alexdok [17]

Answer:

The expected profit is -$13,162.

I would not recomend the investor to make this investment.

Explanation:

The expected profit can be calculated multypling the probabilities of every outcome and the profit of each outcome, and substracting the total invevstment.

The outcomes are:

1) probability 0.39 of a $23,000 loss,

2) probability 0.24 of a $8700 profit,

3) probability 0.12 of a $31,000 profit, and

4) probability 0.25 of breaking even

NOTE: It is assumed that the outcomes does not include the initial investment.

Then, the expected profit of this investment is:

$E(P)=[0.39*(-23,000)+0.24*8,700+0.12*31,000+0.25*0]-10,000\\\\E(P)=[-8,970+2,088+3,720+0]-10,000\\\\E(P)=-3,162-10,000\\\\E(P)=-13,162$

Calculating Residual Income Pelican Manufacturing earned operating income last year as shown in the following income statement:

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

(A) $425,000

(B) $24,350

Explanation:

(a) Average Operating Assets:

= (Beginning Operating Assets + Ending Operating Assets) ÷ 2

= ($390,000 + $460,000) ÷ 2

= $425,000

Therefore, the average operating assets is $425,000.

(b) Residual Income:

= Operating Income - (Minimum Rate of Return × Average Operating Assets)

= $66,850 - (10% × $425,000)

= $66,850 - $42,500

= $24,350

Zepler [3.9K]

Padco averages $15 million worth of inventory in all of its worldwide locations. they operate 51 weeks a year and each week averages $3 million in sales (at cost). their inventory turnover is 10.2 turns.

Inventory turnover is a financial ratio that demonstrates how frequently a company sells and replaces inventory over a specific time frame. The days it takes to sell the company's inventory on hand can then be determined by multiplying the number of days in the period by the inventory turnover formula.

Businesses can improve their decisions about pricing, production, marketing, and the acquisition of new inventory by calculating inventory turnover.

Inventory turnover quantifies how frequently a business can replenish the stocks it has sold during a specific time period. A slower ratio suggests either strong sales or insufficient inventory, while a quicker ratio suggests either weak sales or high sales.

The industries with the largest inventory turnover rates tend to be those with low margins and high volumes, like supermarkets and merchants.

The following is cost information for the Creamy Crisp Donut Company.Entrepreneur's potential earnings as a salaried worker = $5

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Creamy Crisp's total revenues exceed its total costs, including a normal profit, by $366,000

Explanation:

Creamy Crisp's total revenue exceeds its total cost, including a normal profit by =

When answering this we use all the actual costs and revenue and all the hypothetical figures, or the opportunity costs and revenue as we need to calculate total revenue exceeding costs and normal profits.

Total revenue actual + potential = Entrepreneur's potential earnings as a salaried worker $50,000 + Annual revenue from operations $380,000 + Value of entrepreneur's talent in the next best entrepreneurial activity $80,000 + Entrepreneur's forgone interest on personal funds used to finance the business $6,000

= $516,000

Total costs = Payments to workers $120,000 + Utilities (electricity, water, disposal) costs $8,000 + Annual lease on building = $22,000

= $150,000

Creamy Crisp's total revenues exceed its total costs including a normal profit by $516,000 - $150,000 = $366,000

Since normal profit is included and not excluded normal profit shall not be computed separately and the final answer is $366,000
