For a recent year, McDonald's company-owned restaurants had the following sales and expenses (in millions):
Sales $18,169.3
Food and packaging $ 6,129.7
Payroll 4,756.0
Occupancy (rent, depreciation, etc.) 4,402.6
General, selling, and administrative expenses 2,487.9
$17,776.2
Income from operations $ 393.1
Assume that the variable costs consist of food and packaging, payroll, and 40% of the general, selling, and administrative expenses.
a. What is McDonald's contribution margin? Round to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio? Round to one decimal place.
c. How much would income from operations increase if same-store sales increased by $500 million for the coming year, with no change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Variable food and packaging = $6,129.7
Variable payroll = $4,756.0
Variable general, selling and administrative expenses = 40% × $2,487.9 = $995.16
Fixed general, selling and administrative expenses = 60% × $2,487.9 = $1,492.74
Fixed occupancy = $4,402.6
Total fixed cost = $1,492.84 + $4,402.6 = $5,895.34
Total variable cost = Variable food and packaging + Variable payroll + Variable general, selling and administrative expenses
= $6,129.7 + $4,756 + $995.16
= $11,880.86
a. McDonald's contribution margin
= Sales - Variable cost
= $18,169.3 - $11,880.86
= $6,288.44
b. McDonald's contribution margin
= Contribution margin / Sales
= $6,288.44 / $18,169.3
= 34.61%
c. Increase in operating income
= $500 million × 34.71
= $173,050,000

The Jamison Company's inventory was destroyed on July 4, 2016, when its warehouse caught on fire early in the morning. Inventory was totally destroyed. The accounting records, which were located in a fireproof vault, contained the following information: Sales (1/1/16 through 7/3/16)$240,000 Purchases (1/1/16 through 7/3/16)180,000 Inventory (1/1/16)45,000 Gross profit ratio25% of cost Using the gross profit method, what is the estimated cost of the inventory that was destroyed by the fire
Answer:
$15,000
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, the estimated cost of inventory that was destroyed by fire is computed as
= [Sales - (Purchases + Inventory)]
Given that;
Sales 1/1/16 through 7/3/16 = $240,000
Purchases 1/1/16 through 7/3/16 = $180,000
Inventory 1/1/16 = $45,000
= [$240,000 - ($180,000 + $45,000)]
= $240,000 - $225,000
= $15,000

Answer:
Soliman Corporation
1. Basic EPS
= $6.18 per share
2. Diluted EPS
= $5.23 per share
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Convertible Preferred Stock = 5,000 or 10,000 Common Shares
Common Stock:
January 1, 2018 = 25,000
May 1, 2018 Issued 9,000
July 1, 2018 Treasury (6,000)
September 1, 2018 Treasury 6,000

Income for Common $210,000
Basic Earnings per share = $210,000/34,000 = $6.18
Diluted Earnings per share = $230,000/44,000 = $5.23
Your company is estimated to make dividends payments of $2.1 next year, $3.6 the year after, and $4.2 in the year after that. The dividends will then grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. If the discount rate is 9% then what is the current stock price
Answer:
P0 = $122.79185 rounded off to $122.79
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so ong is the constant growth rate in dividendsr is the discount rateP0 = 2.1 / (1+0.09) + 3.6 / (1+0.09)^2 + 4.2 / (1+0.09)^3 +
[(4.2 * (1+0.06) / (0.09 - 0.06)) / (1+0.09)^3]
P0 = $122.79185 rounded off to $122.79

