The most competitively effective and very likely most profitable long-term approach to reduce or eliminate the impact of paying

tariffs on pairs imported to a company's distribution warehouse in Europe-Africa is to:___________.
A) raise the selling prices of all footwear being marketed in Europe-Africa by enough to cover somelall of the tariff costs. build and equip a production facility in Europe-Africa and then expand it as may be needed to supply all (or at least most) of the pairs the company intends to try to sell in Europe- Africa.
B) cut distribution and warehouse expenses and marketing expenses per pair sold in Europe Africa by enough to cover some/all of the tariff costs.
C) pursue a strategy of selling fewer pairs in Europe-Africa than rival companies, which will then keep the company's costs for import tariffs in Europe-Africa lower than those of rivals and give the company a competitive advantage based on low tariff costs on its sales in Europe-Africa.
D) pursue a strategy of selling footwear to retailers in Europe-Africa at a wholesale price of $39 per pair or less--no import tariffs have to be paid on branded pairs shipped to footwear retailers in Europe-Africa when the wholesale price is below $40 per pair.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

B. The economy would have enjoyed a much higher level of output in the mid-2000s.

Explanation:

This choice is based on the theory of production capacity, which tries to explain that industrial capacity of companies increases with increased supply of production resources.  Capital is one of the production resources which is increased with increased supply of US dollars.  Increased money supply increases the capital which banks can lend out to companies to increase their production capacity.

On the other hand, where this to be based on the theory of inflation, a different answer would have been produced.  The theory of inflation recognizes that the average inflation rate increases proportionately to a percentage increase in money supply, among other factors that influence inflation rates.

That the price level in 2005 would have been about 28 percent higher than what it actually reached in that year is highly speculative.  And D is certainly not the correct option, because the economy's output is increased with increased production capacity caused by increased money supply.

Excerpts from hulkster company's december 31, 2018 and 2017, financial statements are presented below: 2018 2017 accounts receiv
Rudik [331]

<u>Calculation of Hulkster's 2018 return on shareholders' equity:</u>


Return on shareholders' equity can be calculated with the help of following formula:

Return on shareholders' equity=  Net Income / Average shareholders' equity


Following information is available:

Net Income for the year 2018 =$41,500

Shareholders' equity 2018 = $252,000

Shareholders' equity 2017 = $231,000

Average shareholders' equity = (252000+231000) /2 = $241,500


Return on shareholders' equity for 2018 =  41500/241500 = 0.1718 =17.18%


Hence, Hulkster's 2018 return on shareholders' equity is <u>17.18%</u>

Devlin Company has two divisions, C and D. The overall company contribution margin ratio is 30%, with sales in the two divisions
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

b. $100,000

Explanation:

Devlin Company

Calculation for Total company contribution margin

= $500,000 × 30% = $150,000

Calculation for Total company variable expenses

= $500,000 − $150,000 = $350,000

Division C contribution margin ratio

= (Sales − $300,000) ÷ Sales = 0.25

Sales − $300,000 = 0.25 × Sales

(0.75 × Sales) ÷ 0.75 = $300,000÷ 0.75

Sales = $400,000

Therefore Division D sales = Total company sales − Division C sales

= $500,000 − $400,000 = $100,000

Calculation for each Divisions

Total Company Division C Division D

Sales$500,000$400,000$100,000

Less variable expenses$350,000 $300,000 $50,000

Contribution margin $150,000 $100,000$ 50,000

Contribution margin ratio 0.30 0.25 0.50

5. Which of the following is true for the party paying fixed in an interest rate swap? Assume no other transactions with the cou
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The answer is option A, There is more credit risk when the yield curve is upward sloping than when it is downward sloping

Explanation:

Solution

In an interest swap rate, when we receive floating, and pay fixed, in upward sloping yield curve, we are going to receive increase of  cash flows and therefore going to pay fixed and so, the counterpart will be at  a loss in slopping upward yield curve, and hence, we will have a credit risk that will be greater.

Akers Company sold bonds on July 1, 20X1, with a face value of $100,000. These bonds are due in 10 years. The stated annual inte
taurus [48]

Answer:

Bond Price = $86409.67366 rounded off to $86409.67

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 100000 * 0.06 * 6/12  = $3000

Total periods (n) = 10 * 2 = 20  

r or YTM = 0.08 * 6/12 = 0.04 or 4%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 3000 * [( 1 - (1+0.04)^-20) / 0.04]  + 100000 / (1+0.04)^20

Bond Price = $86409.67366 rounded off to $86409.67
