Answer: 0.3
Explanation:
The Sharpe ratio is simply used by organizations and investors in order to compare the return on an investment to its risk.
From the question, we are informed that a portfolio has a 30% standard deviation generated a return of 15% last year when T-bills were paying 6.0%.
The Sharpe ratio will be:
= (15% - 6.0%)/30%
= 9%/30%
= 0.09/0.3
= 0.3
When allocating their assets bankers take into account their reserve equipment. Property, plant and equipment is initially measured at its cost, subsequently measured either using a cost or revaluation model, and depreciated.
Answer:
Current ratio is 2.5:1
Quick ratio 1.9:1
Explanation:
Current ratio =current assets/current laibilities:1
current assets =cash+marketable securities+accounts receivables+inventory
current assets=$225000+$115,000+$112000+$158,000
current assets =$610,000
current liabilities=accounts payable=$244,000
Current ratio=610000/244000
current ratio=2.5
:1
quick ratio =(current assets-inventory)/current liabilities:1
quick ratio=(610000-158000)/244000
=1.9:1
The current ratio suggests the company has liquid resources that is more than double of current liabilities which can used in discharging debt obligations in the normal course of business
Quick ratio excludes inventory from the ratio since inventory is most difficult item to convert to cash
Answer:
a) Contribution from the special order= $52,640.
b) Stuart should accept the order
Explanation:
The amount of contribution to profit from the special order is the difference between the revenue and the relevant cost of variable cost of the special order.
The relevant cost of the special order is equal the sum of all variable cost only.
Note that the allocated facility overhead is irrelevant to whether to accept or reject the order. This is so because the costs would still be incurred either way.
Relevant variable costs of special order = (880 + 510) × 47 = $65,330
Sales revenue = 2,510 × 47 = $117,970.00
Contribution from the special order =$117,970.00 - $65,330
= $52,640.00
B) Stuart should accept the special order because it would increase its profit by $52,640.
