Answer:

The correct option : D)

<u> $ 44.35 </u>

Explanation:

Price Earning ( P/E) Ratio is computed as : Market Price of the Stock / Earnings per Share (EPS) or

Market price of the stock = P/E Ratio x EPS

Market price of Novartis share = 13.24 x $ 3.35 = $ 44.35

Price to Book ( P / B) :

Go to the balance sheet of the company. Find out the book value of stockholders' equity. Divide the value by the number of common shares outstanding. That would give you the book value of each common share. Divide the market price of the stock by its book value. This is the P/B ratio.

koban [17]

Answer:

$325,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Total variable costs = $219,600

Total fixed costs = $126,750

Total revenues = $360,000

Required sales in dollars to break even:

= [Total fixed cost ÷ (Total revenues - Total variable costs)] × Total revenues

= [$126,750 ÷ ($360,000 - $219,600)] × $360,000

= ($126,750 ÷ $140,400) × $360,000

= 0.9028 × $360,000

= $325,000

Suppose a firm is producing in the long run. When it produces 4,000 units of output, its total cost is $8,000. When it produces
Scilla [17]

Answer:

increasing then decreasing

Explanation:

production level            total cost             average total cost

4,000                               $8,000                    $2.00

4,200                               $8,200                     $1.95

4,400                               $8,800                    $2.00

Returns to scale measure the change in productivity, or how much input is needed to produce a unit of output.

  • increasing returns to scale: output increases in a greater proportion than inputs
  • constant returns to scale: output increases in the same proportion as inputs
  • decreasing returns to scale: output increases in a lower proportion than inputs

Since first the average total cost decreased, total output increased in a greater proportion than inputs ⇒ increasing returns of scale. But then the situation reversed and total output increased in a lower proportion than inputs ⇒ decreasing returns of scale.

dsp73

Answer:

$59,045.80

Explanation:

The following information was missing:

Accounts Receivable total $1,565,170

Assuming the company uses the percent of accounts receivable method, what is the amount that Chiller will enter as the Bad Debt Expense in the December 31 adjusting journal entry?  

total uncollectible debt = $1,565,170 x 4% = $62,606.80

since the account balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts is $3,561 (credit), the adjusting entry should be:

December 31, 2013, bad debt expense

Dr Bad debt expense (= $62,606.80 - $3,561) 59,045.80

    Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 59,045.80

If inventory increases under the retail method, which of the following is true: a. Under the Average Cost retail method, a new l
NeTakaya

Answer:

d. Under the LIFO retail method, a new layer would be added.

Explanation:

The retail method is used to estimate ending inventory/cost of goods sold and is  widely used for financial reporting purposes, especially for quarterly financial statements. Retail methods are usually used with the weighted average cost flow assumption, FIFO or LIFO.

Now when the inventory increases under the retail method, LIFO retail method is the best to use because it gives you the highest cost of goods sold and the lowest taxable income. LIFO layer refers to a tranche of cost in an inventory costing system that follows the last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost flow assumption. Therefore when inventory increases under the LIFO retail method, a new layer would be added.
