A company has fixed costs of $96,800. Its contribution margin ratio is 44% and the product sells for $61 per unit.
What is the company's break-even point in dollar sales?
$220,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the company's break-even point in dollar sales
Using this formula
Break-Even point in dollars sales= Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin
Let plug in the formula
Break-Even point in dollars sales=$96,800/44%
Break-Even point in dollars sales=$220,000
Therefore the company's break-even point in dollar sales will be $220,000.
A large technology Company decides to create an entrepreneurship friendly space, where small enterprises can operate in close proximity to one another. To create this space, which will be called Zone Forty-Two, the Company will construct office space, which will be rented to tenants for free. The Company is considering two start-up firms, B Enterprises (a business software producer) and M Enterprises (a medical software producer). Both firms are currently located in different small towns of California, where they work out of their homes hence pay no rent. The sales volume for a firm if it locates at Zone Forty-Two depends on whether the other firm is also present. These sales volumes, along with the firms’ sales at their current home locations, are presented in Table 1.
table 1 home- town locations zone forty-two(alone) zone forty-two(with other firm)
b enterprises 600 600 670
m enterprises 700 700 950
Give an intuitive explanation why the sales figures are in the last column of Table 1 differ from the first two columns of the table. Hint: Elaborate on different types of economies that are likely to benefit firms locating next to each other in Zone Forty-Two.
Answer:
Zone-Forty-Two
Types of Economies Benefiting Firms Locating Next to Each Other:
Basically, internal and external economies of scale result from firms locating next to one another. While internal economies of scale are specific to a firm because they are internally generated savings, external economies of scale bring about larger changes outside the firm so that all the firms that are located next to one another benefit.
For example, when firms locate next to each other, there is increased procurement management, availability of specialized managers, availability of financial sources, and market improvement. These are internally-focused economies.
On the other hand, the external benefits that come from agglomeration of firms include the availability of common infrastructure, supply chain, innovation and ideas, and ability to lobby the authorities.
As a result of these economies or benefits, firms b and m enterprises are able to generate more increased sales as they locate close to each other at Zone Forty-Two than they could generate while they were located at their home-towns or alone at Zone Forty-Two.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Firms' Sales
Firms Hometown Zone forty-two Zone forty-two
locations (alone) (with other firm)
b enterprises 600 600 670
m enterprises 700 700 950
These economies resulting from proximate locations of firms include the growth of technical, marketing, commercial, financial benefits, and some network effects. Therefore, it is always interesting to study how firms grow more as they compete and learn from one another than they do when they dominate their individual hometown markets.

