Answer:

see below

Explanation:

he farmers must have considered the ability to repay back loans when making the decision. The ability of a business to meet its current obligations is expressed by the current ratio.

The current ratio or working capital ratio communicates a firm's ability to repay debts as they become due. The higher the ratio, the better.

the current ratio is calculated as current assets/current liabilities

For Firm A,

current ratio =$150,000/ $125,000.

=1.2

For Firm B,

current ratio =$100,000/$75,000

=1.333

Firm B has a better current ratio than Firm A. Firm B is in a better position to repay loans compared to Firm A.

An oligopoly exists when a firm offers a product that has no close substitutes, making the firm the sole source of supply.

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

B) False

Explanation:

That would be a monopoly (only one supplier).

An oligopoly is a market where there are very few suppliers, and competition is very limited since the barriers to entry are very significant.

For example, the automobile industry is an oligopoly. There are only a few car manufacturers in the world, and they all are very large corporations. It costs hundreds of millions of dollars to introduce a new car model, and every time that happens, the corporations must carry on expensive advertising and promotional campaigns.

Statement of cash flows

likoan [24]

Answer:

Palmetto Statement of Cashflows

For the Year Ended December 31, 2013

Cashflow from Operating Activities

Net Cashflow from Operaing Activities $15,600

Cashflow from Investing Activities

Net Cashflow from Investing Activities ($23,000)

Cashflow from Financing Activities

Net Cashflow from Financing Activities ($4,500)

Net Increase (Decrease) ($11,900)

Add: Beginning of Period Cash balance $32,000

Ending Cash Balance $20,100

b. Operating Cash flow relates to the normal business operations of the business. A Net Cash Inflow from this therefore means that the business made a profit from its normal operations of selling fast food during 2013.

c. Investing Activities relate to transaction involving Fixed Assets as well as the stocks and bonds of other companies. The Net Cash flow was probably caused by Palmetto buying more Fixed Assets than they disposed of in the year 2013.

d. Financing activities relate to how the business is financed in terms of Equity and debt. The payments of Dividends therefore fall under here as they relate to Equity. A net cash outflow here therefore probably means that Palmetto paid out dividends to shareholders. They might have also repaid some loans but judging by how small the outflow is, the loans were either small or it was only dividends that were paid out.
