Answer:

Current ratio- 2.03 2.33 1.73 and Acid-test ratio- 0.98 0.43 0.60

Explanation:

Attach is the table of given cases

Acid test ratio= $\frac{cash+Short\ term\ investments+ Current\ receivables }{Current\ liabilities}$

Now, solving for acid test ratio.

Case x

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{1800+0+150}{2000}$

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{1950}{2000}$

∴ Acid test ratio= $0.975 \approx 0.98$

Case y

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{120+0+400}{1210}$

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{520}{1210}$

∴ Acid test ratio= $0.429 \approx 0.43$

Case Z

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{1000+400+400}{3000}$

⇒ Acid test ratio= $\frac{1800}{3000}$

∴ Acid test ratio= $0.60$

Next solving for current ratio.

We know, current ratio= $\frac{Current\ assets}{Current\ liability}$

Case x

⇒ current ratio= $\frac{4050}{2000}$

∴ current ratio= $2.025 \approx 2.03$

Case y

⇒ current ratio= $\frac{2820}{1210}$

∴ current ratio= $2.33$

Case Z

⇒ current ratio= $\frac{5200}{3000}$

∴ current ratio= $1.73$

Hence, Current ratio- 2.03 2.33 1.73 and Acid-test ratio- 0.98 0.43 0.60

Provide realistic examples of each of the risk response strategies for both negative and positive risks

VLD [36.1K]

A positive risk response produces provides positive strategies to achieve a positive goal while a negative risk response provides negative strategies to achieve a negative goal. There are four ways four strategies that produces a response risk; enhance, exploit, accept and share. The type of response risk will vary in the accept part.

An example of a positive risk is when you are given a project in class and you are to finish it in four months. Being a hardworking person that you are, you wanted to finish it in one month and so you find methods to compress your time schedule and achieve your goal.

Let us take the example from the above mentioned before for an example of a negative risk. So instead of four months, since you do not like working or the fact that maybe you don't like the project, you passed your project in six months. What you just did is lounge around the corner and did nothing to just improve the project.

Julius Company bought a machine on January 1, 2016. The machine cost $144,000 and had an expected salvage value of $24,000. The

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$96,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of the machine purchased on January 1, 2016 = $144,000

Expected salvage value = $24,000

Estimated life of the machine = 5 years

Now,

Using the straight line method of depreciation

Annual depreciation = $\frac{\textup{Cost - Salvage value}}{\textup{Useful life}}$

Annual depreciation = $\frac{\textup{144,000 - 24,000}}{\textup{5}}$

Annual depreciation = $24,000

Now,

the accumulated depreciation till beginning of the third year

= Depreciation for the two years

= Annual depreciation × 2

= $24,000 × 2

= $48,000

Therefore,

The book value at the beginning of the third year

= Cost - Accumulated depreciation

= $144,000 - $48,000

= $96,000

A certain movie star's salary for each film she makes consists of a fixed amount, along with a percentage of the gross revenue t

umka2103 [35]

Salary relationships usually have behaviors that can be expressed through mathematical equations, for this case we must locate the information they give us, according to which the salary of the movie star $S$ is equal to a fixed basic remuneration $b$ plus a percentage $x$ of the gross income $g$ , that is:

$S = b + gx$

With this equation and the data they give us, we can solve the request so :

$\boldsymbol{1)} \; 32 = b + 100x\\\boldsymbol{2)} \; 24 = b + 60x$

We clear the basic remuneration $b$ from the second equation and replace in the first:

$\boldsymbol{2)} \; 24 = b + 60x\\24-60x = b\\\boldsymbol{1)} \; 32 = b + 100x\\32 = (24-60x) + 100x\\32-24=100x-60x\\8=40x\\\frac{8}{40} =x\\\boldsymbol{x=0,2}\\b=24-60x\\b=24-60(0,2)\\b=24-12\\\boldsymbol{b=12}$

Thus, with the fixed basic remuneration and the percentage of gross income calculated, we can estimate how much the following film should obtain so that the movie star obtains at least $40$ millions salary:

$40 = g (0.2) +12\\40-12 = g (0.2)\\\frac{28}{0.2y} = g\\\boldsymbol{g = 140}$

Answer

The minimum amount of gross income that the next film should generate is $\$ 140$ millions
