Answer:
Option (b) Decline 20%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Firm X has declared a stock dividend that pays one share of stock for every five shares owned
Therefore,
The increase in number of shares
= [ 1 ÷ 5 ] × 100%
= 20%
Thus,
The earnings per share will decrease by the amount of increase in number of shares i.e decrease by 20%
Hence,
Option (b) Decline 20%
<span>I would assume that customers arrive at the queue according to the poisson process, and then decide whether to enter the queue or leave as per the rules in the question.
for (a)
I interpret "enter the system" as "join the queue".
The expected time for this will be
E(time until there is a free slot) + E(time for someone to arrive once a slot is free).
Noting that the additional time taken for someone to arrive once a spot is free is independant of the time that the slot became free (memorylessness property of poisson process)
The waiting time of a Poisson(\lambda) is exp(\lambda) with mean \frac{1}{\lambda}
E(\text{Time someone enters the system})=\frac{1}{2\mu} + \frac{1}{\lambda}
Your post suggests you already understand where \frac{1}{2\mu} comes from.</span>
Answer:
Product A, then Product C and finally Product B
Explanation:
The unit profit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit - Fixed cost per unit
Unit Profit of product A = $21 - $11 - $5 = $5
Unit Profit of product B = $12 - $7 - $3 = $2
Unit Profit of product C = $32 - $18 - $9 = $5
The profit of each product in 1 machine hour = 1 hour/ Machine hours per unit * Unit Profit
Profit of Product A in 1 hour using machine = 1/0.2 * $5 = $25
Profit of Product B in 1 hour using machine = 1/0.5*$2 = $4
Profit of Product C in 1 hour using machine = 1/0.2* $5 = $25
Product A & Product C have same profit in 1 hour machine, then we have to consider Direct labor hours per unit which product A is 0.4 while product C is 0.7. It means Product C is more costly in direct labour than Product A.
In short, then the ranking of the products from the most profitable to the least profitable use of the constrained resource is Product A, then Product C and finally Product B
Answer:
b. A decrease in the YTM.
Explanation:
Price of the bond is calculated using present value of future cash flows. while calculating present values of the cash flows or price of the bond, we use YTM for discount purpose. As we that higher rate gives lower Present value and Lower rate gives higher present value. Interest rate behave inversely with present value. So the reduction in YTM will increase the price of the bond.
Answer:
Sales will be $353333.33
Explanation:
We have given fixed Cost = $ 38,600
Earning Required = $70,000
Contribution margin ratio = 30 %
Hence Contribution Required= Fixed Cost+Earning Required = $70000+$36000 = $106000
We know that contribution margin ratio is given by
Contribution margin ratio 
Sales = $353333.333
