Performance audit is defined as a systematic, multidisciplinary, independent and objective review of the operation, programs and projects carried out by an organization and focuses mainly on evaluation to determine if its management has performed in terms of economy, efficiency and effectiveness.
The performance audit emphasizes how the different areas of a company have impacted the target market with their actions, considering the relevant results and real progress in achieving the objectives and goals.
Among its main technical tools we can distinguish the matrix of results indicators, which allows to efficiently link the objectives of the company and the results expected to be obtained in each of them, as well as the measurement indexes necessary for its monitoring and evaluation.

Answer:
22 radio advertisements will be used.
Explanation:
<u>Note</u>: A similar complete question is as follow as the question provided is incomplete <em>"A company has $11,970 available per month for advertising. Newspaper ads cost $110 each and can't run more than 25 times per month. Radio ads cost $410 each and can't run more than 32 times per month at this price. Each newspaper ad reaches 5950 potential customers, and each radio ad reaches 7100 potential customers. The company wants to maximize the number of ad exposures to potential customers. Use n n for number of Newspaper advertisements and r r for number of Radio advertisements . Maximize P"</em>
Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in newspaper advertising = 5950 / 110 = 54.09
Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in Radio advertisements = 7100 / 410 = 17.32.
As the number of potential customers reached by each dollar spent is more from the newspaper advertising, we will use all the newspaper advertising opportunities before going for the radio advertisements. So, we will choose to have 25 newspaper advertisements in the month.
The cost of 25 newspaper advertisements = 25*110 = $2750.
Amount left = $11970 - $2750 = $9220.
Number of radio advertisements possible in this budget = 9220 / 410 = 22.48
Hence, 22 radio advertisements will be used.
Answer:
0.2
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is calculated as below:
WACC = (D/A) x r_D x (1-t) + (E/A) x r_E , where:
A: Market value of company asset;
D: Market value of company debt;
E: Market value of company equity;
r_D: pre-tax cost of debt;
r_E: cost of equity;
t: tax rate
Rearrange above formula a bit, we get:
WACC = (D/A) x r_D x (1-t) + (1 - D/A) x r_E
Putting all the numbers together, we have:
10.9% = (D/A) x 8.9% x (1 - 38%) + (1 - D/A) x 12%
Solve the equation, we get D/A = 17% or D/E = 0.2
So, target debt−equity ratio is 0.2
Answer:
We can infer from the graph, that about two thirds (around 60%) of the world's population lived in Asia in 2008.
Asia is by far the most populated continent in the world. The two most populous countries of the globe are located in Asia: India, and China, each with over 1 billion people.
