distort annual results from normal operations.
True or False?

Margaret [11]2 years ago

Answer:

The statement is: True.

Explanation:

Ratio Analysis is the quantitative analysis of financial information from a company's financial statements or shares price. Ratios are keys to financial analysis as they provide input for evaluating a company to its competitors or an industry benchmark. Ratios provide the vital signs used to measure corporate health, allowing investors to drill down to specific aspects of the company's operational status.

As <em>gains and losses</em> are not derived directly from the primary operations of a firm, analysts tend to consider them counterproductive in obtaining the ratio analysis of a company.

You have two choices for how you are going to spend Saturday evening. You can go to the pub with your friends, which will cost y
icang [17]

Answer:

b. The economic cost of going to the pub is £40.

Explanation:

The correct option is - b. The economic cost of going to the pub is £40.

Reason -

Economic cost = Cost actually incurred to choose an option + opportunity cost

Now,

We know that

Opportunity cost is the value of next best alternative forgone.

Now,

Net benefits while the person going to Pub = 50 - 30 = £20

Net benefits while the person going to Theatre = 60 - 50 = £10

So,

The opportunity cost = £20 - £10 = £10

∴ we get

Economic cost of going to the Pub= £30 + £10 = £40

kow [346]

Answer:

1. Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act - <em>Consumer has less paperwork to go through to buy a new house</em>

The Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (EGRPRA) is a law that requires that the regulatory bodies of Federal Deposit Insured Corporation insured institutions such as banks and savings organisations review the documents they require from said banks to see if there are any unnecessary requirements needed. This will translate to fewer  paperwork for the customers of such banks who for instance seek a mortgage to buy a house.

2.  Fair Credit Reporting Act - <em>Consumer disputes financial information reported to a credit scoring company</em>

The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) gives consumers the right to dispute the information reported to a credit scoring company. It also regulates how these companies are allowed to collect and share the acquired data.

3. Federal Deposit Insurance Act - <em>The FDIC has the right to review companies for consumers</em>

4. Children's Online Privacy Act - <em>Consumer refuses to provide their five-year-old child's financial data to a company.</em>

The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act was passed in 1998 as a means to allow parents to determine what information about their children that websites can collect. Children in this case refers to people under the age of 13.
