Answer: B. : a healthy cash reserve

Explanation:

For the company to be able to declare a Dividend, it's cash reserve needs to be healthy. For this to happen use the following formula;

Free cash balance = Available cash balance - Current Liabilities payable

= 827,000 - 436,000

= $391,000

After taking out the money that will be needed to pay the Current Liabilities, there would be an insufficient balance to pay off the Dividends of $400,000.

Their cash reserve is not healthy enough for the dividends to be declared.

During March, Adams Company had sales of $5,000,000, variable expenses of $3,000,000, and fixed expenses of $1,500,000. Assume t
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Variable cost as a percent of sales:  

= (Variable expenses ÷ Sales) × 100

= ($3,000,000 ÷ $5,000,000) × 100  

= 60%

If Sales = X

then Variable cost is 0.6X (i.e. 60% of Sales)

Sales - Variable cost - fixed expenses = net operating income

X - 0.6X - 1,500,000 = 300,000

0.4X = 300000 + 1500000 = 1800000

X = 1800000 ÷ 0.4

  = 4,500,000

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is normative analysis.

Explanation:

A positive analysis is the one that attempts to reflect reality with statements of cause and effect and is used mainly in microeconomics. On the other hand, a normative analysis, in which reality is prescribed, that is, we go beyond explanation and prediction, value judgments are used.

In contrast to the positive analysis, the normative analysis responds how the law should achieve efficiency objectives. This analysis assumes that efficiency is an objective that law should reflect and that legal norms should change when they fail. From this perspective, efficiency is a social value that the Law should promote.