You bought two acres of land for $200,000 ten years ago. Although it is zoned for commercial use, it currently holds eight small, singlefamily houses. A property management firm that wants to continue leasing the eight houses has offered you $400,000 for the property. A developer wants to build a 12-story apartment building on the site and has offered $600,000. What value should you assign to the property
Answer:
$500,000
Explanation:
in order to calculate the value you should determine the expected return or sales price of the land = price of land x probability of sale
In this case, you have two offers and apparently you haven't decided which to choose, so the expected return = ($400,000 x 50%) + ($600,000 x 50%) = $200,000 + $300,000 = $500,000
Problem 4-54 (LO. 4, 5) Linda and Don are married and file a joint return. In 2020, they received $12,000 in Social Security benefits and $35,000 in taxable pension benefits and interest. The applicable higher/lower bases for Social Security computations for married filing jointly are $32,000 and $44,000. a. Compute the couple's adjusted gross income on a joint return. $fill in the blank 7fe2a4f7afc4f82_1 b. Don would like to know whether they should sell for $100,000 (at no gain or loss) a corporate bond that pays 8% in interest each year and use the proceeds to buy a $100,000 nontaxable State of Virginia bond that will pay $6,000 in interest each year. Assume that their marginal tax rate is 12%. Although the interest received on the state bond is , it still is in modified adjusted gross income, impacting the taxability of the Social Security benefit. Their AGI would be $fill in the blank c572caf67feefd0_3 . c. In the preceding situation part (a), if Linda works part-time and earns $30,000, by how much would Linda and Don's adjusted gross income increase
Answer:
The answer to this question can be defined as follows:
Explanation:
For point a:
Chargeable advantages to social welfare:
[tex]=0.5(\$35000+0.5(\$12000)-\$32000)\\\\ =0.5(9000)\\\\=\$4500[/tex]
Pension benefits etc $35 thousand
Total AGI= [tex]\$39,500[/tex]
For point b:
Additional revenue [tex](\$3,500-\$8,000) = \$27,000[/tex]
Taxable [tex]SSB0.5(27000+\$6000+0.5\times 12000-\$32000)=\$3500[/tex]
AGI = [tex]\$30,500[/tex]
Less: AGI in (a) [tex](\$39,500)[/tex]
Decrease [tex](\$9000)[/tex]
Tax payers' financial income has been down by [tex]\$2000[/tex], but taxable AGI is down by $9,000. The reduction of [tex]\$650(\$2000-\$9000\times 15 \%)[/tex] with a [tex]15\%[/tex]MTR after the tax income.
For point c:
The least of follows [tex]1). \ \ 0.85( \$65000+0.5 \times 12000-\$44000) = \$22950[/tex]
Smaller than that one
Calculated amount with the first formula
Less:
[tex]0.5\times 12000 = \$6000\\\\0.5(\$65000+0.5 \times 12000-\$32000)= \$19500 \ \ or \ \ \$6000\\\\\$22950 +\$6000 = \$28950 \\\\2.0.85 \times 12000 = \$10200[/tex]
That is why Linda and Don have [tex]85\%[/tex]of their gross income from the SSB [tex]\$10200[/tex].
The benefits of social security [tex]\$10200[/tex]
Additional revenues [tex]=\$35000+\$30000 \ \ (addl.inc)= \$ 65000[/tex]
AGI [tex]\$75,200[/tex]
Less (a) AGI ([tex]\$39,500[/tex])
Increases [tex]\$ 35,700[/tex]
AGI growth exceeds earnings increases because more SSB is taxed.

Item1 1 points eBookAskReferencesItem 1 TB MC Qu. 06-91 The following information... The following information is taken from Reagan Company's December 31 balance sheet: Cash and cash equivalents $ 8,419 Accounts receivable 70,422 Merchandise inventories 60,362 Prepaid expenses 4,100 Accounts payable $ 14,950 Notes payable 86,638 Other current liabilities 9,500 If net sales for the current year were $612,000, the firm's days' sales uncollected for the year is: (Use 365 days a year.)
Answer: 42 days
Explanation:
To solve the above question, first, we will have to calculate the debtors turnover ratio which is the date sales uncollected for the year. This will be:
= Sales/Average Accounts Receivables
= $612,000 / $70,422
= 8.69 times
Since we are using 365 days for a year, then the firm's days sales uncollected for the year will be calculated as:
= 365 / 8.69
= 42 days

The controller (money manager) for a small company puts some money in a bank account paying 3% per year. He uses some additional money, amounting to 1/3 the amount placed in the bank, to buy bonds paying 4% per year. With the balance of the funds, he buys a 9% certificate of deposit. The first year the investments bring a return of $785. If the total of the investments is $10,000 how much is invested at each rate?
Answer:
$1,500 is invested in a bank account paying 3% per year.
$500 is used to buy bonds paying 4% per year.
$8,000 is used to buy 10% certificate of deposit
Explanation:
Let
x = money used to invest in a bank account paying 3% per year
y = money used to buy 10% certificate of deposit
Because the money used to buy bonds (that pays 4% per year) is equal to one-third of the money used to invest in a bank account paying 3% per year,
x/3 = money used to buy bonds (that pays 4% per year)
Because the total investment is $10,000, we add all the variables that represents the amount of money for each investments. So,
(1)
To compute the return of each investment, we change the rate to decimal and multiply it to the amount of investment because the problem only states the return of first year of investment. Then,
0.03x = return from a bank account paying 3% per year
0.04(x/3) = return from a bond paying 4% per year
0.1y = return from 10% certificate of deposit
Since the total return for the first year of investment is $865, we just add the returns of each investment and create the following equation:
Note: In equation (2), we want to have an equation with 3y so that when we subtract equation (1) to equation (2), we only have an equation involving x, which is easier to solve.
By subtracting equation (1) to equation (2),
(4x + 3y) - (1.3x + 3y) = 30,000 - 25,950
2.7x = 4,050
x = $1,500 = amount deposited in a bank account paying 3% per year
So,
x/3 = 1500/3
x/3 = $500 = amount used to buy bonds paying 4% per year
Using the value of x = 1,500 and replacing the value of x in equation (1),
4x + 3y = 30,000
4(1,500) + 3y = 30,000
6,000 + 3y = 30,000
3y = 24,000
y = $8,000 = money used to buy 10% certificate of deposit

