2. Assuming annual sales have not changed in the last three years, the change in accounts receivable as a percentage of total assets is favorable.  It is always better to maintain low accounts receivable, thereby reducing credit risk exposures.

3. Assuming annual sales have not changed in the last three years, the change in merchandise inventory as a percentage of total assets is favorable.  Less inventory means that working capital is not being tied down to inventory.

Explanation:

Common-size percentages are used in analyzing the balance sheet.   The calculations set each line item as a percent of the total assets.

Margaret [11]

Answer:   Option A          

             

Explanation: For finance, an investment's beta (β or beta coefficient) is a measure of risk as opposed to idiosyncratic variables resulting from vulnerability to current market fluctuations.

The financial assets ' equity pool has a beta of precisely 1. A beta under 1 may imply either a less volatility in investment than the market, or a volatile portfolio whose price changes are not closely linked to the industry.Beta is relevant because it calculates the risk of a diversification-free investment.

  Quarter 4                                                                 <u>$ 79,680</u>

Total Year payments                                                 $ 320,060

4.  Total cost of Direct Labor    

  Quarter 1                                                                  $ 27,900

  Quarter 2                                                                 $ 37,200

  Quarter 4                                                                 <u>$ 31,000</u>

Total Year for direct labor                                       $ 130,200

Explanation:

Computation of raw material purchases

<u>Raw material consumption</u>

Qtr No of Units per qtr Total Requirement

1        9,000 * 7 gms per unit =      63,000 gms

2      12,000 * 7 gms per unit =      84,000 gms

3       11,000 * 7 gms per unit =      77,000 gms

4       10,000 * 7 gms per unit =     <u>70,000</u> gms

Total Year                                     294,000 gms

Raw Material Purchases for each quarter

Purchases = Closing inventory + Consumption - Opening inventory

1 21,000 (84,000gms * 25 % ) + 63,000 - 15.750 =  68,250 gms  

2 19,250 (77,000gms* 25 %) + 84,000 - 21,000 =  82,250 gms

3 17,500 ( 70,000gms* 25 %) + 77,000-19,250 =  75,250 gms

4 8,000 ( As per data) + 70,000-17.500            =  60,500 gms

Total year purchases =                                       =  286,250 gms

<u>Cost of purchases</u>

Quarter 1    68,250 gms  * $ 1.20     = $  81,900

Quarter 2   82,250 gms * $ 1.20      = $  98,700

Quarter 3   75,250 gms * $ 1,20     =  $ 90,300

Quarter 4   60,500 gms * $ 1,20    =   <u>$ 72,600</u>

Total purchases                                   $ 343,500

Computation of cash disbursements for purchases

Quarter 1 Payments = Opening Payables + 60 % of quarter 1

$ 5,600 + ( 60 %* $ 81,900) = $ 5,600 + $ 49,140 =               $ 54,740

Quarter 2 payments

(40 % of quarter 1) + ( 60 % of quarter 2)

($ 81,900 * 40 %) + ( $ 98,700 * 60 %)

$ 32,760 + $ 59,220                                               =                $ 91,980

Quarter 3 payments

(40 % of quarter 2) + ( 60 % of quarter 3)

($ 98,700 * 40 %) + ( $ 90,300 * 60 %)

$ 39,480 + $ 54,180                                                =                $ 93.660    

Quarter 4 payments

(40 % of quarter 3) + ( 60 % of quarter 4)

($ 90,300 * 40 %) + ( $ 72,600 * 60 %)

$ 36,120 + $ 43,560                                                =               <u> $ 79,680</u>

Total payments for purchases for the year                            $ 320,060

Computation of direct labor cost  

No of units * Estimated Direct labor hours * Labor rate per hour

Quarter 1  =    9,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  27.900

Quarter 2  =   12,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =        $  37.200

Quarter 3       11,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  34.100

Quarter 4       10,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         <u>$  31.000</u>

Total cost for Direct labour                                                        $ 130,200
