Answer:
The correct answer is 45%.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
Selling price = $640
Variable cost = $352
Annual fixed cost = $985,500
Current sales volume = $4,390,000
So, we can calculate the contribution margin ratio by using following formula:
Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin per unit ÷ selling price per unit ) × 100
Where, Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= $640 - $352 = $288
So, by putting the value in the formula, we get
Contribution margin ratio = ( $288 ÷ $640 ) × 100
= 0.45 × 100
= 45%
Answer:
9%
Explanation:
WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.
According to WACC formula
WACC = ( Cost of common stock x Weightage of common stock ) + ( Cost of preferred stock x Weightage of preferred stock ) + ( Cost of debt ( 1- t) x Weightage of debt )
As WACC is calculated using Market values.
Company Value = 100%
Value of Debt = 28%
Value of Debt = 100% - 28% = 72%
WACC = ( 10.54% x 72% ) + ( 5.27% x 28% )
WACC = 7.59% + 1.48% = 9.07% = 9% (rounded off)

Answer:
a. $1,028 million
b. 46.7%
Explanation:
a. Dividends are taken from the retained earnings and net income is added to the retained earnings. The formula for ending retained earnings is;
Ending retained earnings = Opening Retained earnings + Net Income - Dividends
14,329 = 13,157 + 2,200 - Dividends
Dividends = 13,157 + 2,200 - 14,329
Dividends = $1,028 million
b. Dividends as a percentage of income
= 1,028/2,200
= 0.467
= 46.7%
Answer:
If volume reaches 500 units, net income will be: $715
Explanation:
When volume of sales was at 400 units:
Selling price per unit = Sales Revenue/400 = $1,600/400 = $4
Variable Cost per unit = Variable Cost/400 = $700/400 = $1.75
If volume reaches 500 units:
Total Sales Revenue = $4 x 500 = $2,000
Variable Cost = $1.75 x 500 = $875
Fixed Cost will not change = $410
Net income = Total Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost = $2,000 - $875 - $410 = $715