Inflation, nominal interest rates, and real rates. From 1991 to 2000, the U.S. economy had an annual inflation rate of around %. The historical annual nominal risk-free rate for this same period was around %. Using the approximate nominal interest rate equation and the true nominal interest rate equation, compute the real interest rate for that decade. What is the estimated real interest rate using the approximate nominal interest rate equation for that decade?
Answer:
the question is incomplete:
nominal interest rate = 5.07%
real interest rate = ?
inflation rate = 3.45%
approximate real interest rate = 5.07% - 3.45% = 1.62%
real interest rate = [(1 + 5.07%) / (1 + 3.45%)] - 1
real interest rate = (1.0507/1.0345) - 1 = 1.57%
A trading company on April 30, paid BD 750,000 for a machine which can produce 1,400,000 units in 10 years life. The machine have a salvage value of BD 50,000 and produce 25,000 units in first year, 45,000 units in second year and 70,000 units in third year. Compute depreciation expense for the Second year assuming the company uses the unit production method. O A. 22500 O B. 35000 O C. 12500 O D. 15000
Answer: A. BD 22,500
Explanation:
First find the depreciation per unit:
= (Cost of machine -Salvage value) / Total units to be produced over lifetime
= (750,000 - 50,000) / 1,400,000
= BD 0.5 per unit
There are 45,000 units to be produced in the second year:
= 45,000 * 0.5
= BD 22,500

On January 1, 2015, Lake Co. purchased a machine for $1,056,000 and calculated depreciation using the straight-line method, with an estimated useful life of eight years, and no salvage value. On January 1, 2018, Lake determined that the machine had a useful life of six years from the date of acquisition, and a salvage value of $96,000. An accounting change was made in 2018 to reflect these data. The accumulated depreciation for this machine should have a balance at December 31, 2018, of ________. Group of answer choices
Answer:
$584,000
Explanation:
The computation of the accumulated depreciation is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be determined
Depreciation for 3 years = $1,056,000 ÷ 8 years × 3 years
= $396,000
Now the written down value is
= $1,056,000 - $396,000 - $96,000
= $564,000
For one year it would be
= $564,000 ÷ 3
= $188,000
Now the accumulated depreciation is
= $396,000 + $188,000
= $584,000
On January 1, 2021, Oliver Foods issued stock options for 47,000 shares to a division manager. The options have an estimated fair value of $7 each. To provide additional incentive for managerial achievement, the options are not exercisable unless Oliver Foods' stock price increases by 6% in four years. Oliver Foods initially estimates that it is not probable the goal will be achieved. How much compensation will be recorded in each of the next four years
Answer:
$82,250
Explanation:
the compensation per year = 47,000 x 1/4 x$7 per stock = $82,250
The compensation must be allocated proportionally to every year included in the plan, regardless of the conditions specified by the plan. The stock price already implicitly includes the most probable market conditions for the company, so that is the price that has to be used to record the compensation plan.

