Modern BiotechnologyModern biotechnology refers to a number of techniques that involve the intentional manipulation of genes, cells and living tissue in a predictable and controlled manner to generate changes in the genetic make-up of an organism or produce new tissue. Examples of these techniques include: recombinant DNA techniques (r DNA or genetic engineering), tissue culture and mutagenesis. Traditional Biotechnology Traditional biotechnology refers to a number of ancient ways of using living organisms to make new products or modify existing ones. In its broadest definition, traditional biotechnology can be traced back to human's transition from hunter-gatherer to farmer. As farmers, humans collected wild plants and cultivated them and the best yielding strains were selected for growing the following seasons.

. A firm begins the year with a Book Value of $10 million. During the year it generates $5 million in net profits. It paid $1 mi

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

b) $12 million

Explanation:

The new Book Value of the firm at the bigining of next year is $12 million.

In the calulation of Net Pfofit, Interst on loan has already been deducted, so deducting it from the total calculation will be wrong.

hence, only dividend paid will be removed from the addition of the Book Value anf the Net profit.

Closing balance = Opening Book Value + Net Profit - Dividend Paid

Note - The Net Profit is already ne of interest on loan.

Closing balance = $10 + $5 - $3

Closing balance is $12

Dimas [21]

Answer:

COGS= $598,020

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Kevin owns a retail store, and during the current year, he purchased $610,000 worth of inventory. Kevin's beginning inventory was $67,000, and his ending inventory is $77,200. During the year, Kevin withdrew $1,780 in inventory for his personal use.

We need to deduct the inventory used for personal use.

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 67,000 + 610,000 - 77,200 - 1,780

COGS= $598,020

Today, you sold 540 shares of stock and realized a total return of 6.3 percent. You purchased the shares one year ago at a price

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

B. 5.40 percent

Explanation:

Let today's price per share be $X

Total return = [ (New value + Dividend - Old value) / Old price ] *100

Old value = $24 *540 = $12,960

Next, plug in the numbers to the formula;

0.063 = [ (540X + 117 - 12,960)/ 12,960 ]

0.063 = $[\frac{540X-12,843}{12,960} ]$

multiply both sides by 12,960;

0.063 *12,960 = 540X - 12,843

816.48 = 540X - 12,843

Add 12,843 from both sides and solve for X;

816.48 + 12,843 = 540X

13,659.48 = 540X

Divide both sides by 540;

13,659.48/ 540 = X

X = 25.295

Therefore, today's price per share = $25.30

Capital gains yield= (Today's price - Original price) /Original price

Capital gains yield = (25.295 -24) / 24

=0.05396 or 5.40%

Therefore, Capital gains yield is 5.40%

Answer:

PED = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values, price elastic

Explanation:

the price elasticity of demand (PED) using the midpoint method:

PED = % change in quantity / % change in price

% change in quantity = {(Q 2 − Q1 ) / [(Q2 + Q1)/2]} x 100 = {(200 − 300 ) / [(200 + 300)/2]} x 100 = -100 / 250 = -0.4
% change in price = {(P2 − P1 ) / [(P2 + P1)/2]} x 100 = {(1 − 0.75 ) / [(1 + 0.75)/2]} x 100 = 0.286

PED = -0.4 / 0.286 = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values
