Answer:

carry trade

Explanation:

Carry trade can b defined as borrowing funds at a low interest rate and then investing those funds in assets that generate a higher return. This way, you profit will be the difference between the higher rate of return yielded by the asset minus the low interest rate paid for the loan.

Romano Corporation has three operating divisions and requires a 12% return on all investments. Selected information is presented

REY [17]

Answer:

DIVISION X

Revenues = $1006000

Operating income = $105600

Operating assets = $419800

Margin = (Income*100/Revenue) = $105600*100/$1006000 = 10.50%

Turnover = (Turnover/Assets) = $1006000/$419800 = 2.4 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = 105600*100/419800 = 25.15%

Residual Income = (105600-419800*12%) = $55224

DIVISION Y

Revenues = $298200*1 = $298200

Operating income = $298200*14% = $41748

Operating assets = $298200

Margin = 14%

Turnover = 1 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = $41748*100/$298200 = 14%

Residual Income = (41748-298200*12%) = $5964

DIVISION Z

Revenues = $635083.33 * 3 = $1905250

Operating income = $104900

Operating assets = (104900-28690)*100/12 = $635083.33

Margin = (Income*100/Revenue) = $104900*100/$1905250 = 5.51%

Turnover = 3 times

ROI = (income*100/assets = 5.51% * 3 = 16.53%

Residual Income = $28690

The Wyeth Corporation produces three products, A, B, and C, from a single raw material input. Product A can be sold at the split

Degger [83]

Answer:

It is preferable to further process Product A.

Explanation:

Product should be processed further before sale if the net incremental benefits from further processing is positive.

The net incremental benefits from further processing is increase in revenue when further processed less further costs of processing.

Increase in revenue=$58,000-$40,000

=$18,000

Further processing costs=$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$18,000-$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$3,000

Since processing further brings a net benefit of $3,000, Product A should be further processed before being sold.
