Answer:
No Journal entries will be required in either instance. But a note to the financial statement would be appropriate in explaining the declining stake in Marmon Inc.
Explanation:
A. Total share valuation was $1,000,000. ($900,000 + $110,000) which is made up of Albuquerque's holdings and the non controlling interests. This is equivalent holding of 89% by Albuquerque.
*the investment would have been recognized at cost to Albuquerque at $900,000.
But when Marmon sold additional 10,000 shares the interest reduces to 63%
*This wouldn't necessitate any journal entry by Albuquerque as a result of the additional issues of shares but the % stake in Marmon would show to have reduced as a note in its financial records.
And when a further 2,000 was issued Albuquerque stake drops to 61%
* Again this wouldn't necessitate any journal entry by Albuquerque as a result of the additional issues of shares but the % stake in Marmon would show to have reduced as a note in its financial records.

I believe this needs to come from a non monetary source. Pure competition allows for no price change between firms. So profit maximization needs to come from market share. I believe the answer would have to be in service levels or ease of business improvements. If you are forced to have the same price levels the levers to pull are few but the exist only customer service, ease of transacting, other value add initiatives. Just my thoughts
Answer:
60%
Explanation:
The computation of the utilization rate for the plant is shown below:
As we know that
Utilization rate = Actual output ÷ Design capacity
where
Actual output is 6,000 hammers per day
And, the design capacity is 10,000 hammers per day
So by considering the above information, the utilization rate is
= 6,000 hammers per day ÷ 10,000 hammers per day
= 60%
It is always expressed in a percentage form
