Business

liubo4ka [24]2 years ago

Answer:

66.67%

Explanation:

A firm has an EPS of $12

The dividend paid is $4

The first step is to calculate the payout

= 4/12

= 0.3333×100

= 33.33

Therefore the Plowback ratio can be calculated as follows

= 1-33.33%

= 0.667×100

= 66.67%

Hence the Plowback ratio is 66.67%

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

E. Deep-level

Explanation:

Deep-level diversity can be described as traits like values, beliefs, and attitudes that are not observable early but more direct experience makes it to become understood later.

Examples of what indicates deep-level diversity are difference in values, and personality differences between people.

Therefore, deep-level diversity refers to diversity with respect to attributes that are less easy to observe initially but that can be inferred after more direct experience.

The flexible response policy increased the military budget. how do you think this affected the nuclear arms race?
mrs_skeptik [129]
First if all remember that the flexible policy was created as an strategy to calls for a reaction <span>that can be easily modified to respond to war circumstances. This means the government is giving more power to the arms race because this strategy is not only limited to enhance nuclear arms but any weapon. Of course that budget is not going to be used for many other rograms as agriculture or health which are also important. </span>

Prepare income statements based on variable costing for each of the 2 years. 2.Prepare income statements based on absorption cos
enot [183]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, it is missing the accounts and numbers, so I looked for a similar question:

<em>The Rehe Comany sells its razors at $3 per unit. The company uses a first-in, first-out actual costing system. A fixed manufacturing cost rate is computed at the end of each year by dividing the actual fixed manufacturing costs by the actual production units. The following data are related to its first two years of operation: </em>

<em>                    2011 2012 </em>

<em>Sales 1000 units  1200 units </em>

<em>Costs: </em>

<em>Variable manufacturing  700 500</em>

<em>Fixed manufacturing  700 700</em>

<em>Variable operating (marketing) 1000 1200 </em>

<em>Fixed operating (marketing)  400 400</em>

<em />

                                                           2011                  2012

Sales                                               1000 units         1200 units

Production                                          1400                  1000  

Costs:  

Variable manufacturing                      $700               $500

per unit $0.50

Fixed manufacturing                           $700               $700

Variable operating (marketing)         $1000             $1200

Fixed operating (marketing)               $400               $400

cogs under absorption costing 2011 = ($1,400 / 1,400) x 1,000 = $1,000

cogs under absorption costing 2012 = $400 + ($1,200 / 1,000) x 800 = $1,360

1.                                    INCOME STATEMENTS

                                      VARIABLE COSTING

                                                             2011                    2012

Total sales revenue:                        $3,000                $3,600            

Opening inventory:                               ($0)                 ($200)

Variable manufacturing:                   ($700)                 ($500)

<u>Ending inventory:                               $200                   $100 </u>

Gross contribution margin:             $2,500               $3,000

<u>Variable operating:                         ($1,000)              ($1,200)</u>  <u> </u>

Contribution margin:                        $1,500                $1,800  

Fixed manufacturing:                         ($700)                ($700)

<u>Fixed operating:                                ($400)                ($400) </u>

Net operating income:                       $400                  $700

2.                                   INCOME STATEMENTS

                                   ABSORPTION COSTING

                                                             2011                    2012

Total sales revenue:                        $3,000                $3,600            

<u>COGS:                                             ($1,000)                ($1,360) </u>

Gross margin:                                  $2,000                $2,240

<u>Operating costs:                             ($1,400)               ($1,600) </u>

Net operating income:                       $600                   $640

3. Under variable costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $0.50 (variable production costs per unit) = $200.

Under absorption costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $1 (production cost per unit) = $400

Since closing inventory is $200 higher under absorption costing, then net operating income during 2011 increases by $200.

4. a) Variable costing is more likely to result in inventory buildups. Since variable costing determines the value of closing inventory only using variable manufacturing costs, their value is much lower. E.g. in this case the value of closing inventory 2011 under variable costing is $200, while under absorption costing it is $400. This means that less costs are transferred from one year to another.

b) Cost of goods sold must include all production costs (both variable and fixed). This way COGS costs cannot be over estimated during one year and under estimated the next.
