Answer:

Explanation:

Net Income = 20m

Sales = 100m

Debt-equity ration = 40%

Asset turnover = 0.60

A)

Profit Margin = Net Income / Sales  = $20 million / $100 million  = 20%

Equity Multiplier = 1 + Debt-Equity Ratio  = 1 + 0.40  = 1.40

Return on Equity = Profit Margin * Asset Turnover * Equity Multiplier               = 20% * 0.60 * 1.40  = 16.80%

B)

Debt-equity ratio = 60%

Equity Multiplier = 1 + Debt-Equity Ratio  = 1 + 0.60  = 1.60

Return on Equity = Profit Margin * Asset Turnover * Equity Multiplier  = 20% * 0.60 * 1.60 = 19.20%

As calculations provide, if debt-equity ratio increases to 60%, Return on equity will increase by 2.40% (19.20% - 16.80%)

Sav [38]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Present charge = 1045 per day

Trade price of RM = $3.1350/$

Malaysian inflation rate(mr) = 2.75% = 0.0275 per annum

US inflation rate (ur) = 1.25% = 0.0125 per annum

a. How many dollars might Theresa expect to need one year hence to pay for her 30-day vacation?

Trade price * (1 + mr) / (1 + ur)

Cost for 30 days considering inflation :

Present charge * (1 + mr) * 30

= $1045 * 1.0275 * 30

= $32212.125

Cost for 30 days considering inflation / [Trade price * (1 + mr) / (1 + ur)]

$32212.125 / 3.1350 * (1.0275) / (1.0125)

$32212.125 / 3.1814444

= $10125.000

b.) By what percent will the dollar cost have gone up? Why?

Dollar cost would have gone up by 1.25%, this is inferred from the inflation rate of the United States currency, which is the rate which will affe the cost of dollar.

A segment has the following data:
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Net income will decrease by $400,000

Explanation:

Currently this business unit is generating a net loss of $150,000:

total revenue - variable expenses - fixed costs = $700,000 - $300,000 - $550,000 = -$150,000

if the unit is eliminated, then the revenue and variable expenses will be gone, but the fixed costs will be allocated to other business units. So instead of losing $150,000, the company will lose $550,000. The company's net income will decrease by $550,000 - $150,000 = $400,000
