Oksanka [162]

Answer:

2. Limited supply would increase the price

Explanation:

In the given case the vendor sells in advance four thousand units for $300. While the installed capacity of the factory being to produce 1000 smartphones every month.

Expected sales being 500 units per month.

During the first few months, since the seller has already successfully sold 4000 smartphone units, high demand for the smartphones is evident.

Since the supply is limited to 1000 units only in a month and the quantity demanded being more as is evident by 4000 units being pre sold, during the initial phase, this would create a high demand.

And since the supply is limited, the seller will have to increase the price as the demand is lot more.

A debtor owed a creditor $1,200 on a promissory note that was due on August 1. After the debtor told the creditor that he might
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The correct option is C. Yes, because the debtor incurred a different obligation than he already had.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as the options are omitted. The question is therefore completed before answering the question by providing the options as follows:

A. No, because the debtor incurred no additional detriment that would serve as consideration for the new agreement.

B. Yes, because it would have cost the creditor $1,200 to purchase the entertainment system himself.

C. Yes, because the debtor incurred a different obligation than he already had.

D. Yes, because the new agreement between the debtor and the creditor is enforceable with or without

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows.

It is possible to enforce the two parties' new agreement as an accord.

An accord can be described as an agreement in which one party to an existing contract agrees to accept some other, different performance from the other party in lieu of the performance that the other party is obligated to provide. In principle, an agreement must be backed by payment, but the consideration can be less than the amount agreed upon in the preceding contract if it is of a different character or the claim is to be paid to a third party. The responsibility of the debtor to supply the creditor with a new entertainment system was enough fresh consideration to constitute a legal agreement in this case.

When a party's responsibility is modified in some way, as the debtor's duty was in this case, the preceding legal duty rule does not apply. It makes no difference whether the creditor's benefit in the accord arrangement is equal to the original debt's worth; courts will find appropriate consideration if the consideration is fresh or different in any way. The difference in the debtor's obligation, that is, payment is in the form of an entertainment system rather than cash) is enough to sustain the accord arrangement, regardless of how much the entertainment system would have cost the creditor.

The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) does not apply because the original agreement was not for the sale of goods. The underlying commitment in this case was to pay a debt secured by a promissory note.

Therefore, the correct option is C. Yes, because the debtor incurred a different obligation than he already had.

Hardwig Inc. is considering whether to pursue a restricted or relaxed current asset investment policy. The firm's annual sales a
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

d. 2.24%

Explanation:

total annual sales = $3,600,000

fixed asset turnover = total sales / fixed assets = 4, that means that total fixed assets = $3,600,000 / 4 = $900,000

debt = 50% = $450,000

equity = 50% = $450,000

EBIT = $150,000

net income = $150,000 x (1 - 40%) = $90,000

restricted policy:

asset turnover = 2.5

sales = $3,600,000 x (1 - 15%) = $3,060,000

EBIT = $135,000

net income = $81,000

assets = $3,060,000 / 2.5 = $1,224,000

equity = $1,224,000 x 50% = $612,000

ROE = $81,000 / $612,000 = 13.24%

relaxed policy:

asset turnover = 2.2

EBIT = $150,000

net income = $90,000

assets = $3,600,000 / 2.2 = $1,636,364

equity = 50% x $1,636,364 = $818,182

ROE = $90,000 / $818,182 = 11%

difference between ROEs = 13.24% - 11% = 2.24%

You are considering a project with an initial cost of $7,500. What is the payback period for this project if the cash inflows ar
Sliva [168]

Answer:

A. 3.21 years

Explanation:

In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:

In year 0 = $7,500

In year 1 = $1,100

In year 2 = $1,640

In year 3 = $3,800

In year 4 = $4,500

If we sum the first 3 year cash inflows than it would be $6,540

Now we deduct the $6,540 from the $7,500 , so the amount would be $960 as if we added the fourth year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it

And, the next year cash inflow is $4,500

So, the payback period equal to

= 3 years + $960 ÷ $4,500

= 3.21 years

In 3.21 yeas, the invested amount is recovered.
