Answer:

Please consider the following explanation

Explanation:

Vaseline can improve its financial performance by doing some product differentiation, as the rest 15% are also selling petroleum jelly but at much lower costs than Vaseline, and to convince its customers to spend extra bucks to buy Vaseline, it needs to provide something extra.

Vaseline can incorporate extra ingredients like aloevera, or turmeric, etc, i.e. the beauty or health fashions prevalent in the market this information can be obtained by a thorough research of the beauty blogs available online.

Once the product has something extra, Vaseline can go ahead and market its product better based on the benefits of the product differentiation, and hence steam away market from the remaining 15% and increase its financial performance.

Antonio would like to replace his golf clubs with a​ custom-measured set. A local sporting goods megastore is advertising custom
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Antonio and Replacement of Golf Clubs

a. He should cash the CD and use the proceeds to finance part of the golf clubs.

b. The reason is that he would pay more in in-store financing totaling $37.06 per annum than the net interest he would generate from the CD totaling $23.18 per annum.  And Antonio would incur a net loss of $13.88 if the CD was renewed unlike the $5.74 if the CD were not renewed.

Explanation:

Option 1: Renew Certificate of Deposit (CD):

Interest earned  = $33.48 ($600 * 5.58%)

Taxes                  =   10.30 ($33.48 * 30.75%)

Net Income         = $23.18

Cost of in-store financing = $37.06 ($710 * 5.22%)

Net Loss(overall) = $13.88 ($37.06 - $23.18)

Option 2:

Sale-off of CD = $600

Net financing required = $110 ($710 - $600)

Cost of financing = $5.74 ($110 * 5.22%)

Archy [21]

Answer:

13.64%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 4.8% + 1.7 × (10% - 4.8%)

= 4.8% + 1.7 × 5.2%

= 4.8% + 8.84%

= 13.64%

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also called market risk premium

The Sneed Corporation issues 10,000 shares of $50 par preferred stock for cash at $75 per share. The entry to record the transac
larisa [96]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Value of cash received is :

10,000 shares x $75

=$750,000

And that's a debit as it is shown in the question because cash was received.

Now the credit side.

Value of preferred stock is $50

So we have:

$50 x 10,000 shares

=$500,000 preferred shares.

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par ValuePreferred Stock is $25 ($75 -$50)

So the value will be $25 x $10,000

=$250,000