Jane Industries manufactures plastic toys. During October, Jane's Fabrication Department started work on 10,400 models. During the month, the company completed 11,200 models, and transferred them to the Distribution Department. The company ended the month with 2200 models in ending inventory. There were 3000 models in beginning inventory. All direct materials costs are added at the beginning of the production cycle and conversion costs are added uniformly throughout the production process. The FIFO method of process costing is being followed. Beginning work in process was 30% complete as to conversion costs, while ending work in process was 55% complete as to conversion costs.
Beginning inventory​:
Direct materials costs $20,000
Conversion costs $11,100
Manufacturing costs added during the accounting period​:
Direct materials costs $70,700
Conversion costs $240,500
What is the amount of direct materials cost assigned to ending work-in-process inventory at the end of October?
a. $19,783
b. $20,337
c. $10,923
d. $14,916
Answer:
d. $14,916
Explanation:
Note that Jane Industries uses FIFO method of process costing.
Step 1 : Equivalent Units in respect of materials
Materials = 3,000 x 0 % + 8,200 x 100% + 2,200 x 100%
= 10,400 units
Step 2 : Cost per Equivalent unit in respect of materials
Cost per Equivalent = $70,700 ÷ 10,400 units
= $6.80
Step 3 : direct materials cost assigned to ending work-in-process
Ending work-in-process (Materials Cost) = 2,200 x $6.80
= $14,960

Answer:
1. estimate the quantity of raw materials to be purchased.
2. ending raw materials inventory for the last period.
Explanation:
A budget is a financial plan used for the estimation of revenue and expenditures of an individual, organization or government for a specified period of time, often one year. Budgets are usually compiled, analyzed and re-evaluated on periodic basis.
The first step of the budgeting process is to prepare a list of each type of income and expense that will be part of the budget.
The final step by the management of an organization in the financial decision making process is making necessary adjustments to the budget.
The benefits of having a budget is that it aids in setting goals, earmarking revenues and resources, measuring outcomes and planning against contingencies.
1. The purpose of preparing a direct materials budget is to estimate the quantity of raw materials to be purchased. This includes the raw materials that would be used for the manufacturing of finished goods.
2. In a direct materials budget, the desired ending raw materials inventory for the year is equal to the ending raw materials inventory for the last period.
All materials are added at the start of production. Refer to Keyser Corporation. Assume that the cost per EUP for material and conversion are $1.75 and $4.55, respectively. What is the cost assigned to ending Work in Process
Answer:
The cost assigned to ending Work in Process explanations only.
Explanation:
Hi your question is incomplete, I tried to look for it online but I could not find it.
Here are some explanations and steps you need to consider to answer this question.
The cost assigned to ending Work in Process :
Ending Work in Process usually have different number of equivalent units of production with respect to materials and conversion cost depending on the percentage of work completed for materials and conversion during the production process.
Step 1
So the first step is to calculate the equivalent units of production of Ending Ending work in process for Materials and Conversion costs.
Equivalent units of production = Physical units x Percentage completion (Materials / Conversion).
Step 2
The next step would be to calculate the cost assigned to ending Work in Process.
Equivalent units in materials are multiplied against Cost per Equivalent Unit) EUP for materials ($1.75 ) so is the Equivalent units in conversion costs against Cost per Equivalent Unit) EUP for conversion ($1.75). The total of the two amounts is the cost assigned to ending Work in Process.

Because of your success in this class, you feel that you are a more savvy investor than your brother and will be able to earn an annual return of 11.2 percent compared to your brother's 10.4 percent. How much less than your brother will you have to deposit today
Answer:
$693.16
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much less than your brother will you have to deposit today
Using this formula
FV= Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years
Let plug in the formula
First step
$28,000 = Present value × (1 + 0.112)^13
PV= $28,000 ÷ 1.112^13
PV= $28,000 ÷ 3.97522975235
PV= $7,043.618
Second step
$28,000 = Present value × (1 + 0.104)^13
PV= $28,000 ÷ 1.104^13
PV= $28,000 ÷ 3.61907808993
PV= $7,736.777
Now let calculate how much less than your brother will you have to deposit today
Deposit today= $7,736.777-$7,043.618
Deposit today= $693.159
Deposit today=$693.16 (Approximately)
Therefore How much less than your brother will you have to deposit today will be $693.16

