Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities = fixed assets / long term liabilities = $971,600 / $694,000 = 1.4

Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = total liabilities / stockholders' equity = $834,000 / $2,780,000 = 0.3

Asset turnover = net sales / average total assets = $21,141,000 / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 6

Return on total assets = (net income + interest expense) / average total assets = ($386,000 + $41,640) / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 12.14%

Return on stockholders’ equity = net income / average stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($2,780,000 + $2,558,000) = 14.46%

Return on common stockholders' equity = net income / average common stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($1,946,000 + $1,724,000) = 21.04%

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

is calculated after the variable cost per unit is calculated

Explanation:

Costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

In Financial accounting, fixed cost can be defined as predetermined expenses in a business that remain constant for a specific period of time regardless of the quantity of production or level of outputs. Some examples of fixed costs in business are loan payments, employee salary, depreciation, rent, insurance, lease, utilities, etc.

On the other hand, variable costs can be defined as expenses that are not constant and as such usually change directly and are proportional to various changes in business activities. Some examples of variable costs are taxes, direct labor, sales commissions, raw materials, operational expenses, etc.

Using the high-low method, the fixed cost can only be calculated after the variable cost (VC) per unit is calculated through the application of either the low or high level of activity.
