Based on what Fiona did in response to her situation, she can be said to have <u>a. an </u><u>external locus </u><u>of </u><u>control</u><u>.</u>

An external locus of control:

  • Means that the person blames other things for any success or failure they have
  • Means that a person takes action to correct their external environment instead of internal things

Fiona in this case blamed her inability to make enough on the external factor of not having enough customers. She then changed careers because of this.

We can therefore conclude that Fiona has an external locus of control.

The generalized self effacy scale is centered on the the general belief in oneself to handle or slove problems and reach goals. Fiona could be described as having Self-efficacy.

Self-efficacy is simply known as the belief that an individual can achieve their goals they have, whether that is solving a puzzle.

  • Bandura (1997) stated four sources of self-efficacy and they are mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, and physiological and affective states.

For example, an individual who has a high level of self-efficacy in Structured jobs will feel confident in their ability to make more money in that field.

Explanation:

While stockholders equity is the amount of assets available to shareholders after all liabilities have been settled , treasury stock is the stock that is bought back by the issuing organisation with the aim of reducing the number of outstanding stock in the open market.

Looking at the scenario given , it was an indirect way of raising fund and increasing the equity of the stockholders equity as the treasury stock was later resold at a higher price.

Therefore , the stockholder's equity increases by 3,000- 2500 = 500

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Apple Inc.

a. Calculate Apple Inc.'s working capital, current ratio, and acid-test ratio at September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your ratio answers to 1 decimal place. Enter "Working capital" in million of dollars.)

September 2014:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $45,660,000 - $34,978,000 = $10,682,000

b) Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio = Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 - 930 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

September 2013:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $41,940,000 - $21,160,000 = $20,780,000

b) Current Ratio  = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 / $21,160 = 2 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 -1,200 / $21,160 = 1.9 : 1

b. Calculate Apple's ROE for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $26,050/$77,290 x 100 = 33.7%

September 2013

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $14,160/$48,050 x 100 = 29.5%

c. Calculate Apple's ROI, showing margin and turnover, for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round "Turnover" answers to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROI = Margin x Turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($33,950/$108,400) x ($108,400/$120,880)

= 0.31 x 0.90

= 0.279 = 27.9%

Average Assets = $120,880 ($147,820 + 93,940) /2

September 2013

ROI = margin = turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($18,530/$65,370) x ($65,370/$70,880)

= 0.28 x 0.92

= 0.258 = 25.8%

Average Assets = $70,880 ($93,940 + 47,820) /2

b) Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities.  It shows the amount of finance needed for meeting day-to-day operations of an entity.  Working capital measures a company's liquidity, operational efficiency, and its short-term financial health.  A healthy entity has some excess of current assets over current liabilities in order to continue to run the business operations in the short-run.  Working capital can also be measured in relative terms with the use of ratios, especially the current ratio and the acid-test ratio.

c) ROE means Return on equity.  It is a financial performance measure calculated by dividing net income by shareholders' equity.   Since shareholders' equity is equal to a company's assets minus its debt, ROE is considered as the return on net assets.  As with return on capital, a ROE measures management's ability to generate income from the equity available to it.

d) Return on Investment (ROI) is a financial performance measure which evaluates the efficiency of an investment or compares the efficiency of a number of different investments.  ROI tries to directly measure the amount of return on a particular investment, relative to the investment's cost.  As a financial metric, it measures the probability of gaining a return from an investment.

Missionary selling:
Valentin [98]

Missionary selling is often an entry position for higher level sales and marketing jobs.

Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

An inventive missionary retailer can sell a business two or three times. Missionary sales jobs are often a road to orders.

Missionary selling is a type of sales by which a salesperson advises a person who affects the purchase decision. The purpose is not to end a sale but simply to obtain information from the main decision-maker. It is an indirect sale method.

Missionary employment in scientific, pharmacy and textbook sales is quite common.

Professional companies such as IBM and Xerox depend on missionary vendors for program specialists. Systems specialists collaborate with clients to overcome scientific or organizational challenges. Salespeople tell about innovative items that offer alternatives in the process of finding solutions. A technical expert who advises an organization to minimize its product shipping time may, for example, suggest a software program that simplifies the shipping process.
