Workings:

w1. Variable selling expenses = Sales * Commission percentage

Poinsettias = $970,000 * 4% = $38,8000

Fruit Trees = $3,100,000 * 4% = $124,000

w2. Allocation of common expenses using the following assuptions:

a) Use cost of goods sold (COGS) to allocate Common fixed overhead:

Poinsettias = (460,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (1,630,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $623,923

b) Use common selling and administrative expense using Sales:

Poinsettias = (970,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (3,100,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $623,923

When you decide to go and have a dinner with your friends in a world class hotel such as the Golden Tulip or La Pleasure Beach, perhaps you would be horrified by the high price you would have to pay for a bottle of soft drink such as Coca Cola or Pepsi Cola or wine or even bottled water. Perhaps you begin to ponder why the same commodity that you can get at a supermarket at one tenth the hotel price is going for such an astronomical price at the hotel. Of course, such facilities will have a warning such “you are not allowed to bring in your own food or drinks” posted at appropriate places in the facility for the attention of customers.In another scenario, you enter a designer shop to buy clothes with a designer label for a friend on their birthday or on Valentine day and you reckon the clothes are so much expensive compared to similar own brand clothes from a clothing or chain store, even though they may cost a similar amount to produce. Using your knowledge in basic economics, especially of the concept of demand and supply, attributes of a competitive market and price elasticity of demand, briefly discuss the following:
A. Why may a hotel charge such very high prices for wine, soft drinks or even bottled water and yet quite reasonable prices for food and still get away with such high prices? B. Why are designer shops able to price their clothes so very expensive and yet still get clients even though similar clothes that are available in a supermarket chain shops cost pretty much less?

Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 20% from $7.6 million in 2016 to $9.12 million in 2017. Its assets totaled $4 million at the end of 2016. Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2016, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 70%. What would be the additional funds needed? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ Assume that an otherwise identical firm had $5 million in total assets at the end of 2016. The identical firm's capital intensity ratio (A0*/S0) is higher than than Broussard's; therefore, the identical firm is -Select- capital intensive - it would require -Select- increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