3) Tobi owns a perpetuity that will pay $1,500 a year, starting one year from now. He offers to sell you all of the remaining payments after the next 25 payments have been paid. (A) What price should you offer him for payments 26 onward if you desire a rate of return of 8 percent
Answer:
you should pay up to $2,737.84 to Tobi
Explanation:
first, the terminal price of the perpetuity must be determined = annual payment / r = $1,500 / .08 = $18,750
now, the present day value of the future terminal value
present value = future value / (1 + r)ⁿ = $18,750 / (1 + 8%)²⁵ = $2,737.84
An alumnus of West Virginia University wishes to start an endowment that will provide scholarship money of $40,000 per year beginning in year 5 and continuing indefinitely.

Sawyer Manufacturing Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. Last year, the Corporation worked 57,000 actual direct labor-hours and incurred $345,000 of actual manufacturing overhead cost. The Corporation had estimated that it would work 55,000 direct labor-hours during the year and incur $330,000 of manufacturing overhead cost. The Corporation's manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:
Answer:
Underapplied by $3,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what The Corporation's manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:
First step is to calculate the Predetermined Overhead rate
Predetermined Overhead rate=( $ 330,000/ 55,000)
Predetermined Overhead rate= $ 6 per labor hour
Now let calculate the Manufacturing overhead cost
Manufacturing overhead cost= (6 x 57 000)-$345,000
Manufacturing overhead cost=$342,000-$345,000
Manufacturing overhead cost=Underapplied by $3,000
Therefore The Corporation's manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:underapplied by $3,000

Owens Corning has total assets of $800,000, long-term debt of $240,000, stockholders' equity of $350,000, and current liabilities of $210,000. The dividend payout ratio is 30 percent and the profit margin is 8 percent. Assume all assets and current liabilities change spontaneously with sales and the firm is currently operating at full capacity. What is the external financing need (EFN) if the current sales of $1,000,000 are projected to increase by 20 percent
Answer:
$50,800
Explanation:
Increase in assets = Current Assets * Percentage change in sales = $800,000 * 20% = $160,000
Increase in current liabilities = Current liabilities * Percentage change in sales = $210,000 * 20% = $42,000
Increase in retaned earning = Increased sales*Profit Margin*Retention ratio = $1,000,000*120%*8%*(1-0.30) = $67,200
External financing need = Increase in Assets - Increase in liabilities - Increase in retained earning
External financing need = $160,000 - $42,000 - $67,200
External financing need = $50,800
Imagine that after completing your economics course (you get an A, of course) you are at a family gathering. Your grandmother asks you about a news story she read this morning. The story explained that when the government adjusts Social Security payments for inflation, it generally uses the CPI-W, which is the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers. Because senior citizens spend a lot more than average on medical care, adjustments to their Social Security payments are not keeping up with their cost of living.
Last year I received $15,000 per year from the government. The story said that the CPI increased from 144 to 162. How much will I get this year?
Answer:
$16,875
Explanation:
The amount received per year is $15,000 and the CPI increased from 144 to 162
Inflation rate = (New CPI - Old CPI)/Old CPI * 100
Inflation rate = 162-144/144 * 100
Inflation rate = 0.125
Inflation rate = 12.5%
Amount received = $15,000 * 12.5% = $1,875
==> $15,000 + $1,875 = $16,875
So, Grandmother will receive $16,875

Roquan, a single taxpayer, is an attorney and practices as a sole proprietor. This year, Roquan had net business income of $90,000 from his law practice (net of the associated for AGI self-employment tax deduction). Assume that Roquan pays $40,000 in wages to his employees, has $10,000 of property (unadjusted basis of equipment he purchased last year), and has no capital gains or qualified dividends. His taxable income before the deduction for qualified business income is $100,000.
1. Calculate Roquan's deduction for qualified business income.
2. Assume the same facts as earlier, except Roquan's taxable income before the deduction for qualified business income is $300,000.
Answer:
A. $18,000
B. No QBI deduction
Explanation:
a) Calculation for Roquan’s deduction for qualified business income.
