Assume the following information: Selling price per unit $200 Contribution margin ratio 50% Total fixed costs $275,000 How many units must be sold to generate a profit of $50,000

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit $200

Contribution margin ratio 50%

Total fixed costs $275,000

Desired profit= $50,000

First, we need to calculate the sales required to obtain the desired profit:

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= (275,000 + 50,000) / 0.5

Break-even point (dollars)= $650,000

Now, the number of units:

Number of units= 650,000 / 200= 3,250

Or, you can use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (275,000 + 50,000) / (0.5*200)

Break-even point in units= 3,250

You run a hospital with 100 rooms. Fixed daily cost is $935.00 which includes staff salary, property charges, maintenance etc. Variable cost per room is $10.00 which includes cleaning, equipment rentals, utility cost etc. which is incurred only when the room is full. You charge $77.00 per room per day. You sold 40.00 rooms today, how much profit/loss did you earn for today.

Answers

Answer: $1,745

Explanation:

Profit ( loss) = Sales -  Fixed costs - Variable costs

Sales = Rate per room * number of rooms rented

= 77 * 40

= $3,080

Variable costs = 40 * 10 per room

= $400

Profit (loss) = 3,080 - 935 - 400

= $1,745

The North Division of XYZ Corporation had average operating assets of $1,110,000 and net operating income of $295,200 in January. The company uses residual income to evaluate the performance of its divisions, with a minimum required rate of return of 20%.
Required:
What was the North Division's residual income in January?

Answers

Answer:

$73,200

Explanation:

From the above details, we know that;

Residual income =

[Net operating income - (Average operating assets × minimum rate of return)]

= [$295,200 - ($1,110,000 × 20%)]

= [$295,200 - $222,000]

= $73,200

Therefore, the North division's residual income in January is $73,200

uppose you invest, every month, in an annuity that pays 3% interest, compounded monthly. After 25 years, you have $550,000. How much money do you earn from interest

Answers

Answer: $180,046

Explanation:

First find the annuity that was invested monthly that yielded $550,000.

Interest rate = 3%/12 months = 0.25%

Period = 25 * 12 = 300 months

Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( ( 1 + rate) ^ no. of periods - 1) / rate

550,000 = Annuity * ( ( 1 + 0.25%)³⁰⁰ - 1 ) / 0.25%

550,000 = Annuity * 446

Annuity = 550,000 / 446

Annuity = $1,233.18

Without compounding, investing $1,233.18 per month would have yielded:

= 1,233.18 * 300 months

= $369,954

Money earned from interest is:

= 550,000 - 369,954

= $180,046

The Richmond Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company has only a single processing department. The company's ending work in process inventory on August 31 consisted of 18,600 units. The units in the ending work in process inventory were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the cost per equivalent unit for August was $2.90 for materials and $4.40 for labor and overhead, the total cost assigned to the ending work in process inventory was: Multiple Choice $103,044 $81,468 $135,780 $86,676

Answers

Answer:

A. $103,044

Explanation:

Ending work in progress inventory = 18,600 units

Cost of equivalent unit for material = $2.90 per unit

Ending work in progress inventory i= 100% complete for material

Total cost of inventory for material = 18,600 units * $2.90 per unit

Total cost of inventory for material = $53,940

Cost of equivalent unit for labor = $4.40

Ending work in progress = 60% complete for labor

Cost of ending work in progress = $4.40 * 60% * 18,600

Cost of ending work in progress = $49,104

Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $53,940 + $49,104

Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $103,044

Before theâ crisis, the Fed held mainly governmentâ securities, which it used to control the quantity of money in the economy. Now government securities make up justâ 35% of theâ Fed's balance sheet.

Required:

Answers

Answer:

The actions of the Fed in 2009 are consistent with an expansionary monetary policy and this policy reduces or keeps interest rates low.

When the Fed bought that many government securities, they flooded the economy with $300 billion in cash. This cash would make its way into the pockets of people and into their bank accounts as savings.

With that many savings, banks would have much more money to loan out to people and as a result of this increase in the supply of loanable funds, interest would fall in order to entice people to borrow more of these excess funds.

An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,400 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.60 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:

Answers

Answer: $91120

Explanation:

The The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company will be calculated thus:

Incremental revenue = (3400 × $90.40) = $307360

Less: Incremental Cost

Direct material (3400 × $49.60) = $168640

Direct labor (3400 × $9.5) = $32300

Variable manufacturing overhead = (3400 × $2.5) = $8500

Variable selling & administrative expense = (3400 × $2) = $6800

Total incremental Cost = $216240

Therefore, the monthly financial advantage will be:

= $$307360 - $216240

= $91120

Down and Out Co. operates an executive placement service for corporate executives displaced by corporate restructuring. Its monthly total cost of cases is given by TC = 25 Q 1/2 + 2,500; the average cost at a caseload of 25 attempted placements per month is:

Answers

Answer:

The average cost at a caseload of 25 attempted placements per month is 105.

Explanation:

The total cost function given in the question first correctly stated as follows:

TC = 25Q^1/2 + 2,500 ................ (1)

A caseload of 25 attempted placements implies that:

Q = 25

Substitute Q = 25 into equation (1), we have:

TC = (25 * 25^(1/2)) + 2,500 = 2,625

The average cost (AC) can now be calculated as follows:

AC = TC / Q = 2,625 / 25 = 105

Therefore, the average cost at a caseload of 25 attempted placements per month is 105.

Market efficiency is probably the most controversial concept in finance. Even recent winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics come down on opposite sides of the issue. Nonetheless, it is important for you to grapple with this idea. It has very important practical implications for investment decisions, including (especially) for your personal investment decision. In particular, should you pursue active or passive strategies

Answers

Answer:

Active strategies should be pursued when the market is more volatile, with larger fluctuations over a shorter period of time, that require a more active management of a portfolio, in order to take advantage of fast changing positions in different assets, and also in order to avoid possible losses due to staying in particular positions for too long.

Passive strategies is more long-term focused, and should be pursued when the economy is more stable. Passive strategies should be analyzed carefully before execution because once the passive investment is made, the idea is to keep the position for a long period of time instead of buying and selling constantly as in a active strategy.

Corn Dog Corp expects net income next year to be $609,000. Inventory and accounts receivable will have to be increased by $302,000 to accommodate this sales level. Corn Dog will pay dividends of $403,000. How much external financing will Corn Dog need assuming no organically generated increase in liabilities

Answers

Answer:

$96,000

Explanation:

Increase in current assets = $302,000

Retained earnings = Net income - Dividends

Retained earnings = $609,000 - $403,000

Retained earnings = $206,000

External financing needed = Increase in current assets - Retained earnings

External financing needed = $302,000 - $206,000

External financing needed = $96,000

Six engineering students have an idea for a new product that they plan to launch in 3 years after graduation. In three years, each engineer will need $7,500 to begin the venture. How much should be invested by each student each year if the interest rate is 6%

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $2,355.82

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of periods (n)= 3 years

Future Value (FV)= $7,500

Interest rate (i)= 6%

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (7,500*0.06) / [(1.06^3) - 1]

A= $2,355.82

Answers

Answer: $9091

Explanation:

The real value of the savings if the price level increases by 6 percent for the year will be calculated thus:

Real Value = Nominal Value × CPI of previous year / CPI of current year

The CPI of current year will be:

= 100 + (100 × 10/100)

= 110%
