Answer:

The statement that could be made to the company President is that:

b. This year our accounts receivable turnover was up and our average collection period was down compared to the 2 previous years.

Explanation:

Since the credit sales increased by 20% with overall revenue but the average balance in the accounts receivable remained exactly as the last two year's, it means that the accounts receivable turnover have improved together with the average collection period.  Given the noticeable improvements that have been instituted recently, accounts receivable are being collected timely.

You own a portfolio that is 34 percent invested in Stock X, 22 percent invested in Stock Y, and 44 percent invested in Stock Z.
Sonja [21]

Answer:

13.86%

Explanation:

34% was invested into stock X with an expected return of 11%

22% was invested into stock Y with an expected return of 18%

44% was invested into stock Z with an expected return of 14%

The expected return on the portfolio can be calculated using the formula below

Expected return= Sum of ( weight of stock×return of stock)

= (0.34×11%)+(0.22×18%)+(0.44×14%)

= 3.74+3.96+6.16

= 13.86%

Hence the expected return on the portfolio is 13.86%

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

D. Generates rents that might go to foreigners.

Explanation:

An import quota is the trade restriction imposed by the government on the quantity of the particular commodity to be imported from another country. It protects domestic producers from foreign competition. Overseas goods are generally very cheap compared to locally produced goods, which can destroy a business from the market and can make foreign companies be the leader of the market, who can control the price and quality of the product. Therefore, it very helpful to the local producer in sustaining and generating profit in the market.

musickatia [10]

Answer:

Charlotte has the priority to claim Autumn as her dependent even though William covered 70% of her living expenses during the year. In order for a parent to be able to claim a child as a dependent, he/she must live with the child for more than half the year. In this case, since William left the house, Charlotte has preference over claiming Autumn as her dependent (even though William lived with Autumn for 10 months). Also, a parent always has priority over other relatives including a grandparent.
