Return on Equity: In the latest year, Photon, Inc. reported $276,000 in net income. The firm maintains a debt ratio of 30% and has total assets of $3,000,000. What is Photon's return on equity?
Answer:
13.14%
Explanation:
Debt / Total assets = 0.30
=>Debt = 0.30 * $3,000,000
Debt = $900,000
=> Equity = Total assets - Debt
Equity = $3,000,000 - $900,000
Equity = $2,100,000
Return on equity = Net income / Equity * 100
Return on equity = $276,000 / $2,100,000 * 100
Return on equity = 0.13142857 * 100
Return on equity = 13.142857%
Return on equity = 13.14%
A truck acquired at a cost of $195,000 has an estimated residual value of $10,200, has an estimated useful life of 56,000 miles, and was driven 5,000 miles during the year. Determine the following:
a. The depreciable cost $___________
b. The depreciation rate $__________ per mile
c. The units-of-activity depreciation for the year $__________
Answer:
a. $184,800
b. 3.3 per miles
c. 16,500
Explanation:
(a) Calculation to determine The depreciable cost
Depreciable cost =Cost - estimated residual value
Depreciable cost=$195,000- $10,200
Depreciable cost=$184,800
(b) Calculation to determine The depreciation rate
Depreciation rate = $184,800/useful life 56,000 miles
Depreciation rate =3.3per mile
(c) Calculation to determine The units-of-activity depreciation for the year
Units-of-activity depreciation =3.3per mile*5,000 miles
Units-of-activity depreciation=16,500
Therefore The units-of-activity depreciation for the year is 16,500

2. The B she received on the exam.
3. the slope of the graph is negative.
4. the slope of the graph is positive.
5. graphically illustrates the concept of scarcity.
6. increasing opportunity cost.
Explanation:
1. Macroeconomics is best defined as the study of the overall operation of the national and global economy.
Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
2. The opportunity cost of going to the beach is the "B" grade she received on the exam.
In Economics, opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
Thus, the value of the opportunities lost (scoring an "A" grade) by going to the beach is the opportunity cost of her choice.
3. When two variables have an inverse relationship, then the slope of the graph is negative.
An inverse relationship can be defined as a relationship between two variables, in which an increase in the value of one variable leads to a decrease in the value of the other variable i.e as the value of one variable becomes large, the value of the other variable becomes small.
4. When two variables have a direct relationship, then the slope of the graph is positive.
A positive relationship or correlation can be defined as the relationship between two variables in which there exist a direct relationship between them i.e as one variable increases, the other increases and vice-versa.
5. The production possibilities curve graphically illustrates the concept of scarcity.
The production possibilities curve (PPC) is also known as the production possibilities frontier (PPF) and its a curve which illustrates the maximum (best) combinations of two products that can be produce in an economy if they both depend on these factors;
1. Technology is fixed.
2. Resources are fixed.
6. A production possibilities curve that is concave or bowed out from the origin represents increasing opportunity cost.
The production possibilities curve (PPC) is depicted graphically as an arc, by representing one good on the y-axis and the other on the x-axis.

Mrs. Dill is planning on baking cakes for a summer festival. In order to do this, she needs to spend $15 on new equipment to bake the cakes, plus she estimates that it will cost her 5 cents for every cake that she bakes. If x is the number of cakes that she makes, what is the cost function C(x)?a. C(x) = 15 + 0.5x.b. C(x) =15 + 5x.c. C(x) = 5 + 15x.d. C(x) = 15 +0.05x.
Answer: d. C(x) = 15 +0.05x.
Explanation:
The Cost function for the cake will be the sum of the fixed and variable costs that Mrs. Dill will incur per cake baked.
Fixed cost = $15
Total Variable cost = Number of cakes baked * variable cost per cake
= x * 5 cents
= x * 5 cents / 100 cents in a dollar
= 0.05x
Cost function is therefore:
= 15 + 0.05x

This requires $2.5M to construct the lab, $1.2M to equip it, and $600,000 every 5 years for new equipment. What is the required endowment if the university will earn 6% interest on funds
Answer:
$5.47M
Explanation:
The required endowment from the sponsor is the total costs required immediately plus the present value of the new equipment that needs to be purchased every five years as shown thus:
Immediate costs=cost of lab construction+cost of equipping the lab
Immediate costs=$2.5M+$1.2M
Immediate costs=$3.7M
Present value of every 5 years equipment cost=cost/(1+interest)^n-1
interest rate=6%
n=5 years(the frequency of incurring the cost)
PV=$0.60M/(1+6%)^5-1
PV=$0.60M/0.33822558
PV=$1.77M
required endowment =$3.70M+$1.77M
required endowment =$5.47M
