Business
1 answer:
Archy [21]3 years ago

Answer:

Of course you should be concerned about negative cash outflows resulting from investing or financing activities.

Negative cash outflows for investing activities means that the company purchased more fixed assets or securities this year than the ones that were sold. E.g. the company purchased new equipment for $100,000. Investing activities usually require large amounts of cash.

If financing activities yield negative numbers, it means that either the company paid too much in dividends, or they paid long term debts (e.g. retired bonds or paid back bank loans), but at the same time did not raise enough capital to offset them.

When you are analyzing the finances of a company, cash is king. A company might be very profitable, but it will not survive it its cash flows are negative. If there are enough positive cash flows from operating activities to offset these other cash outflows, then the company should be OK. But if operating cash flows cannot offset them, then the company should be concerned.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

C) The theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

The theory of Comparative Advantage is a theory of international trade and it comes into effect in a situation where the <u>opportunity cost of producing a good or offering by a service by a country is lower than that of other countries. </u>

Specifically, to understand the theory of comparative advantage the opportunity cost of production or offering a service has to be measured in terms of the trade off between those countries. It simply means when a country has the comparative advantage then it derives more benefits from other countries buying its products as compared to buying their products and vice versa.

In the question, the European Union has the Comparative advantage over South Africa because the trade-off between buying South Africa's edible fruits and nuts and selling other products to South Africa benefits the European countries.

European countries derive more benefits because South Africa buys their goods at a cost higher than it takes them to produce while they buy at the normal cost from South Africa. The <u>trade-off benefits Europe </u>

For Loss, it would be

= $1,010,000 - $990,000

Elodia [21]
<span>C. the labor market.

Dan will be looking into the labor market for two reasons, the first being that he requires two workers that are skilled. The second reason is that he needs this employment seven days a week, and it is rare for a worker to accept that amount of work hours.

So because it will be difficult for Dan to find labor, as he does his research, he will pay particular attention to the labor market.
