Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The price-earnings ratio is

First step is to calculate the Earnings per share using this formula

Earnings per share = Net income/No of ordinary shares outstanding

Let plug in the formula

Earnings per share = $205,359/53,900 share

Earnings per share = 3.81

Answers

Answer: b. (200 airplanes, 12,500 cars) and (150 airplanes, 15,000 cars)

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of an airplane is 50 cars. This means that if the number of planes produced were reduced by 50, the number of cars should increase by:

= 50 * 50

= 2,500 cars.

In option B, the airplanes were 200 and then reduced by 50 to 150. This led to an increase in cars of:

= 15,000 - 12,500

= 2,500 cars

Option B therefore satisfies the constraints and is correct.

Answers

Answer: d. positive square root of the variance.

Explanation:

Standard deviation is used to show the risk on a set of stocks and it is calculated by taking the square root of the variance of those same returns.

The process of finding the standard deviation is to therefore find the average return first and then find the variance of these returns. At this point, the variance will be positive as it is a squared value. Once this value is then taken to its square root, you will have your standard deviation.

Answers

Answer:

The item that would cause the trial balance to not balance is:

v. The cash payment of a $750 account payable was posted as a debit to Accounts Payable and a debit to Cash for $750.

Explanation:

The correct record should have been to credit the $750 in the Cash account.  By this double debit entries for a transaction without a corresponding credit entry, the trial balance cannot balance as the debit side will be greater by $1,500 ($750 * 2) than the credit side.  To correct the error, the Cash account will be credited with $1,500.  One of the $750 cancels the earlier error while the second $750 puts the records straight.

Jolene invests her savings in two bank accounts, one paying 3 percent and the other paying 9 percent simple interest per year. She puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. Her annual interest is 6015 dollars. How much did she invest at each rate?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Let us assume X be the amount invested at 3%

And, Y be the amount invested at 9%

So,  

0.03X + 0.09Y = $6,015 ........(1)

 X = 2Y ...........(2)

Now put the value of X in equation 1  

 0.03(2Y) + 0.09Y  = $6,015

 0.06Y + 0.09Y = $6,015

 0.15Y = $6,015

Y = $40,100

 X = 2 × $40,100 = $80,200

You are attempting to value a call option with an exercise price of $109 and one year to expiration. The underlying stock pays no dividends, its current price is $109, and you believe it has a 50% chance of increasing to $142 and a 50% chance of decreasing to $76. The risk-free rate of interest is 12%. Calculate the call option's value using the two-state stock price model.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the call option today is $14.29

Explanation:

The two-state stock pricing model is one that prices are based on the assumption that there is no arbitrage profit opportunity as well as the fact that the call option's value will be the present value(PV) of the expected future winnings for long call.

Now, value of the call option if the prices go up will be;

142 - 109 = $32

While if the prices go down, it will be;

76 - 109 = -$33

The call option in this case can only be utilized when the market value exceeds the exercise price.

Therefore, the expected winnings value after one year will be;

Value after one year = (32 × 0.5) + (0 × 0.5)

Value after one year = $16

We used 0 in the multiplication because the call wouldn't be utilized for when the prices go down.

one year from now the long call can be expected to earn $16 .

Thus, today the present value of this amount will be the price of the call option if we take into cognizance that here will be no arbitrage profit opportunity.

With risk-free rate of interest is 12%, we have;

PV = 16/1.12 = $14.29

Younes Inc. manufactures industrial components. One of its products, which is used in the construction of industrial air conditioners, is known as P06.

Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. What is the current contribution margin per unit for component P06 based on its selling price of $220 and its annual production of 4,000 units

Answers

Answer:

Contribution margin= $169

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total unitary variable cost:

total unitary variable cost= direct material + direct labor + variable overhead + variable selling expense

total unitary variable cost= 38 + 1 + 8 + 4

total unitary variable cost= $51

Now, the contribution margin:

