The question is incomplete as the figures are missing. The complete question is,
Fosnight Enterprises prepared the following sales budget:
Month Budgeted Sales
March $6,000
April $13,000
May $11,000
June $20,000
The expected gross profit rate is 20% and the inventory at the end of February was $7,000. Desired inventory levels at the end of the month are 30% of the next month's cost of goods sold. What are the total purchases budgeted for May?
Answer:
Purchases - May = $10960
Explanation:
To calculate the total value of purchases that are budgeted for May, we first need to calculate the cost of goods sold and the opening and closing inventory for May.
As the gross profit margin is 20%, the cost of goods sold will be 80% of sales.
Cost of goods sold for May = 0.8 * 11000 = $8800
Cost of goods sold for June = 0.8 * 20000 = $16000
Opening inventory - May = 8800 * 0.3 = $2640
Closing Inventory - May = 16000 * 0.3 = $4800
Purchases = Closing Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold for the month - Opening Inventory
Purchases - May = 4800 + 8800 - 2640
Purchases - May = $10960
Answer: Proceeds transaction
Explanation:
In a proceeds transaction, the broker is involved in two related transactions which are the selling of one stock and the buying of another.
Proceed transactions involve a customer asking their broker to sell their stock and then use the proceeds gained from that sale to buy another stock which is what the customer did when he directed his broker to sell ABCD stock and use the proceeds to buy XPDQ stock.
Answer:
3.79 years
Explanation:
In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:
In year 0 = $117,200
In year 1 = $53,000
In year 2 = $21,500
In year 3 = $26,500
In year 4 = $20,500
In year 5 = $23,000
If we sum the first 3 year cash inflows than it would be $101,000
Now we deduct the $101,000 from the $117,200 , so the amount would be $16,200 as if we added the fourth year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it
And, the next year cash inflow is $20,500
So, the payback period equal to
= 3 years + $16,200 ÷ $20,500
= 3.79 years
In 3.79 years, the invested amount is recovered.
Answer:
The answer is "Option 4".
Explanation:
The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index formula:

here sn is the firm n's share of the market proportion represented the society in general number instead of a decimal
Index Herfindahl-Hirschman:
Index Herfindahl-Hirschman(Result of the merger, firms with profit margins of 6% and 5% provided market shares of respectively).

The market with just an HHI of less than 1,500 is called a competitive industry, one on an HHI of 1,500 to 2,500 is called a moderately competitive store, and one on an HHI of 2,500 or higher is considered a highly potent store by us Justice department.
All businesses operate in a moderately crowded market, as well as a merger such as this reduces competition (increases chances of monopoly). Also as result, the Justice Dept may examine its merger but will most likely deny this because the Herfindahl-Hirschman index has risen.
