The break-even point in sales dollars for the entire company is closest to
A. $75,330
B. $74,306
C. $30,930
D. $46,070

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. $74,306

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate contribution margin for both.

Product 105L

Sales $32,000

Less variable expenses ($10,880)

Contribution margin $21,120

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales

= $21,120 ÷ $32,000

= 66%

Product P42T

Sales $45,000

Less variable expenses ($18,380)

Contribution margin $26,620

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales

= $26,620 ÷ $45,000

= 59.2%

Total sales for both products $77,000

Less Total variable expenses ($29,260)

Total contribution margin $47,740

Total contribution margin ratio $47,740 ÷ $77,000 = 62%

Fixed expenses for both companies = $46,070

Therefore,

Break even point in sales for both companies = Total fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $46,070 ÷ 62%

= $74,306.45

Explanation:

Gross profit margin is calculated by dividing the gross profit by the sales and multiplying by 100.  In this case, the gross profit is $212,800 ($760,200 - $547,400).  The amount, $212,800, then divided by $760,200 and multiplied by 100 to obtain approximately 28%.

The dollar is the monetary unit for all business transactions conducted in the United States.  The accounting assumption behind the monetary unit means that all transactions conducted in the United STates are reported in dollars.

​Omega's policy is to have 30% of the following month's sales in inventory. On January 1, inventory equaled 8,000 units. February production in units is:_________

a, 20,000.
b. 26,500.
c. 40,000.
d. 36,000.
e. 28,000

Answers

Answer:

d. 36,000

Explanation:

Given the following data,

Units;

February = 30,000

March = 50,000

In order to calculate February production in units, the sales for the month and the required ending inventory will be added together and then deduct the beginning inventory.

February Production in units ;

Sales for the month = 30,000

Ending inventory = [50,000 × 0.3] = 15,000

Beginning inventory = [30,000 × 0.3] = [9,000]

Total = 36,000 units.

The fund has not borrowed any funds, but its accrued management fee with the portfolio manager currently totals $30,000. There are 4 million shares outstanding. What is the net asset value of the fund?

Answers

Answer: $10.49

Explanation:

Net Asset Value is the equity of the portfolio divided by the number of shares outstanding.

Equity = Assets - Liabilities

So,

Net Asset Value = (Assets - Liabilities) / No. of shares outstanding

Assets = (200,000 * 35) + (300,000 * 40) + (400,000 * 20) + (600,000 * 25)

= $42,000,000

Liabilities will be the accrued management fee.

Net Asset Value = (42,000,000 - 30,000) / 4,000,000

= 10.4925

= $10.49

What is the weighted average cost of capital of Corporation?

Answers

Answer:

The weighted average cost of capital of Corporation is 11.4%

Explanation:

Now use following formula to calculate the weighted average cost of equity

WACC = ( Weight of equity x Cost of equity ) + ( Weight of debt x Cost of debt (after tax ) )

Weight

Equity  = 100%

Debt = 50%

Cost

First we need to calculate the cost of equity using CAPM formula

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta x ( Market risk premium )

Placing values in the formula

Cost of equity = 8% + 0.90 x  7%

Cost of equity = 14.3%

Cost of debt = 8%

Cost of debt (after tax ) = 8% x ( 1 - 30% ) = 5.6%

Placing values in the formula of Weighted average cost of capital

WACC = ( ( 100%/150% ) x 14.3% ) + ( ( 50% / 150% ) x 5.6% )

WACC = 9.53% + 1.87%

WACC = 11.4%

A perfectly competitive firm shuts down in the short run when:________. A. economic losses occur. B. the price is below the average total cost curve. C. the price is below the average variable cost curve. D. the price is below the average fixed cost curve.

Answers

Answer:

C. the price is below the average variable cost curve.

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.

Hence, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;

1. Perfect information.

2. No barriers, it is typically free.

3. Equilibrium price and quantity.

4. Many buyers and sellers.

5. Homogeneous products.

Some examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.

A perfectly competitive firm shuts down in the short run when the price it is selling its goods (products) in the market is below the average variable cost curve.

This ultimately implies that, a business firm should only continue to be in operation when its price is above or greater than its average variable costs based on the shutdown rule.

When an increasing trend exists in the data and a single exponential smoothing forecast method is used, the forecast will:_______.
a) predict demand perfectly
b) generally underestimate demand
c) capture the trend
d) increase the trend
e) none of the above

Answers

Answer:

c) capture the trend

Explanation:

The exponential smoothing is a forecasting method that is used for a time series and the data i.e. univariate. It could be extended for data support that have the chronological trend

Here in the given situation, if the trend i.e. increased in the data and the above method is used so in the case when the value of the alpha is more it would capture the trend but in the case when the value of the alpha is less so it also capture the demand but the demand is underestimated

Hence, the option c is correct

The exponential smoothing method is a time series forecasting method of the univariate data that is extended to support systematic trends and seasonal components.

his method is used when some trends may be present, weight-based on experimental and intuition and orderly data is less important. The single parameter controls the rate at which the pbservatiosna are influenced.  While the double method is an extension of smoothing that adds support for trends in time series.

Hence the option D is correct.
