Answer:

2017

ROI = 18%

Profit Margin = 30%

2018

ROI = 25.2%

Investment Turnover = 84%

Explanation:

The formulas for the required ratio are as follows,

ROI = Operating income / Average invested assets

Profit margin = Operating Income / Sales  

For 2017,

ROI = 6,948,000 / 38,600,000 = 0.18 = 18%

Profit margin = 6,948,000 / 23,160,000 = 0.3 = 30% of sales

For 2018, we compute increased sales first

Sales = 23,160,000 * 1.4 = $32,424,000 after 40% increase

with profit margin staying the same, profit for 2018

Profit = $32,424,000 * 0.3 = $9,727,200

Using the earlier formulas,

ROI = $9,727,200 / 38,600,000 = 0.252 = 25.2%

Investment turnover = Sales / Average invested assets

Investment Turnover = $32,424,000 / 38,600,000  = 0.84 = 84%

Hope that helps.

Answer:

1. Return on investment for 2017

ROI = Operating income/Average invested assets x 100

ROI = $6,948,000/$38,600,000 x 100

ROI = 18%

2. Profit margin for 2017

Profit margin

= Operating income/Sales x 100

= $6,948,000/$23,160,000 x 100

= 30%

3.  Forecast sales for 2018

= 140% x $23,160,000

= $32,424,000

Forecast operating income for 2018

= 140% x $6,848,000

= $9,587,200

Return on investment in 2018

ROI = $9,587,200/$38,600,000 x 100

ROI = 24.84%

4. Investment turnover for 2018

   = Sales/Average invested assets x 100

   = $32,424,000/$38,600,000

   = 0.84 times

Explanation:

Return on investment is the ratio of operating income to average invested assets

Profit margin is the ratio of operating income to sales

Since forecast sales in 2018 increased by 40%, thus, the forecast sales are 140% of original sales (140% x $23,160,000), Increase in sales increases the operating income by 40% (140% x $6,948,000).

Investment turnover is the ratio of sales to average invested assets.

Suppose there are only two producers of aircraft in the world, AirCraft in the United States and AirEurope in the European Union
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

1. AirEurope should produce if it wants to maximize its profit.

2.  False

Explanation:

New payoffs after subsidy:

Aircraft/ AirEurope               Produce     Not Produce

Produce                                 -3 , <u>6</u>              75 , 0

Not Produce                          0 , 74              0 , 0

With a $9 million subsidy, regardless of whether Aircraft produces or not, AirEurope should<u> produce</u> if it wants to maximize its profit.

The statement is false (Aircraft would earn a negative payoff if it enters).
