Answer:

<u>BANK A</u>

ROA  1.50%

ROE 18.00%

LEVERAGE: 8.33%

<u>BANK B</u>

ROA 2.22%

ROE 8.00%

LEVERAGE: 27.78%

Explanation:

<u>BANK A</u>

ROA: profit / assets

assets: reserves, loans, securities:  5 + 70 + 45 = 120

1.8 millions / 120 assets = 0.015 = 1.5%

ROE: profit / equity

equity = bank capital = 10

1.8 / 10 = 0.18 = 18%

LEVEGARE: 10/120 = 0.083333 = 8.33%

<u>BANK A</u>

ROA: profit / assets

assets: reserves, loans, securities:  10 + 45 + 35 = 90

2 millions / 90 assets = 0.02222 = 2.22%

ROE: profit / equity

equity = bank capital = 25

2 / 25  = 0.08 = 8%

LEVEGARE: 25/90 = 0.277777 = 27.78%

A significant flaw in the payback method of capital budgeting is that____________ Group of answer choices it ignores cash flows
saul85 [17]

Answer:it ignores cash flows following the payback period

Explanation:

The payback method of budgeting does not  consider inflows of cash that occur beyond or following the payback period, thus ignoring the profitability of one project as compared to another in the sense that one project may be more valuable than another based on future cash flows.

Also, Many capital investments provide complexity of cash flows as a result of   investment returns over a period of many years, which also does not align with Payback method , because of this limitation, many businesses have adjusted by using their discretion to override this rule.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

4: not enforce it.​

Explanation:

It may be stated that the court does not exercise this additional agreement in this particular case based on the information provided in the question. This is due to the fact that it is not directly clear for payment. Because they make extra payments for the Genovey contract, they try to overcome the odds, and if these limitations are beyond their control they cannot do so.

Answer:

The contribution margin per unit for the 18-inch blade.

Break even in units = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit

                                = 85,000/11 (15-4)

                                = 7,728 unit (round off)

The contribution margin ratio of the 18-inch blade.

Total contribution margin (CM) is calculated by subtracting total variable costs TVC from total sales TSP. Contribution margin per unit equals sales price per unit SP minus variable costs per unit VC . It is used in calculating a break even point of a business. Contribution margin ratio tells us how much contribution towards fixed cost is generate by selling a unit.

CM ratio = $ 11/ $ 15 *100= 73.33%

(Variable cost = 15 -4 = 11 )

Contribution margin income statement for the month of January.

Sales                              $ 180,000

Variable cost                 ($ 48,000)

Gross profit                    $ 132,000

Fixed Cost                      ($ 85,000)

Net Profit                         $ 47,000

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The company's cost of preferred stock for use in calculating the WACC is 9.65%

Explanation:

For computing the cost of preferred stock, the following formula should be used which is shown below

= Annual dividend based on preferred stock ÷ (Price per share × Flotation cost)

where,

Flotation cost = 1- rate

                      = 1- 4% = 0.96

= $9.50 ÷ ($102.50 × 0.96)

= $9.50 ÷ $98.4

= 9.65%

The flotation cost should be deducted because it is a one time expense. Thus, it would be minus from price per share.

Hence, the company's cost of preferred stock for use in calculating the WACC is 9.65%

Ne4ueva [31]

Increasing total sales by targeting more customers

Explanation:

When a company has a product that can satisfy various segments of customers, they will target as many customers as possible.

Targeting a wider customer base is the strategy being used by In-N-Out Burger. They decided to target both the college student community and the artisan build-your-own burger segment.

This startegy can however be more expensive if different advertisements are required to target different segments. Promotion expense will increase.
