Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The most frequently encountered profit objectives for a retailer are shown in the strategic profit model (SPM), a tool used to assess a firm's profitability. The five elements of the SPM elements include net profit margin, asset turnover, return on assets, financial leverage, and return on net worth.
 Net profit margin is the ratio of net profit (after taxes) to net sales. It shows how much profit a retailer makes on each dollar of sales after all expenses and taxes have been met.
 Asset turnover is computed by taking the retailer's annual net sales and dividing by total assets. This ratio shows how productively the firm's assets are being used.
 Return on assets (ROA), which is annual net profit divided by total assets, depicts the net profit return the retailer achieved on all assets invested regardless of whether the assets were financed by creditors or by the firm's owners. ROA is the result of multiplying the net profit margin by asset turnover.
 Financial leverage is total assets divided by net worth or owners' equity. This ratio shows the extent to which a retailer is using debt in its total capital structure.
 Return on net worth (RONW) is net profit divided by net worth or owner's equity. Return on net worth is usually used to measure owner's performance. The ROA multiplied by financial leverage yields RONW.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
