Answer:

ABC Company

Financial Analysis:

A. The cost of goods sold has been increasing over the five years.

Explanation:

The gross profit ratio was 58.3% in year 1 and continued a downward spiral to 41.3% in year 5. This depicted an underlying fact that the cost of goods sold had been increasing over the years. The cost of goods sold influences the gross profit, and with the sales value remaining stable over the years, the ability of the company to generate enough profit out of its sales had been impaired greatly. Fortunately, for ABC Company, the increasing cost of goods sold did not increase alongside the fixed costs of running the business. This resulted to an increasing net profit ratio over the same period.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Paraguas should borrow at LIBOR + 2.000% and swap for fixed rate debt.

Lluvia should choose funding in floating rate

Explanation:

Paraguas wants the security of fixed rate borrowing; thus it should borrow at LIBOR + 2.000% and swap for fixed rate debt, in which Libor is 5.500%; their total cost at 7.5% is still lower than Fixed rate 12.0%

Lluvia prefer the flexibility of floating rate borrowing, and its rating is better; then it can enjoy lower cost of borrowing at 5%. However it may face the increase if LIBOR increase later; vice versa if LIBOR decrease, its cost of borrowing is able to reduce also.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

For April, revenue was $90,000 and labor hours were 4x[(40x6)+(25x4)]. This is 90,000/1,360 = 66.18 dollars per hour of labor. For May, revenue was $80,000 and labor hours were 4x[(40x6)+(10x2)] This is 80,000/1,040 = 77 dollars per hour of labor a difference of $ 10.82per hour. The percentage change in productivity between April and May, then, is 3.95/44.12 = 0.1634935026x 100 = 16.35%

leva [86]

Answer:

The Company's cash cycle is 17.3 days

Explanation:

The cash cycle is computed by the following formula:

Receivable No of days+ Inventory No of days- Payables No of days

31.4 days + 22.4 days - 36.5 days = 17.3 days

In the above question, Ives Corp is making an efficient operation of its cash resources. The payables are more than inventory, so the payables are financing the inventory as well as partly the receivables.
