Answer:

=Y= 98.56 / $1

Explanation:

A Japanese investor can earn a 1 percent annual interest rate in Japan or about 3.5 percent per year in the United States.

If the spot exchange rate is 101 yen to the dollar, at what one-year forward rate would an investor be indifferent between the U.S. and Japanese investment.

1 + interest rate in US  = Spot rate x (1 + interest rate in Japan)

Therefore (1 + 3.5%) = ($1 / 101 yen) x (1 + 1%) (x)

1.035 = 0.0099 x 1.01 (x)

Therefore x = 103.5

103.5 / 101 = 1.02475

1.02475 x spot rate = 98.56

Your restaurant has assets of $64,342 and liabilities of $47,266. What is the equity of your business?
Alborosie

Answer:

Equity of the business= $17,076.

Explanation:

Equity as used in business is used to refer to the difference between the worth of a business (its assets) and what the business owes (debts and liabilities).

In other words, total equity refers to the value which is left in the company after the total liabilities must have been subtracted from the total assets.

The formula to calculate total equity is given below:

Equity = Assets - Liabilities

Therefore to calculate the equity above, we have:

Equity = $64,342 - $47,266

Equity = $17,076.

svp [43]

To solve this problem, let us try to break down each scenario one by one. We must calculate the total earnings that the two companies receive for each scenario.

Scenario 1: Neither company advertise

Earning of PM Inc = $ 50 M

Earning of Brown Inc = $ 50 M

Total Earning = $ 100 M

 

Scenario 2: Both companies advertise

Earning of PM Inc = $ 40 M

Earning of Brown Inc = $ 40 M

Total Earning = $ 80 M

 

Scenario 3: One company advertise, let us say PM Inc is the company who advertise and Brown Inc does not

Earning of PM Inc = $ 60 M

Earning of Brown Inc = $ 30 M

Total Earning = $ 90 M

 

We can see that Scenario 1 has the largest total earnings of all scenarios. Therefore the best strategy is:

<span>A. neither company will advertise</span>

Use the information below to answer questions 4-7. Drake Company's income statement for the most recent year appears below:
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(A) $731,250

Explanation:

The formula to compute the break-even point in sales dollars is shown below:

= (Fixed expenses or Fixed cost) ÷ (Contribution ratio)

where,

Contribution ratio = Contribution margin ÷ sales

                             = $208,000 ÷ $650,000

                             = 0.32 or 32%

And, the fixed expense is $234,000

Now put the values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $234,000 ÷ 32%

= $731,250
