Answer:
D) Growth in earnings per share averaging 15% or better annually for the next five years
Explanation:
First of all, objectives must be well defined and measurable. That is why increasing profitability is a good idea but not a very good strategic objective, since a 0.00001% growth in profits will still comply with it. The same applies with growing market share.
Improving product quality will help improve total sales but it is not a financial objective.
The only financial objective that is precise and measurable is option D, which sets the goal of increasing earnings per share at least 15% every year.

Answer:
$0.013
0.010724
Explanation:
Given that :
Mean, m = 36500
Standard deviation, s = 5000
Refund of $1 per 100 mile short of 30,000 miles
A.) Expected cost of the promotion :
P(X < 30,000)
Using the Zscore relation :
Zscore = (x - m) / s
Zscore = (30000 - 36500) / 5000
= - 6500 / 5000
= - 1.3
100 miles = $1
1.3 / 100 = $0.013
b. What is the probability that Grear will refund more than $50 for a tire?
100 miles = $1
$50 = (100 * 50) = 5000 miles
Hence, more than $50 means x < (30000 - 5000) = x < 25000 miles
P(x < 25000) :
(25000 - 36500) / 5000
-11500 / 5000
= - 2.3
P(z < - 2.3) = 0.010724 (Z probability calculator)
Answer:
B) $23,000.
Explanation:
ABC's accumulated net income (or retained earnings) over the past four years = $8,000 + $5,000 + $12,000 + $10,000 = $35,000
ABC's accumulated dividends paid over the past four years = $3,000 x 4 = $12,000
Since dividends are paid using money that proceeds from retained earnings, the balance of the retained earnings account = accumulated retained earnings - accumulated dividends = $35,000 - $12,000 = $23,000
Numerous things are excluded. For example, free of charge services are not counted such as those when family members help each other. In addition, producing things for yourself or others free of charge is also excluded. These are called non-market transactions.