Contribution margin= 220 - 51

Contribution margin= $169

Case Study
Imagine working in an organization where employee morale is low, turnover is high, and the costs of hiring are astronomical. If that were the case, you'd imagine the employer would go to great lengths to find, attract, and retain quality employees. Couple this goal with the reality of the economic picture -you simply cannot afford to provide expensive benefits for employees who may leave you for a different employer offering an extra $1,000 in salary or benefits. Knowing that 41 percent of all employees have no loyalty to their employers and will move on if a better offer comes adds to the dilemma. These issues clearly are a concern for organizations like Genentech or Zappos. But they don't fret over them. That's because they have found that treating employees with respect, and giving them such things as bonuses, rewards for longevity, onsite child care, lunches, and sending employees home with prepared dinners really works. Genentech is a California company that "develops and produces drugs that cure diseases," according to the company website. The company celebrated its thirteenth year on Fortune's "Best Places to work" list in 2011, also receiving "Best Places to Work" honors from Working Mother, LGBT Equality, and Computerworld. The reasons for this recognition are the important work that they do and the strong company culture that values equality and communication. Any discussion of how great it is to work at Genentech always circles back to the benefits that show a real respect for employees. In addition to traditional benefits like retirement and healthcare, they provide family friendly perks such as unlimited sick leave, personal concierge service, flexible work scheduling, childcare, nursing mother's rooms, onsite nurses, adoption assistance, and company sponsored family events. The list of innovative benefits goes on to include unusual benefits like pet insurance, free snacks, and paid six-week sabbaticals every six years! Zappos, the online shoe retailer, offers perks that match their fun-loving culture like pajama parties, nap rooms, regular happy hours, and a full-time life coach. Have these benefits worked for Genentech and Zappos? Ifyou translate longevity to morale and loyalty, you'd say they have. Both boast low turnover rates and high employee ratings for workplace satisfaction.
Q1) Describe the importance of employee benefits as a strategic component of fulfilling the goals of HRM at Genentech and Zappos?
Q2) Explain how Genentech and Zappos use employee benefits as a motivating tool?
Q3) Do you believe the incentive benefits such as those offered at Genentech and Zappos can be used in other organizations? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

1) Through employee benefits, the goals of HRM are achieved in effective ways.

2) Genentech also Zappos, try to make it a fun place to go to work at. Genentech and Zappos offer many benefits to employees that would attract and keep employees within the organization.

3) From a knowledgeable view, I actually believe that the motivation benefits as presented by the Genentech and Zappos Corporations can't be employed by other major or maybe small corporations.

Explanation:

1) The importance of employee benefits as a strategic component fulfilling the goals of HRM at Zippos and Genentech is that it can boost low turnover rates and high employee ratings for fulfillment. With placing benefits, employees will have the sensation of being more of an asset to the corporate instead of just being a worker. Thereupon employees would dedicate and put far more effort and time for better for the corporate which might then increase and generate more productivity and profit. When employees desire they need to be benefited from the organization successively they might become loyal to the organization and can stay rather than likely move to a different organization. Employees will tend to be more motivated to figure. Through employee benefits, the goals of HRM are achieved in effective ways.

2) Genentech also Zappos, struggle to form a fun place to travel to figure at. Genentech and Zappos offer many benefits to employees that might attract and keep employees within the organization. The good thing about benefits it can provide meaning and value to employees which will increase the worker's enthusiasm and morale within the work environment. With this, employees will then become more motivated to extend performance and feel secure within the organization which may cause low turnover rates and highly satisfied employees.

3) From a knowledgeable view, I actually believe that the motivation benefits as presented by the Genentech and Zappos Corporations can't be employed by other major or maybe small corporations. The motivation benefits offered at Genentech and Zappos Corporations are unique to their companies. I think that if other Corporations attempt to mirror the efforts of both Genentech and Zappos that their businesses would simply cease to exist. Companies today just don’t have the sustainability to take care of these lofty incentive packages for a three-year, five years, or even ten-year plan. Most companies simply don’t have the financial capital that the efforts of the Genentech and Zappos Corporations.

b.)Security A earned a higher average annual rate of return.

c.both securities earned the same average annual rate of return.

d.)it is impossible to calculate the securities rates of return based on this information.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

Security A : 11 = 1( 1 + r)^15

11^(1/15) =  1( 1 + r)

1.173 = 1 + r

r = 1.173 - 1

r = 17.33%

Security A : 16 = 1( 1 + r)^15

16^(1/15) =  1( 1 + r)

1.20 = 1 + r

r = 1.2 - 1

r = 0.2

r = 20%

Security B earned a higher average annual rate of return as 20% is greater than 17.33%

