Soviet Union. So this option provides a better insight to the poor growth strategy. The investment must be in projects that generates greater value to the organization.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

8.14 times

Explanation:

The computation of the Time interest earned ratio is shown below:

As we know that

Times interest earned ratio = (Earnings before interest and taxes) ÷ (Interest expense)

where,

Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for the year + Interest expense

But before tha,  we need to do the following calculations

The interest amount  is

= $350,000 × 0.08

= $28,000

The net profit is

= $1,750,000 × 8%

= $140,000

The EBIT is

= Profit before tax + interest expense

= $140,000 ÷ (1 - 0.30) + $28,000

= $200,000 + $28,000

= $228,000

And, the interest expense is $28,000

So, the TIE ratio is

= $228,000 ÷ $28,000

= 8.14 times
