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.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

The answer is $793.50

Explanation:

To solve this, we will use the annual interest formula for simple interest, which is:

A = P(1 + rt)

Where:

A is the final amount including principal
P is the principal amount = $750
r is the rate per year = 2.9% or 0.029 (that is 2.9 divided by 100)
t is the number of years = 2 years

Next, we input these into the equation as follows:

A = 750(1 + 0.029 x 2)

A = 750(1 + 0.058)

A = 750(1.058)

A = 793.5

Therefore, Susan earns $793.50

A stock has an expected return of 12.2 percent, the risk-free rate is 6 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Beta = 0.62

Explanation:

The capital pricing model establishes the relationship between expected return from a stock and its systematic risk . The systematic risk is that which affects all players (businesses and firms) in the entire market, such risks are occassioned by changes in interest rate, exchange rate e.t.c

According to the model , the expected return is computed as follows

E(r) = Rf + β(Rm-Rf)

Rf- risk -free rate, Rm-Rf - market premium

E(r) = 12.2%, Rm-Rf = 10, β- ?

12.2 = 6% + β× 10

10β = 12.2 -6

β= (12.2-6)/10

= 0.62
