Answer:

. increase by 25% increase

Explanation:

The degree of operating leverage (DOL) measures the sensitivity of a company's operating income or profits to changes in the demand

DOL = percentage change in operating income or profits / percentage change in units sold

2.5 = percentage change in operating income / 10%

percentage change in operating income  = 10% x 2.5 = 25%

profits will increase by 25%

oee [108]

Answer:

11.11%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on assets is given below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Total assets = Total debt ÷ Total debt ratio

= $657,000 ÷ 0.31

= $2,119,354.839

Total equity = Total Assets - Total Debt

= $2,119,354.839 - $657,000

= $1,462,354.839

Net profit = Total equity × Return on equity

= $1,462,354.839 × 0.161

= $235,439.129

And, finally

ROA = Net profit ÷ Total Assets

= $235,439.129 ÷ $2,119,354.839

= 11.11%

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

D) is not acceptable because such a guarantee would cause a conflict of interest pertaining to the IA's fiduciary duty to each client

Explanation:

The members of the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) must follow their Model Rule which prohibits investment adviser firms from guaranteeing investment results, in other words they cannot guarantee a minimum profit.

In this case the employee suggested that if their clients didn't earn a minimum 12% profit, then they would refund any fees collected. But the IA firm is not allowed to guarantee the 12% value increase or profit.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

both companies should invest because the NPV of both companies are positive

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.  

When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.

Cash flow in year 0 = - $8.4 million

Cash flow in year 1-7 =  $2.2 million

NPV of Lester with I of 15.8% = 0.54 million

NPV of Med Inc with I of 13.7% = 1.12 million

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute
