Answer:
Average rate of return = 14
%
Explanation:
Average rate of return = Annual average return/ Average Investment
Average investment =( Initial investment + scrap value)/2
Average investment = 138,000 + 12,000/2 =75,000
Average annual return = Savings in cost - energy cost - depreciation
Depreciation = (initial cost - scrap value)/2= (138,000 - 12,000)/2= 12600
Average annual return = 29,780-6,680-12600= 10500
Average rate of return = 10,500/75,000 × 100= 14
%
Average rate of return = 14
%
Answer:
a. 41.6 million
b. 42.28 million
Explanation:
A) GIven
forecast in june = Sjune = 42 million
Checks recived in june = Xjune = 40 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for july
Sjuly = a*Xjune + (1-a)*Sjune
=0.2*40 + (1-0.2)*42 million
=8+33.6 = 41.6 million
B) forecast in july = Sjuly = 41.6 million
Checks recived in july = Xjuly = 45 million
Smoothing constant = a = 0.2
So for August
Saugust = a*Xjuly + (1-a)*Sjuly
=0.2*45 + (1-0.2)*41.6 million
=9+33.28 = 42.28 million
<em>Note: This uses an exponential smoothing to forecast the results, but from the number of checks recived we see that it increases linearly. So we need a linear forecasting method .</em>
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": better match the complexity of the real world.
Explanation:
Economists create models to <em>reflect real-world phenomena through simplified concepts</em>. Those models tend to adopt the most variables possible of economic events to analyze them in-deep, find out why they happen, attempt preventing them or finding a solution for them if feasible.
Answer:
$22.2222, $9.5238, respectively
Explanation:
The market-to-book ratio is given by a share's market value divided by its book value, if shares are selling for $100 on the market, the book value is:
The price to earnings ratio (PE ratio) is determined as a share's price divided by the earnings per share. Earnings per share are:
The book value per share and earnings per share are $22.2222, $9.5238, respectively