On January 1, 2000, there were 175,000 tons of trash in a landfill that had a capacity of 325,000 tons. Each year since then, the amount of trash in the landfill increases by 7.500 tons. If y represents the time, in years, after January 1, 2000.
Required:
What inequalities describes the set of years where the landfill is at or above capacity?
Answer: 175,000 + 7,500y ≥ 325,000
Explanation:
On January 1, 2000, there are 175,000 tons of trash in the landfill.
This increases by 7,500 tons every year with y representing the number of years.
This means that in a given year, the amount of trash in the landfill is:
= 175,000 + 7,500y
The capacity is 325,000 tons. In years where the landfill will be at or above capacity, the result of the formula above will be greater than 325,000 tons.
The relevant inequality therefore is:
175,000 + 7,500y ≥ 325,000

Priority Company, which applies overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period just ended: Actual units produced: 9,000 Actual variable overhead incurred: $54,400 Actual machine hours worked: 16,000 Standard variable overhead cost per machine hour: $3.50 If Priority estimates two hours to manufacture a completed unit, the company's variable-overhead efficiency variance is: Multiple Choice None of the answers is correct. $1,600 favorable. $7,000 favorable. $7,000 unfavorable. $1,600 unfavorable.
Answer:
The correct option is $7,000 favorable.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the following formula:
Standard hours for actual units produced = Actual units produced * Estimated number of hours to manufacture a completed unit = 9,000 * 2 = 18,000
Variable-overhead efficiency variance = (Actual machine hours worked - Standard machine hours for actual units produced) * Standard variable overhead cost per machine hour = (16,000 - 18,000) * 3.50 = –$7,000
Since the calculated Variable-overhead efficiency variance is negative, that implies that it is favorable,
Therefore, the correct option is $7,000 favorable.

Contribution margin 210,000 14
Fixed expense (182,000)
Net operating income 28,000
1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.
Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Operating Income = $210,000 / $28,000 = 7.50
2-a. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?
Since:
Degree of Operating Leverage = Percentage change in Operating Income / Percentage change in Sales
Substituting the relevant values, we have:
7.50 = Percentage change in Operating Income / 20%
Percentage change in Operating Income = 7.5 * 20% = 150%
Therefore, the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.
2-b. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)
This can be calculated as follows:
Change in Net Operating Income = 150% * $28,000 = $42,000
Expected amount of Net Operating Income = Current Net Operating Income + Change in Net Operating Income = $28,000 + $42,000 = $70,000

A manager hires labor and rents capital equipment in a very competitive market. Currently the wage rate is $9 per hour and capital is rented at $10 per hour. If the marginal product of labor is 45 units of output per hour and the marginal product of capital is 60 units of output per hour, should the firm increase, decrease, or leave unchanged the amount of capital used in its production process
Answer: Capital should be increased in the production process.
Explanation:
We should note that based on rule of cost minimization, the quantity of capital and labor that's employee by a firm should be one where the MRTS i.e marginal rate of technical substitution between the capital and labor is equal to the wage rental ratio. Therefore,
MRTS = w/r
MPl/MPk = w/r
MPl/w = MPk/r
45/9 < 60/10
5 < 6
Since the ratio isn't equal, it simply means that the firm isn't using optimum mix of inputs. Based on the above, capital should be increased.

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 35 years. To do this, you will invest $710 per month in a stock account and $310 per month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 9.1 percent, and the bond account will earn 5.1 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with an annual return of 6.1 percent. Assume the returns are expressed as APRs.
How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 30-year withdrawal period?
Answer:
monthly payment = $16,162.87
Explanation:
future value of stock account = $710 x= [(1 + 0.00758333)⁴²⁰- 1 ] / 0.00758333 = $2,142,045
future value of bond account = $310 x= [(1 + 0.00425)⁴²⁰- 1 ] / 0.00425 = $360,116
future value = $2,502,161
PVIFA = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.0050833)³⁶⁰ ] / 0.0050833 = 165.019
monthly payment = $2,502,161 / 165.019 = $16,162.87
