Answer: The firm is experiencing diseconomies of scale.

Explanation:

In economics, diseconomies of scale are cost disadvantages that economic agents such as individuals, firms and governments accrue as a result of an increase in the output or organizational size resulting in the production of goods and services at an increased per-unit-costs.

Diseconomies of scale in businesses lead to an increase in the business average costs as the business grows. Regarding the question, while resources are increased by 10%, output increased by less than 5% shows diseconomies of scale since there's increase in the cost.

West company declared a $0.50 per share cash dividend. the company has 190,000 shares issued, and 10,000 shares in treasury stoc
Damm [24]
To record the dividend declaration
   Ordinary Share Capital   $90000
          Dividend Payable         $90000
to record payment
     Dividend Payable         $90000
           Cash                            $90000

The amount is derived from the shares issued and outstanding so, the 190000 issued is deducted by 10000 treasury shares because treasury shares are reacquired by the company so it is not an outstanding share, then just multiply the answer with the dividend per share to arrive at $90000

190000-10000shares * $.50 =$90000

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%.

A market research company employs a large number of typists to enter data into a computer database. The time it takes for potent
monitta

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>4.75% of the candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Explanation:

The relevant information to solve the problem is:

  • 1. <em>The time it takes to learn follows a Normal distribution </em>

  • 2.<em> The mean is 90 minutes</em>

  • 3. T<em>he standard deviation is 18 minutes</em>

  • 4. <em>The question is What proportion of candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system?</em>

Then, you shall calculate the Z-score and use a standard distribution table to look up the Z-score and the corresponding probability.

Repeating myself from a recent answer, "there are two types of standard distribution tables: tables that show values that represent the AREA to the LEFT of the Z-score, and tables that show values that represent the AREA to the RIGHT of the Z-score".

<u>1. First, calculate the Z-score:</u>

       Z-score=\frac{x-mean}{standard\text{ }deviation}

                          x=2hours=120min

        Z-score=\frac{120-90}{18}\approx 1.67

<u>2. Use the table that represents the area to the right of the mean to find the ratio of typists that have a Z-score greater than 1.67.</u>

          Probability=0.0475=4.75\%

Therefore, 4.75% of the candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system.

The following partial information is taken from the comparative balance sheet of Levi Corporation: Shareholders’ equity 12/31/20
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$29.6 million per share

Explanation:

Additional share issued = (Issued and shares outstanding 2021 + Additional paid-in capital on common stock 2021) - (Issued and shares outstanding 2020 + Additional paid-in capital on common stock 2020)

Additional share issued = (110 million + 527 million) - (95 million + 394 million)

Additional share issued = 637 million - 489 million

Additional share issued = $148 million

Average price paid = Additional share issued / $5

Average price paid = $29.6 million per share
