Answer: a. 2.90%

b. 2.81%

Explanation:

Nominal rate = 6%

Inflation rate = 3.1%

a. What is the approximate real rate of interest?

The approximate real rate of interest will be calculated as:

= Nominal rate - Inflation rate

= 6.0% - 3.1%

= 2.90%

b. What is the exact real rate?

Exact real rate will be calculated as:

= (nominal-inflation) / (1+inflation)

= (6.0% - 3.1%) / (1 + 3.1%)

= 2.9% / 1.031

= 2.81%

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

$1,300

Explanation:

Given that,

On November 15, 2021

sold gift cards = $1,950

Of the gift cards sold in November,

Redeemed in November = $195

Redeemed in December = $455

Therefore, the deferred revenue is as follows

= November sales - Redemptions

=  November sales - (Redeemed in November + Redeemed in December)

= $1,950 - ($195 + $455)

= $1,950 - $650

= $1,300

Mila [183]

Answer: Cost of Goods sold

Explanation:

Common size analysis refers to making all entries in the income statement, a percentage of sales for that year.

Current Year                                                      Prior Year

Sales                                      100%                           100%

Cost of Goods sold               75.7%                          46.5%

Gross Profit                            24.3%                          53.5%

Operating expenses             17.3%                             35%

Net Income                              7.0%                            18.5%

<em>Looking at the percentages above, one can see that the COGS increased the most from the previous year by going from 46.5% to 75.7% representing an increase of 29.2%.</em>

<em>This had the most impact on Net income as it substantially reduced Gross profit. </em>
