Answer:

Andrews's ROE would decrease

Explanation:

Return on equity is an example of a profitability ratio.

Profitability ratios measure the ability of a firm to generate profits from its asset

Return on equity = net income / average total equity

Using the Dupont formula, ROE can be determined using:

ROE = Net profit margin x asset turnover x financial leverage

ROE = (Net income / Sales) x (Sales/Total Assets) x (total asset / common equity)

If asset turnover decreases and other ratios remain constant, ROE declines

Slavin Corporation manufactures two products, Alpha and Delta. Each product requires time on a single machine. The machine has a
8090 [49]

Answer:

a. How many Alphas and Deltas should the company produce each month to maximize monthly profit?

  • 150 Alphas
  • 80 Deltas

b. If the company produces at the level found in requirement (a), how much will monthly profit increase over the current production schedule?

  • $480 increase (or 75% increase)

Explanation:

                                                       Alpha            Delta

Price                                                $120             $150

Variable costs per unit :

  • Material                                    $20              $35
  • Labor                                        $26              $37
  • Overhead                                <u> $14  </u>            <u> $14   </u>

Contribution margin per unit          $60              $64

Fixed costs :

  • Manufacturing $8,000
  • Marketing and administrative $5,000
  • total                                                $13,000

Machine hours per unit                     2.0               2.5

Machine hours used                                  495

Machine hours available                           500

Quantity produced                             110               110

Maximum demand                             150              150

Profit                                                          $640

Contribution margin per machine hour:

                                                           $30               $25.60

this means you should produce as many Alphas as possible = 150. Production of 150 Alphas will consume 300 machine hours and the remaining 200 hours can be used to produce 80 Deltas.

Monthly profit:

[(150 x $60) + (80  x $64)] - 13,000 = $9,000 + $5,120 - $13,000 = $1,120, which represents a $480 increase (or 75% increase)

Vicki entered into a written contract to buy a car from Valley Motors. During the negotiations, the sales representative said th
Bingel [31]

Answer:

No she won't.

Explanation:

Vicki will not be able to present evidence as to the sales representative's statements concerning the warranty that "This writing is the full and final expression of the parties' agreement; anything said before signing or while signing is irrelevant." thereby excluding the car's warranty.

Hence, any evidence of the discussion of the warranty would most likely be excluded by the parol evidence rule.
