Company A uses the FIFO method to account for inventory and Company B uses the LIFO method. The two companies are exactly alike except for the difference in inventory cost flow assumptions.  The debt-to-equity ratio measures your company's total debt relative to the amount originally invested by the owners and the earnings that have been retained over time.

The debt to equity ratio using the book value of equity in 2019 would be 2.29.

Finding the debt-to-equity ratio.

This can be found by the formula:

= Interest bearing Debt / Book value of equity

= (Notes payable + Current maturities of long term debt + Long term debt) / Book value of equity

= (10.5 + 39.9 + 239.7) / 126.6

= 2.29

15 Total                                 $525,000.00       $120.00

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Fixed production cost =                     200,000

Total production cost =                $3,062,000

                                                   Total          Per Unit

Sales revenue =                    $4,320,000    $160

Variable production costs = $2,862,000      106

Variable expenses                     378,000         14

Total variable costs              $3,240,000    $120

Contribution =                       $1,080,000      $40

Contribution margin ratio = 25% ($40/$160 * 100)

Total fixed costs:

Production costs = $200,000

Selling and admin = 325,000

Total fixed costs = $525,000

Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit

= $525,000/$40 = 13,125

Break-even point in dollars = $525,000/25% = $2,100,000
