Organizations are integrated systems that use resources to achieve certain objectives and goals and become profitable and competitive.

Globalization was a phenomenon that contributed to an increase in the flow of information and changes in technologies and paradigms that contributed to a greater speed in consumer trends, and in the number of companies competing in the market.

Therefore, to achieve competitive advantage, it is not enough for the organization to use its resources in a conventional way, it is necessary to use strategies to add value to its processes. Considering the current business scenario, it can be said that the human resource in companies is the one that will give it a sustainable competitive advantage, since the knowledge acquired is one of the main resources used for the company to position itself in relation to competitors, each time more companies are promoters of social responsibility, so prioritizing knowledge and its stakeholders will always be the most advantageous option for creating value and competitive advantages.

Given:

Area of a rectangle is [tex]600 \text{cm}^2[/tex].

Breadth is two-third of its length.

To find:

The length and breadth of the rectangle​ .

Solution:

Let x cm be the length of the rectangle.

Then, Breadth or width of the rectangle = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}x[/tex] cm

Area of a rectangle is

[tex]Area=Length \times Breadth[/tex]

[tex]600=x \times \dfrac{2}{3}x[/tex]

[tex]600=\dfrac{2}{3}x^2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3.

[tex]1800=2x^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]900=x^2[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides.

[tex]\pm \sqrt{900}=x[/tex]

[tex]\pm 30=x[/tex]

Length cannot be negative. So, x=30.

Now,

Length = [tex]30\text{ cm}[/tex]

Breadth = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}\times 30\text{ cm}[/tex]

             = [tex]2\times 10\text{ cm}[/tex]

             = [tex]20\text{ cm}[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 30 cm and the breadth is 20 cm.

Answer:

a. 13.3%; 0.2.

Explanation:

Profit margin can be expressed as a ratio or a percentage. It is also called the gross profit ratio

The formula for gross margin

= net income/ net sales x 100

= $40,000/ $300,000 x 100

=13.33%

The formula for calculating asset turnover ratio is net sales divide by

average total assets.

=Net sales/ average total sales

=$40,000/$200,000

=0.2

Answer:

A. 2017 $61,400

2018 $49,400

B. $1,650,800

Explanation:

A. Calculation to Determine the equity income to be recognized by Killearn during each of these years.

2017 EQUITY INCOME

Equity Income =(25%*$634,400)-($ 1 per share April 1 Cash dividend+$ 1 per share October 1 Cash dividend*$110,000)

Equity Income =$158,600-($2per share*110,000)

Equity Income =$158,600-$220,000

Equity Income =$61,400

2018 EQUITY INCOME

Equity Income =(25%*$682,400)-($ 1 per share April 1 cash dividend+$ 1 per share October 1 cash dividend*$110,000)

Equity Income =$170,600-($2per share*110,000)

Equity Income =$170,600-$220,000

Equity Income =$49,400

Therefore the equity income to be recognized by Killearn during 2017 is $61,400 and 2018 is $49,400 .

b. Computation for Killearn's investment in Shaun Company's balance as of December 31, 2018

Original Investment at Cost $1,540,000

( 110,000*14per share)

Add 2017 Profit shared (Net of Dividend) $61,400

Add 2018 Profit shares (Net of Dividend) $ 49,400

2018 Investment Value $1,650,800

($1,540,000+$61,400+$ 49,400)

Therefore Killearn's investment in Shaun Company's balance as of December 31, 2018 will be $1,650,800

Answer:

1. $15,406

2. $6,461

3. $2,118

4. $15,262

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the present value

1. Calculation for the Present Value of $31,000, n= 12, i =6%

First step is to find the Present value of $1:

n= 12, i =6% (from PV of $1)

Where,

n represent the period for investment

i represent the interest rate

The Present value of $1:n= 12, i =6% (from PV of $1) is 0.49697

Now let Calculate the Present Value of $31,000,n= 12, i =6%

Present value=$31,000 *0.49697

Present value= $15,406

2. Calculation for the Present Value of $25,000, n= 20, i =7%

First step is to find the Present value of $1:

n= 20, i =7% (from PV of $1)

Where,

n represent the period for investment

i represent the interest rate

The Present value of $1:n= 20, i =7% (from PV of $1) is 0.25842

Now let Calculate the Present Value of $25,000, n= 20, i =7%

Present value=$25,000 *0.25842

Present value= $6,461

3. Calculation for the Present Value of $36,000, n= 25, i =12%

First step is to find the Present value of $1:

n= 25, i =12% (from PV of $1)

Where,

n represent the period for investment

i represent the interest rate

The Present value of $1:n= 25, i =12% (from PV of $1) is 0.05882

Now let Calculate the Present Value of $36,000, n= 25, i =12%

Present value=$36,000 *0.05882

Present value= $2,118

4.Calculation for the Present Value of $51,000, n= 14, i =9%

First step is to find the Present value of $1:

n= 14, i =9% (from PV of $1)

Where,

n represent the period for investment

i represent the interest rate

The Present value of $1:n= 14, i =9% (from PV of $1) is 0.29925

Now let Calculate the Present Value of $51,000, n= 14, i =9%

Present value=$51,000 *0.29925

Present value= $15,262

Therefore the PRESENT VALUE will be:

Future Amount i = n = Present Value

1 $31,000 6% 12 =$15,406

2 $25,000 7% 20 =$6,461

3 $36,000 12% 25 =$2,118

4 $51,000 9% 14 =$15,262
