Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Penetration.

Explanation:

Penetration Pricing means that an initially low price for a new product or service attracts customers away from the competitors. The new company hopes that even if prices rise to normal levels, customers will continue to use their products. Penetration Pricing will yield higher returns on sales and push rivals out of the market if implemented long enough.

You are given the following information on Kaleb's Welding Supply: Profit margin 6.9 % Capital intensity ratio .78 Debt–equity r
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

0.1563946140 or 15.64%

Explanation:

The computation of the sustainable growth rate is shown below:

But before that we need to do the following calculations

As we know that

Profit margin = net income ÷ Sales

So,

0.069 = $86,000 ÷ Sales

Sales = $1,246,376.81159

Now

Capital intensity ratio = Total assets ÷ Sales

Total assets is

= $1,246,376.81159 × 0.78

= $972,173.91304

And,

Debt - Equity ratio = Debt ÷ Equity = 0.9

Now, if debt is 0.9, and equity is 1, Thereforetotal assets is 1.9 (0.9 + 1).

So,

Equity = Total assets x 1 ÷ 1.9

= $972,173.91304 ÷ 1.9

= $511,670.480547

And,  

Return on Equity (ROE) = Net income ÷ Equity

= $86,000 ÷ $511,670.480547

= 0.16807692307 or 16.807692307%

And,

Dividend payout ratio = Dividend ÷ net income

= $16,800 ÷ $86,000

= 0.1953488372

Now  

Retention ratio (b) = 1 - dividend payout

= 1 - 0.1953488372

= 0.8046511628

So,  

Sustainable growth rate (SGR) = (ROE x b) ÷ [ 1 - (ROE × b) ]

= (0.16807692307% × 0.8046511628) ÷ [ 1 - (0.16807692307% × 0.8046511628) ]

= 0.1563946140 or 15.64%

The drive three has a long line of cars at the window what should the drive thru cashier do
Dimas [21]

Undoubtedly, cashiers have undergone some training and guidance. If they are newly hired, they will likely be trainees with instructors nearby to support them.

Cars are going nowhere, customers are waiting. Some people are more patient than others.

The best way to deal with long lines of cars is to not put yourself under pressure. This can be harder than it sounds, as it's mostly a learnable skill.

A job as a cashier like this is a great place to learn skills that will be very useful, both personally and professionally, for a lifetime.

A single stock futures contract on a nondividend-paying stock with current price $180 has a maturity of one year.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a. $187.20.

b. $202.48.

c. $217.43.

Explanation:

Please find the below for detailed explanations and calculations:

We have the formula for determining the future price of the non-dividend-paying stock as below:

Future price = Spot price x (1+ annual risk free rate )n; which n = number of year(s) to maturity.

Thus, apply the general formula above, we have the below calculations:

a. Future price = 180 x (1+4%)^1 = $187.20;

b. Future price = 180 x ( 1+4%)^3 = $202.48;

c. Future price = 180 x (1+6.5%)^3 = $217.43.

Horses cost $10, pigs cost $3, and rabbits are only $0.50. A farmer buys 100 animals for $100, How many of each animal did he bu
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is that there are 5 horses, 1 pig and 94 rabbits.

Explanation:

Given information -

Horses cost = $10

Pigs = $3

Rabbits = $.50

There are total of 100 animals, which are bought for $100 in total.

So by using simple equations we can solve this problem,

where let number of horses be x

number of pigs be y

number of rabbits be z

so the first equation that we can make by using given information is -

x + y + z = 100 (total of 100 animals bought )  _ _ equation 1

10 x + 3 y + .5 z = $100 _ _ equation 2

Now multiplying equation 2 by 2 and then subtract that from equation 1

(10 x + 3 y + .5 z = $100) x 2

= 20 x + 6 y + z = $200  _ _ equation 3

Now subtracting equation 3 from 1 -

20 x + 6 y + z = $200

          -

x + y + z = 100

19 x + 5 y = 100

Here 19 x and 5 y have to be a multiple of 5 ( where x and y are integers ), therefore the only possible value of x here can be 5 and if the value of x =5 , then the value of y will be equal to 1,

19 x 5 + 5 x 1 = 100

Now putting the value of x and y in equation 2,

10 x 5 + 3 x 1 + .5 x z = $100

50 + 3 + .5 z = 100

.5 z = 47 ( 100 - 53 )

z = 47 / .5

z = 94
