Answer:
b. Created brand marks and identities
Explanation:
Before industrialization, usual commodities (FMCG - fast moving consumer goods) were unmarked and not connected to a specific brand or image. Sugar was simply referred to as sugar for example, and the same applied to similar products.
Afterward, the notion of brand and brand identity emerged and products became differentiated by brand and company. People started to think and ask questions before buying: "Which brand of sugar should I buy?". The brand usually reflects the consumer's status, social position and preferences.
Answer:
If you had purchased 10 shares of GoPro at the IPO (Initial Public Offering) on June 26, 2014 at 31.34, you would have spent <u>$313.40</u>.
If you were more of a “gambler” than an “investor”, and you saw the market shoot up for GoPro and hit 86.97 just 3 months later and decided to SELL, you would have recognized a capital gain of <u>$869.70 - $313.40 = $556.30</u>.
This would have resulted in a YIELD of <u>($556.30 / $313.40) x 100 = 177.5%</u>.
Let’s say you hung on to your 10 shares of GoPro, believing that it would get even better. Today it is listed at 4.42. If you were to sell, you would recognize a loss of <u>$44.20 - $313.40 = -$269.20</u>.
This would result in a YIELD of <u>(-$269.20 / $313.40) x 100 = -85.9%</u>.
The average annual yield for 5.5 years would then be <u>-12%</u>.
Look up GoPro today. GoPro currently trading at <u>$8.63 (January 7, 2021)</u>.
Explanation:
1 + 0.859 = (1 + r)⁵°⁵
⁵°⁵√1.859 = ⁵°⁵√(1 + r)⁵°⁵
1.12 = 1 + r
r = -0.12 (since the yield was negative, r must be negative)
Answer:45 percent
Explanation:
saving account before transfer=$7870
Saving account after transfer=7870+6456=14326
Percentage increase=(14326-7870)/14326 x 100
Percentage increase=6456/14326 x 100
Percentage increase=0.45 x 100
Percentage increase=45
Answer:
1.625
Explanation:
Debt to equity ratio = Debt ÷ Equity
or
1.75 = Debt ÷ Equity
or
Debt = 1.75 × Equity
also,
Total assets = Debt + Equity
or
$275 million = 1.75 × Equity + Equity
or
$275 million = 2.75 × Equity
or
Equity = $100 million
Therefore,
Debt = $275 million - Equity
= $275 million - $100 million
= $175 million
Now,
after issuance,
Total debt = $175 million + $20 million
= $195 million
and,
Equity = $100 million + $20 million
= $120 million
Therefore,
Southern’s debt-to-equity ratio after the issuance
= $195 million ÷ $120 million
= 1.625
