Answer: C) $2,000 per week.

Explanation:

The slope of the project refers to the additional amount that it would cost to be able to finish the project faster than schedule.

In the question, the construction activity is for 14 weeks at a rate of $5,000 for the laborers per week. If you wanted to reduce this project duration to 10 weeks, you will have to spend an additional $2,000 more per week.

This $2,000 is therefore the slope of the activity.

Explanation:

The calculation of Consumer Price Index is shown below:-

CPI = ((Base year basket quantities × current year price) ÷ (Base year basket quantities × Base year prices)) × 100

= ((50 × $1.50) + (100 × $1.10)) ÷ ((50 × $1.20) + (100 × $1.00)) × 100

= (185 ÷ 160) × 100

= 115.6

The more conservative a firm's management is, the higher its total debt to total capital ratio [measured as (Short-term debt Lon
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The conservative approach is that the firm has greater level of working capital investment than the competitor or industry average. So to fund the higher level of working capital the company has a set of policy and targets related to the level of debt level which means the company will not be willing to borrow further money if their borrowing exceeds the set limit or benchmark. They might use the equity instruments (Preferred stock or Common equity) to fund the higher level of working capital.

So their no absolute argument whether the denominator will increase or the nominator will increase in the Total debt to capital ratio. Hence the statement is false.
