<span>An increase in the marginal income tax rate is likely to decrease the quantity of labor supplied. because the increase in the tax automatically reduces the profit of the firm. the management will always try to compensate their loss by taking necessary reforms or measures. the first and simplest method to reduce the loss is to cut down the expense by reducing the labour involved.</span>
<span>Laura should both reduce her variable costs and increase her total revenue. If she charged 10% more ($275 instead of $250) and reduced her variable costs by 10% ($162 instead of $180), she would nearly double her profits. She would profit $93 per cake compared to her current $50.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is 10.72% ( Approx.).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
Debt ratio = 46.5%
Capital intensity ratio = 2.51 times
Profit margins = 21%
Dividend payout = 38%
Formula to calculate sustainable growth rate ae as follows:
Sustainable growth rate = (Earnings retention rate × Return on equity ) / ( 1 - (ROE × RR)
where, Retention rate =(1 - dividend payout rate)
= (1-0.38) = 0.62
ROE = Profit margin × Total asset turonver × Equity multipler
= Profit margin × 1/capital intensity ratio × 1/(1-debt ratio)
= .21 × (1/2.51) × 1/(1-.465)
= .21 × 0.398 × 1.869
= 0.1562
=15.62%
So, Sustainable growth rate = (0.1562*0.62) / 1 - (0.1562*0.62)
= 0.096844 / 0.903156
= 0.1072
= 10.72% (approx.)
Hence, the correct answer is 10.72% (approx.).
<span>Let us first find out how much of the prepaid subscriptions has been used up during the reporting year. $1548 is for 36 months. So the monthly rate of subscription charges will be 1548/36 = 43. During the reporting year, subscription charges are paid only for 9 months( from April to December) So the amount to be debited to subscription charges = 43 * 9 = 387. Subscription charges will be debited with $ 387 and prepaid subscriptions account will be credited with the same amount. The remaining amount, 1548-387=1161, will remain in prepaid subscriptions account as a debit balance.</span>
Answer:
B.40,000 square feet
Explanation:
Calculation to correctly denotes the number of square feet and employees over which the Building Maintenance cost and Human Resources cost would be allocated
Employees Human Resources 4,000
Machining 15,000
Assembly 21,000
Number of square feet 40,000
(4,000+15,000+21,000)
Therefore the number of square feet and employees over which the Building Maintenance cost and Human Resources cost would be allocated is 40,000
