Answer:

1. Rate of Interest = Net operating expenses/Average operating assets

Osaka = $210000/$1000000 = 0.21 = 21%  

Yokohama = $720000 / $4000000 = 0.18 = 18%

2.                                                Osaka        Yokohama

Average operating assets   $1,000,000    $4,000,000

M. required return at 15%     $150,000       $600,000

Net operating income          $210,000       $720,000    

Minimum required return     <u>$150,000  </u>     <u>$600,000</u>

Residual income                   <u>$60,000  </u>     <u>$120,000</u>

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

d) He earned a lower interest rate than he expected

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Invested amount ten years ago = $1,000

Expected amount = $1,800

Today amount = $1,680

Based on the above information,

Since the bond is based on the floating rate not the fixed rate that results in the value of the investment to $1,800

And, the today amount is $1,680 i.e. less than the expected amount so the internet rate should be less as compared with the expected rate

hence, correct option is d.

Mattel, the maker of barbie dolls, frequently shows television ads aimed at children on saturday mornings, when many children ar
qaws [65]

This most likely depicts an ethical problem because children may be deceived about what Barbie can do.

As some of these ads mix cartoon-type animation and “real” shots of the dolls, children may think that their Barbies can do specific types of actions based from the advertisement. This would also most likely lead to broken Barbies because children may copy the things that they saw in the ads. This is somewhat a form of false advertising.

Johnston Company has budgeted production of 11,600 units and sales of 14,400 units in February. Each unit requires 15 minutes of
kap26 [50]

Answer:

$43,500

Explanation:

Direct labor costs refer to the salaries that are paid to the employees that perform a job that is related to the production of a good. In this case, it would be the wages of the employees that work in the production of the units budgeted.

To calculate the total cost, first you have to calculate the amount of hours require to produce 11,600 units:

      1 unit        →  15 minutes

11,600 units    →          x

x=(11,600*15)/1= 174,000 minutes

1 hour →   60 minutes

    x    ←    174,000 minutes

x=(1*174,000)/60= 2,900 hours

Now, you can calculate  the total budgeted direct labor costs by multiplying the labor rate per hour for the number of hours needed to manufacture the units budgeted:

$15*2,900= $43,500

According to this, the answer is that the total budgeted direct labor costs for February is $43,500.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2.14 times

The computation of the current ratio is shown below:

Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities

where,

Current assets is

= Cash + marketable securities + account receivable + prepaid expense + inventory

= $10,000 + $20,000 + $30,500 + $2,000 + $34,000

= $96,500

And, the current liabilities is account payable i.e $45,000

So, the current ratio is

= $96,500 ÷ $45,000

= 2.14 times

We simply applied the above formula
