Answer:
d. decrease by $200.000.
Explanation:
The computation of the segment profit is shown below:
Segment profit = Segment revenues - Segment cost
= $1.2 million - $1.0 million
= $0.2 million or $200,000
Since the management want to drop the segment which results to decrease in the overall corporate profits that means the segment profit will also got decreased by $200,000
The overhead cost is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
Answer:
Most of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one and found the attached image.
CPI = (current year price × base year quantity) / (base year price × Base year quantity)
CPI for bread in current year = [($1.50 × 2,000) / ($1 × 2,000)] x 100 = 150
CPI for laptops in current year = [($1,500 × 100) / ($2,000 × 100)] x 100 = 75
CPI for movies in current year = [($7 × 50) / ($5 × 50)] x 100 = 140
CPI for current year = (CPI for bread x weight of bread) + (CPI of laptops x weight of laptops) + (CPI of movies x weight of movies) = (150 x $2,250/$227,530) + (75 x$225,000/$227,530) + (140 x $280/$227,530) = 1.48 + 74.17 + 0.17 =75.82

Answer:
E) It would not necessarily be considered high elsewhere.
Explanation:
The US inflation rate during 1979 was 11.26%, during 1980 it was 13.55%, and during 1981 it was 10.33%. These numbers may seem very high for American standards, but they aren't really high once you compare them to other nation's inflation rate.
For example, if we look at what is happening in two South American countries right now; Currently Venezuela is facing a hyperinflation measured by millions, and Argentina's current inflation rate is around 60%.
Back in the 1980s, hyperinflation rates were much more common. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Nicaragua, all suffered from hyperinflation (inflation rates in the 1,000s).
The US dollar is considered a very stable currency, that is why an inflation rate of around 10% was considered extremely high for American standards, but not so high compared to the rest of the world.