The demand function for a certain commodity is given by , where p is the price per unit and q is the number of units. a. At what price per unit will the quantity b. If the price is $1.87 per unit, demanded equal 8 units

Answers

Answer:

(a) The price per unit is $1.83 when the quantity demanded is 8 units

(b) The quantity demanded is approximately 8 units when the price per unit is $1.87

Explanation:

Given

[tex]p = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

[tex]p \to[/tex] price per unit

[tex]q \to[/tex] quantity demanded

Solving (a): Price per unit when quantity is 8

This means that we calculate p(8)

We have:

[tex]p(q) = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

So:

[tex]p(8) = 100e^{-8/2}[/tex]

[tex]p(8) = 100e^{-4}[/tex]

[tex]p(8) = 1.83[/tex]

Solving (b): Quantity demanded when price per unit is $1.87

This means that:

[tex]p(q) = 1.87[/tex] ---- find q

We have:

[tex]p(q) = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

So:

[tex]1.87 = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 100

[tex]0.0187 = e^{-q/2}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]\ln(0.0187) = \ln(e^{-q/2})[/tex]

[tex]-3.980 = \ln(e^{-q/2})[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]-3.980 = -q/2}*\ln(e)[/tex]

[tex]-3.980 = -q/2[/tex]

Multiply by -2

[tex]7.96 = q[/tex]

[tex]q = 7.96[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]q = 8[/tex]

2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $2,500?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. Contribution margin ratio

= (Sales - Variable cost) / Sales

Sales = $300,000

Variable cost = $234,000

Contribution margin = ($300,000 - $234,000) / $300,000

= 0.22

= 22%

Hence, contribution margin ratio is 22%

2. Change in the net operating income if it can increase total sales by $2,500

Contribution margin of $2,300 = $2,300 × 22%

= $506

Operating income for $300,000 sales is

= Sales - total variable expenses - fixed expenses

= $300,000 - $234,000 - $38,700

= $27,300

If sales is $302,500 the net operating income would be

= $27,300 + $506

= $27,806

• It therefore means that the net operating income will increase by $506

A point outside (to the right of) the production possibilities curve of a nation implies that this nation is using its resources fully. implies that there are unemployed resources in this nation. is easily attainable for this nation. is not attainable for this nation. Submit

Answers

Answer:

is not attainable for this nation

Explanation:

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.

Point outside the curve or to the right of the curve means that the production level is not attainable given the level of resources

Points inside the production possibilities curve means that the nations resources are not being fully utilised

Factors that cause the PPF to shift  

1. changes in technology.  

2. changes in available resources.  

3. changes in the labour force.

CWN Company uses a job order costing system and last period incurred $70,000 of actual overhead and $100,000 of direct labor. CWN estimates that its overhead next period will be $85,000. It also expects to incur $100,000 of direct labor cost. If CWN bases applied overhead on direct labor cost, its predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be:

Answers

Answer:

85%

Explanation:

With regards to the above information, the predetermined over head is calculated as seen below.

Predetermined overhead = [(Estimated overhead / Expected labor cost) × 100]

Estimated overhead = $85,000

Expected labor cost = $100,000

Then,

Predetermined overhead = [($85,000 / $100,000) × 100]

Predetermined overhead = 0.85 × 100

Predetermined overhead = 85%

Therefore, the predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be 85%

Use the following scenario for the question below. A group of 100 people seeks out an insurance company to underwrite health insurance for its members. The expected medical spending for the group is $150,000. Assume a net loading cost of 15 percent. If an additional 10 people, who have expected medical spending of $5,000 per person on average, join the group, the new premium will be approximately: a. $2,100. b. $2,300. c. $1,818. d. $3,090. e. $5,822.

Answers

The new premium given the medical spending and the number of people will be approximately $2,100

How to find new premium

Given:

Number of people = 100Additional people = 10Total = 110Medical spending = $150,000

Medical spending per person (additional) = $5000

Medical spending for additional people = $5,000 × 10

= $50,000

Total medical spending = $150,000 + $5,000

= $200,000

Average per person = Total medical spending / number of persons

= $200, 000 / 110

= $1818.18181818181

Net loading cost = 15%

New premium = 1818.18181818181 + (15% of 1818.18181818181)

= 1818.18181818181 + 272.727272727272

= $2090.90909090909

Approximately,

$2,100
