Answer: 1.28
Explanation:
The portfolio beta is a weighted average of the investments in the portfolio.
The new beta will therefore be;
= Portfolio beta - weighted beta of stock being sold + weighted beta of stock to be added
= 1.3 + ( 10,000/150,000 * 1.6) + ( 1.3 * 10,000/150,000)
= 1.3 - 0.11 + 0.09
= 1.28
Answer:
Reduction in work in progress = $7500
Explanation:
given data
time = 10 hours
time = 15 hours
worth = $1,500
to find out
reduction in work in process value
solution
we find work in progress by this formula
work in progress = Flow rate × Cycle Time .......................1
so Initial work in progress is
Initial work in progress = (1 per hour) × 10 hours = 10
and Final work in progress is here
Final work in progress = (1 per hour) × 15 hours = 15
so
Initial work in progress value = 10 × 1500
Initial work in progress value= $15000
and
Final work in progress value =15 × 1500
Final work in progress value = $22500
so
Reduction in work in progress = $22500 - $15000
Reduction in work in progress = $7500
Answer:
1. $ 136,500
2. $70000
3. Medical market
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine How much would the company's profits increase (decrease) if it implemented the advertising campaign in the MEDICAL MARKET
First is to calculate the sales
Sales = (400 000 + 70 000)
Sales = $470 000
Second step is to calculate the profit
Variable cost =$470 000 *65%
Variable cost=$305 500
Contribution =$470 000*35%
Contribution =$164,500
Fixed Expense= $28 000
Profit = $ 136,500
Now let calculate the Difference made by advertisement
Difference = 136500 - 120000
Difference=16500
2. Calculation to determine How much would the company's profits increase (decrease) if it implemented the advertising campaign in the
DENTAL MARKET
vcr Of The Dental market = 50%
Variable cost =50% $260 000
Variable cost = $130 000
Contribution = $130 000
Fixed expenses = $60 000
Profit = $70000
Now let determine difference made by the advertisement
Difference =(70000) - 48000
Difference= 22000
3. Based On the above calculation the markets I would recommend that the company focus its advertising campaign is medical market
Note:
I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.
The Complete Question is as under:
Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?
A. $766
B. $29818
C. $3137
D. $3211
Answer:
Option D. $3,137
Explanation:
The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.
The amount saved last year would be:
Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137
Hence the option C is correct here.
Answer:
