You are thinking about the things that can go wrong on your trip home over the Thanksgiving break. You have booked a flight with

US-Scareways. You know that in 38% of the cases the company has canceled the flight you were on. Should such a thing occur, there would be no other air travel option home for you. As a backup, your friend Walter has offered you a ride back. However, you know that Walter only has a seat in his car for you with 72% probability. What is the probability of you making it home for the holidays?

Answer:

The probability of you making it home for the holidays is:

= 45%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Probability of Scareways flights being canceled = 38%

Probability of successfully traveling with Scareways = 62% (100 - 38%)

Probability of getting a seat in Walter's car = 72%

Therefore, the probability of making it home for the holidays = the combined probabilities (either Scareways flight or Walter's car)

= 62% * 72%

= 0.62 * 0.72

= 0.4464

= 45%

Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 40% increase

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a)  

Increase in sales = 20%

So last  unit sale

= Unit sales ÷ increased unit sales percentage

= 60,000 ÷ 1.2

= 50,000

Previous year operating income  is

= Last unit sales × (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit) - Fixed expenses

= 50,000 × ($50-$30) - $500,000

= $500,000

Current Net operating income  is

= Current units sales × (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit) - Fixed expenses

= 60,000 × ($50-$30) - $500,000

= $700,000

b)

Percentage increase in net operating income is

= (Current Net operating income - Previous year operating income) ÷ Previous year operating income

= ($700,000 - $500,000) ÷ $500,000

= 40% increase

The net operating income is the income which is come after deducting all the variable cost, fixed cost from the sales revenue i.e earned by the company

A useful way of standardizing financial statements is to choose a ____ and then express each item relative to the _____.
bulgar [2K]

The most useful way of standardizing financial statements is to choose a _<u>base year</u>,_ and then express each item in the period under review relative to the _amounts____ in the base year.

<h3>What are comparative financial statements?</h3>

Comparative financial statements compare a particular financial statement with previous statements. Previous financial statements are presented in side-by-side columns with the latest figures. With this, investors are able to track a company's progress over some periods and compare the company's financial results and performance with its industry competitors.

Thus, financial statements can be compared using financial ratios, which express the relationships between the various items within a financial statement, or using a base year.

Explanation:

The present value of $97,000 per year after retirement for 35 years is computed thus:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the plan rate of return of 6.5%

nper is 35 years(years after retirement)

pmt is the amount required per year

fv is not applicable is taken as zero

=-pv(6.5%,35,97000,0)=$1,327,634.80  

The amount needed in the account at retirement is the future value of the plan.

Regular yearly payment into the plan is =pmt

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

=-pmt(6.5%,35,0,1327634.80)=$ 10,703.74
