Answer:

Purchases=  $57,530

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Production= 91,500*(1 - 0.18)= $75,030

Beginning inventory= $25,000

Desired ending inventory= $7,500

<u>To calculate the budgeted purchases, we need to use the following formula:</u>

<u></u>

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 75,030 + 7,500 - 25,000

Purchases=  $57,530

A firm has a long-term debt-equity ratio of .4. Shareholders’ equity is $1 million. Current assets are $200,000, and the current
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Total debt ratio is 33.33%

Explanation:

A long term debt to equity ratio of 0.4 tells that the value of long term debt is 0.4 or 40% of the value of the equity. If the value of the equity is $1 million, the value of long term debt is,

Long term debt = 0.4 * 1000000 = $400000

A current ratio is calculated by dividing the current assets by the current liabilities. It tells how many current assets are available to satisfy $1 of current liabilities. A current ratio of 2 means that for every $1 of current liability, $2 of current assets are available. Thus, current liabilities are half of current assets. If the value of current assets is $200000, the value of current liabilities is,

Current liabilities = 200000 * 1/2  = $100000

Total liabilities = 400000 + 100000 = $500000

A debt ratio is calculated by dividing the value of total debt or total liabilities by the value of total assets.

Total assets = total liabilities + total equity

Total assets = 500000 + 1000000

Total assets = $1500000 or $1.5 million

Total debt ratio = 500000 / 1500000

Total debt ratio = 1/3 or 0.3333 or 33.33%

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The expected price after 1 year would be$55.5

Explanation:

According to the given data,

Price of the stock (Po) = $50

Dividend after 1year (D1) = $2

Equity cost of capital (KE) =15%

The formula for calculating the price after 1 year i.e.,(P1 ) is

                         

                          Po = (D1 + P1 )/ 1+KE                                      $50= ($2 + P1) / (1+0.15)

                        P1 = [$50(1.15)] - $2 = $55.5

Suppose there are two states that do not trade: Iowa and Nebraska. Each state produces the same two goods: corn and wheat. For I
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Lowa should produce corn; Nebraska should produce Wheat

Explanation:

Two states: Iowa and Nebraska

Same two goods are produced by both of them: Corn and wheat

For lowa,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = 3 bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of wheat

For Nebraska,

Opportunity cost of producing wheat = (1 ÷ 3) bushels of corn

Opportunity cost of producing corn = 3 bushels of wheat

According to the concept of comparative advantage, a country is exporting the commodity in which it has a comparative advantage and a country has a comparative advantage in producing a commodity if the opportunity cost of producing that commodity is lower than the other country.

In our case, lowa should producing and exporting corn because the opportunity cost of producing corn is lower than the Nebraska and on the other hand, Nebraska should producing and exporting wheat because the opportunity cost of producing wheat is lower than the lowa.
