Answer:

Return  (%)   = 17.43%

Explanation:

T<em>he return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.</em>

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Dividend= ($1.60× 140)= $224

Capital gains= (90-78) × 140= $1680

Total dollar return on Investment = $224+ $1680= $1904

Total return in (%) = Return/ cost of shares × 100

                           = 1904/ (140 × 78) ×  100

                           = 17.43%

All of the following statements about the economic philosophy in Texas are true EXCEPT
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The answer is: B) The median wage in Texas is much higher than the national average. THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE.

Explanation:

If you take the facts from the Census ACS 1 year survey, the median household income in Texas is $59,206 (2017 data) and a median hourly wage of $17,06 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics).

If you compare those numbers with the national average, the US median household income is $60,336 (the national average is $1,130 higher than the Texas median household income). Historically the Texas median household income has been lower than the national average.

If we consider the median hourly wage in Texas of $17,06 (2016 data) and we compare to the national hourly wage of $17,81 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics) we can clearly see it´s also lower. The top ten states with the highest median hourly wage are: Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Washington, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, California, Minnesota, Hawaii, with hourly wages ranging from $22.68 to $19.24

Calculation to determine what the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:

First step is to calculate the Variable cost per unit using this formula

Variable cost per unit = Direct materials per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Sales commissions per unit + Variable administrative expense per unit

Let plug in the formula

Variable cost per unit = $5.15 + $5.30 + $1.95 + $0.60 + $0.55

Variable cost per unit = $13.55

Now let determine the Contribution margin per unit using this formula

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin per unit = $26.00 - $13.55

Contribution margin per unit = $12.45

Therefore the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:$12.45
