Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, formula and the computation of the given data are as follow:-

Current Ratio = Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities

where,

Currents assets for year   is

= Cash + Account Receivable(Net) + Inventory

= $4,500 + $20,800 + $10,100

= $35,400

And, the current liabilities is $ 12,700

So, the current ratio is

= $35,400 ÷ $12,700

= 2.79 times

Acid Test Ratio (2017) = (Accounts Receivable + Cash) ÷ (Current Liabilities)

= ($20,800+$4,500) ÷ ($12,700)

= $25,300 ÷ $12,700

= 1.99 times

Accounts Receivable Turnover is

= Sales ÷ (Opening Receivable + Closing Receivable ÷ 2)

= $110,000 ÷ ($23,300 + $20,800 ÷ 2)

= $110,000 ÷ $22,050

= 4.99 Times

Inventory Turnover Times is

= Cost of Goods Sold ÷ (Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory ÷ 2)

= $60,800 ÷ ($7,200 + $10,100 ÷ 2)

= $60,800 ÷ $8,650

= 7.03 Times

Profit Margin is

= Profit ÷ Sales × 100

= $15,000 ÷ $110,000 × 100

= 13.64%

Assets Turnover  is

= Sales ÷ (Opening Assets + Closing Assets ÷ 2)

= $110,000 ÷ ($119,500 + $110,300 ÷ 2)

= $110,000 ÷ $114,900

= 0.96 Times

Return on Assets is

= Profit ÷ (Opening Assets + Closing Assets ÷ 2)

= $15,000 ÷ ($119,500 + $110,300 ÷ 2)

= $15,000 ÷ $114,900

= 13.05%

As we know that

Equity = Common Stock + Retained Earnings

Opening Equity is

= $68,600 + $19,800

= $88,400

Closing Equity is

= $74,900 + $22,700

= $97,600

Return on Common Stock Holder’s Equity is

= Profit ÷ (Opening Equity + Closing Equity ÷ 2)

= $15,000 ÷ ($88,400 + $97,600 ÷ 2)

=$15,000 ÷ $93,000

= 16.13%

Debt to Asset Ratio is

= Borrowing ÷ Assets

= 0 ÷ $110,300

= 0

By calculating these ratios we can analysis the organization financial profitability, liquidity, financial performance, and financial position. These ratios gives the exact picture of the company.

Simon lost $4,300 gambling this year on a trip to Las Vegas. In addition, he paid $2,650 to his broker for managing his $265,000
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Assuming Simon’s AGI is $40,000.

Gambling losses are only deductible to the extent of gambling winnings. Thus,Simon cannot deduct any of the $4,300 gambling losses. The $3,160 transportation expenses are also nondeductible as they are deemed to be personal expenses. The $2,650 broker management fees are deductible as investment fees (miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to the 2% AGI floor), and the $1,030 tax return fees are also deductible as miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to the 2% AGI floor.

Thus, $2,650 + $1,030 – (2% x $40,000 AGI) = $2,880 deduction

The unemployment rate in an economy is 6 percent. The total population of the economy is 290 million, and the size of the civili
Tema [17]

Answer:

2. 9 million

Explanation:

We know that

Unemployment rate = Number of unemployed workers ÷ Civilian labor force

6% = Number of unemployed workers ÷ 150 million

So, the number of unemployed workers would be

= 150 million × 6%

= 9 million

We simply applied the unemployed rate so that the number of unemployed workers could come

An aircraft company has an order to refurbish the interiors of 18 jet aircraft. The work has a learning curve percentage of 80.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

a. 125.43 hours

b. 767.92 hours

c. 2,129.04 hours

Explanation:

Using the mathematical approach, we have :

y = ax ^b

Where ,

y is the average time to manufacture x units

a is the time its takes to manufacture first plane

b is the log of 80% divided by log 2

Then,

Average time for 5 planes = 300 (5)^-0.322

                                            = 178.67 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 178.67 hours × 5

                                      = 893.35

Average time for 4 planes = 300 (4)^-0.322

                                            = 191.98 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 191.98 hours × 4

                                      = 767.92 hours

The fifth plane would take =  893.35 - 767.92

                                            =  125.43 hours

Average time for the 18 planes = 300(18)^-0.322

                                                    = 118,28 hours

Total time for 18 planes = 118,28 hours × 18

                                       = 2,129.04 hours

Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500
Andru [333]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960

= $44,560

Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)

= 160 × $24

= $3,840

Under LIFO method

Cost of goods sold is

= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)

= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720

= $45,520

Ending Inventory Under LIFO is

= (200 - 40) × $18

= 160 × $18

= $2,880

Weighted Average cost flow Assumption

Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available

Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800

= $48,400

Total apples available is

= 200 + 800 + 1,200

= 2,200  

Weighted Average cost per apple is

= $48,400 ÷ 2,200

= $22

Cost of goods sold is  

= 2,040 × $22

= $44,880

Ending Inventory is

= 160 × $22

= $3,520

b. The Preparation of income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions is prepared below:-

Income Statement                       Amount

Sales (2,040 × $40)                     $81,600

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, The complete question with options should be;

When Sebastian wrote the contract with BP for over two billion dollars, he included targets for performance that had to be met before a payment would be released. Sebastian was trying to avoid ________bias.

A. overconfidence

B. escalation of commitment

C. sunk-cost

D. framing

E. hindsight

The answer is

B. Escalation of commitment

Explanation:

Escalation of commitment is a human behavior pattern in which an individual or group facing increasingly negative outcomes from a decision, action, or investment regardless continues the behavior instead of changing the course.

It simply means the irrational behaviour of investing additional resources to a project that is failing.

These resources could be time, energy and money that an individual continue to invest into a falling and sinking venture or business

So, in this situation, before releasing the payment, Sebastian ensures that the targets should be met for the performance. He is avoiding the situation of escalation of commitment bias of him continuing to release or invest money into an already failing contract.
