Question Completion with Options:

O sticking closely with the existing business lineup and pursuing opportunities that those businesses present.

O Divesting certain businesses and retrenching to a narrower base of business operations.

O Widening the company's business scope by making new acquisitions in new industries.

Answer:

The broad categories of action for crafting strategic moves to improve a diversified company's overall performance are:

O sticking closely with the existing business lineup and pursuing opportunities that those businesses present.

O Divesting certain businesses and retrenching to a narrower base of business operations.

O Widening the company's business scope by making new acquisitions in new industries.

Explanation:

In addition to pursuing existing business opportunities, a diversified company can increase its performance indexes by divesting itself of certain unprofitable lines of business or slow-growth businesses and focusing its resources on cash cows and stars.  The pursuit of stars will lead it to make new acquisitions in relatively new industries in order to remain attractive to investors, otherwise, it runs the risk of growing into extinction like the historical dinosaur.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: longer than

Explanation:

The discounted payback period simply refers to the number of years that will be required for the cumulative discounted cash inflows to be able to cover a project's initial investment.

It should be noted that the discounted payback period for a project will be longer than the payback period for the project given a positive, non-zero discount rate. This is because the time value of money will be taken into consideration, hence, this will bring about a longer time.

Logan owns a horse ranch. Logan dislikes horses, but he opened the ranch because he heard it was a lucrative business and he wan
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Logan Horse Ranch

The most accurate is:

e. None of the above are correct

Explanation:

Logan's payment to his brother, Luke, of $500 per hour, is not a reasonable business expense that can be deductible.  Surely, $500 per hour is not a going rate for cleaning the horse stalls per hour.  With Lucy doing grocery shopping for Logan, it does not resonate like an ordinary and necessary expense for the business. Therefore, options A to D are not correct.  This leaves only option E as the most accurate.

The payment to entrepreneurship is called
Novay_Z [31]

<span>Profit is the payment to entrepreneurship. When the entity’s amount earned exceeds the amount spent in buying, operating, or producing something and it has a financial gain, this is then the term we call the profit.  This is what an entity obtains when the amount of revenue from a business activity exceeds the expenses, costs and taxes which are all needed to sustain the activity. The owner may or may not decide to use the profit on the business.  This is also defined as the money the business makes after all the expenses have been taken into account. It is any company’s goal to consistently earn profit. This is the reason why much of business performance is based on the various forms related to profitability. </span>

Brief Exercise 24-2 Hsung Company accumulates the following data concerning a proposed capital investment: cash cost $216,758, n
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Net Present Value = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.

Explanation:

Capital outlay = $216,758

Cash inflow every year = $43,900

Period = 10 Years

Net Present Value = Present value of cash inflow - Present value of cash outflow

Present Value of Cash Inflow = Cash inflow each year X Present value factor of cash inflows for years

= $43,900 X 5.22

= $229,158

Present value of cash outflow = $216,758

Net Present Value = $229,158 - $216,758 = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.

Net Present Value measures the net effect of an investment discounted at current rate of interest, i.e. cost of capital.

Final Answer

Net Present Value = $12,400

Since net present value is positive, the investment shall be made.
