Karolina [17]

Answer:

It is 15.68 times

Explanation:

Price-Earnings Ratio = Market Price per share (MPS)/Earning per share (EPS).

Where EPS = $231,971 /55,100

                   = $4.21

Hence, Price-Earnings Ratio = 66/4.21

                                               =15.68 times

P/E ratio shows the expectations of the market and is the price you  pay per unit of current earnings.

The  ratio is as well being used for valuing companies and to find out whether they are overvalued or undervalued most especially by the investors.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: market cannibalization.

Explanation:

Market cannibalization refers to the loss of revenues as a result of the introduction of a new product by the same company. The initial purpose of the firm is to spread its market share but the product introduced is so similar or covers the same need than the previous that it ends up replacing it instead of acquiring more consumers.  

Market cannibalization also takes place when franchises of the same firm open stores too close to each other than one of them ends up capturing all consumers which replace the first store operating in the area.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

<u>D. Permitting Timothy to make up time lost due to the observance of religious practices is a reasonable religious accommodation.</u>

Student tuition at ABC University is $250 per semester credit hour. The state supplements school revenue by matching student tui
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

2.46

Explanation:

Given:

Student tuition at ABC University per semester credit hour = $250

Average class size = 30

Labor costs per class = $3,000

materials costs per student per class = $10

overhead costs per class = $15,000

a) Now,

The multifactor productivity ratio = \frac{\textup{Output}}{\textup{Input}}

also,

Input = Labor costs + Total materials costs + Total overhead costs

or

Input = $3,000 + ( $10 × 30 ) + $15,000 = $18,300

And,

Output

= Average class size × credit hour × ( Student tuition + state supplements )

= 30 × 3 × ( $250 + $250)

= $45,000

Therefore,

The multifactor productivity ratio = \frac{\textup{45,000}}{\textup{18,300}}

= 2.46
