quester [9]

Answer:

Warranty of fitness for particular purpose.

Explanation:

Under the principle of implied warranty, products must be fit for the particular use for which they are intended. What does one do with a drink other than drink it ? Therefore, there was no need for Wanda to inform Kelly about the purpose, as Kelly is aware of the purpose for which Wanda wants the product.

Hence, it is seller Kelly's duty to ensure that the goods are suitable for that purpose.In other words, there was an implied warranty that the drink was fit to be consumed.

Trueware Corporation is a start-up firm with a capital structure that includes 25 percent debt. Trueware has no preferred stock.

defon

Answer:

$1.53

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the difference in earnings per share (EPS) for the capital structure

Debt = 0.25 × Total assets = 0.25 × $500,000

Debt= $125,000

Equity = (1 − 0.25) × Total assets = 0.75 × $500,000

Equity = $375,000

Net income (NIRuby) = [EBIT - (Cost of debt × Total debt)] × (1 - Tax rate)

Net income (NIRuby) = [$80,000 - (0.10 × $125,000)] × (1 - 0.3)

Net income (NIRuby= $47,250

EPSRuby = Net income/Number of shares outstanding

EPSRuby = $47,250/22,000 shares

EPSRuby= $2.15 per share

Net income (NIEmerald) = [EBIT - (Cost of debt × Total debt)] × (1 - Tax rate)

Net income (NIEmerald) = [$32,000 - (0.10 × $125,000)] × (1 - 0.3)

Net income (NIEmerald) = $13,650

EPSEmerald = Net income/Number of shares outstanding

EPSEmerald = $13,650/22,000 shares

EPSEmerald= $0.62 per share

Difference between the earnings per share = $2.15 - $0.62

Difference between the earnings per share= $1.53

Therefore the difference in earnings per share (EPS) for the capital structure is $1.53

It costs a meat-processing company $50,000 to produce 5,000 pounds of steak. the company's cost will be $50,009 if it produces a

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Calculating average cost of steak initially when only 5000 pounds was produced
Average cost= 50000/5000
AC= 10$
Now when 1 pound is added only 9$ is added in total cost so marginal cost
MC= 9$
From above calculations we can see that AC>MC
so we can say that the average cost of production is greater than marginal cost so it will be beneficial to produce more

You have a portfolio that is invested 11 percent in Stock R, 56 percent in Stock S, and the remainder in Stock T. The beta of St

Kruka [31]

Answer:

The beta of stock T is 1.82

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is made up of the weighted average of the individual stock betas in the portfolio.

The formula for portfolio beta is,

Portfolio beta = wA * beta of A + wB * beta of B + ... + wX * beta of X

The weight of stock T in the portfolio is = 1 - (0.11 + 0.56) = 0.33 or 33%

Let beta of Stock T be x. The beta of Stock T is:

1.47 = 0.11 * 0.84 + 0.56 * 1.39 + 0.33 * x

1.47 = 0.0924 + 0.7784 + 0.33x

1.47 - 0.0924 - 0.7784 = 0.33x

0.5992 / 0.33 = x

x = 1.815 rounded off to 1.82
