Answer: return on equity

Explanation:

The return on equity is simply a measure of how profitable a business will be when it's being compared to its equity. Return on equity is the net income divided by the equity. It can also be gotten when liabilities is deducted from assets.

In the above analysis, return on equity equals 5% because 100 cents make 1 dollar. Therefore, 5/100 × 100 gives 5%.

The only variable input a janitorial service firm uses to clean offices is workers who are paid a​ wage, w, of ​$88 an hour. Eac
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Answer : Average Marginal Cost, Marginal Cost = $2

The total cost per hour of the janitorial service firm = $32

Explanation:

The janitorial firm only uses labour as an input to clean offices and there are no fixed costs. This implies that the total cost is only the variable cost.

Each worker can clean 4 offices in an hour, therefore the output of each labour is 4units per office cleaned. The price/wages paid to each worker isb $8 per hour.

The total cost per hour of the janitorial service firm is $8x4 = $32 (wxq)

Now to clean one more office, the time required will be 15minuites, because each worker can clean 4 offices in an hour. To clean one more office , each worker will be paid $2($8/4)

The variable cost/total cost, average variable cost and the marginal cost of cleaning one more office will be

Variable cost =w.q = 2q

Average Variable Cost = VC/q = 2q/q = $2

sine the marginal cost also varies directly as the average marginal cost , the Marginal Cost is $2

Star Corp. has a rate of return on assets of 10% and a debt/equity ratio of 2 to 1 before entering into an operating lease. Not
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The return on assets and debt/equity ratio does not change

Explanation:

An operating lease does not affect assets and liabilities. From the formula:

Equity = Assets - Liabilities, since both assets and liabilities are not affected (they remain unchanged) therefore the equity is also the same.

The debt/ equity ratio = total liabilities/total equity. Since liabilities and equity remain unchanged, therefore The debt/ equity ratio is the same.

Also the return of assets (earnings/assets) remain the same

Your mother and father are retired and need income to live on. The local financial advisor offers to sell them a product that wi
klio [65]

Answer:

To evaluate the choice, we have to calculate the present value of future cash flows and compare it with the cost. We use the following formula

    present value    =  C ×  [ \frac{1 - (1 + i)^{-n} }{i} ]​

where

                     C = yearly payments = 75000

                     i =  interest rate  = 8%

                     n = no. of years   = 15

put the given values in above equation, we get

       Present value = 75000 ×8.559478688

                               = 641,961

Since the present value of cash flow 641,961 is less than the cost 750,000, I would not recommend it.

If Interest rate = 5%, then:

Do the same procedure as above but take i=5%

        Present value = 75000 × 10.37965804

                                = 778,474

Since the present value of future cash flows 778,474 is greater than the cost 750,000, I would recommend it.
