On january 2, 20x3, kean company purchased a 30 percent interest in pod company for $250,000. Pod reported net income of $100,00
Annette [7]

Answer:$277,000 should be reported by Kean.

Explanation:

Amount of investment Kean should report = Original cost of investment + share of net income of investors -share of investors dividend.

But ,

share of net income of investors = 30% of net income reported by Pod

= 30 % x $100,000= $30,000

share of investors dividend=  30% of dividend declared by Pod company

= 30 % x 10,000 = $3000

Therefore,

Amount of investment Kean should report = $250,000 + $30,000 - $3,000

=$277,000

An industry consists of three firms with sales of $310,000, $725,000, and $405,000.
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

A. 3,789

B. 100%

C.5,000

Explanation:

(a) Total market ($'000) = 310 + 725 + 405 = 1,440

Firm 1 share = 310 / 1,440 x 100 = 21.53%

Firm 2 share = 725 / 1,440 x 100 = 50.35%

Firm 3 share = 405 / 1,440 x 100 = 28.12%

HHI = (21.53)2 + (50.35)2 + (28.12)2 = 3,789

(b) Since there are only 3 firms in market, therefore the four-firms concentration ratio will be 100% b

(c) Total revenue share of the two firms = (310 + 405) / 1440 x 100 = 49.65%

Post-merger HHI = (49.65)2 + (50.35)2 = 5,000

Yes. If the guideline considers any post-merger HHI above 1800 as highly concentrated market, this merger will be probably attempt to block a horizontal merger between two firms with sales.

Which of these statements is false? A company comparison should not be made with industry averages if the company does not clear
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A company comparison should not be made with industry averages if the company does not clearly fit into any one industry.

Explanation:

In Business management, it is important to note that many companies will not clearly fit into any one industry.

Hence, when using industry averages, it is often necessary to use an industry that the firm best fits rather than randomly picking up any industry. Additionally, the analysis of an organization's financial statements would be more meaningful if the results are compared with industry averages and with results of competitors.

Any financial service sought after, should use its best judgment by analyzing and identifying which industry the firm best fits.
