Answer:

$300,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Contribution margin ratio = 40%

Company desires to earn a profit = $40,000

Fixed costs = $80,000

Required sales revenue:

= (Fixed cost + Desired profit) ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= ($80,000 + $40,000) ÷ 0.40

= $120,000 ÷ 0.40

= $300,000

Therefore, the sales revenue of $300,000 would have to be generated in order to earn the desired profit.

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Assume that r_1  will be a 12-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.25 \% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to \frac{1.25}{100} \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(\frac{1.25}{100} \times \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to \frac{1.25}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(\frac{1.25}{2} +100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{( 0.625 +100)}{(\frac{2+r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{( 100.625)}{(\frac{2+r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}=98\\\\

\to 0.61875 + \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 -98 = \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}\\\\\to -97.38125= \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}\\\\\to (2+r_1)^2= \frac{402.5}{ -97.38125}\\\\\to (2+r_1)^2= -4.13\\\\ \to r_1=3.304\%

Assume that r_2  will be a 18-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.5\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+1.5\%  \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{3.300\%}{2})^2}+\frac{(1.5\%  \times  \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to \frac{1.5}{100} \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+\frac{1.5}{100}  \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(\frac{1.5}{100}  \times  \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\

\to \frac{1.5}{2}  \times 0.99+\frac{1.5}{2}\times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(\frac{1.5}{2} +100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 0.7425+0.75 \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(0.75  +100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4925 \times \frac{1}{(1+0.0165)^2}+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4925 \times \frac{1}{(1.033)}+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\

\to 1.4925 \times 0.96+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4328+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4328-97= \frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}\\\\\to -95.5672= \frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}\\\\\to (1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3= -1.054\\\\\to r_2=3.577\%

Assume that r_3  will be a 18-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+\frac{3.300\%}{2})^2}+1.25\%\times\frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+\frac{3.577\%}{2})^3}+(1.25\% \times \frac{\frac{100}{2}+100}{(1+\frac{r_3}{2})^4})=96\\\\

to solve this we get r_3=3.335\%

garri49 [273]

Answer:

  a) 120 skiers per day

  b) 6.25% increase in revenue

Explanation:

a) If the average skier stays 10 days, the average turnover is 1/10 of the skiers per day, or 1200/10 = 120 skiers per day.

__

b) For a stay of n days, the average skier spends ...

  50 +(n-1)30 = 20 +30n

and the average spending per day is ...

  (20 +30n)/n = (20/n) +30

So, for a 10-day stay, the average skier spends in restaurants ...

  20/10 +30 = 32 . . . . per day

And for a 5-day stay, the average skier will spend ...

  20/5 +30 = 34 . . . . per day

The change in restaurant revenue is expected to be ...

  (34 -32)/32 × 100% = 2/32 × 100% = 6.25%

Restaurant revenues will be 6.25% higher compared to last year.

Trava [24]

Answer:

Loss of $500

Explanation:

Given that

Stock price = 123

Strike price = 125

Premium price = 5

Recall that

Long call profit = (MAX (stock price - strike price, 0) - premium per share

Thus,

Long call profit = Max [0, ($123 - $125)(100)] - $500

= - $500.

Therefore, the negative sign in front indicates a loss of $500

notka56 [123]

Answer:

d. Overstate, understate, understate, zero

Explanation:

The amount of earnings overall is the same. so, in the end, there is n difference in retained earnings.

But, on accrual accounting, the note should not enter the accounting as 1,000 as time value of money exist.

At 2016 the sales revenue should be the present value of 1,000 dollars not the complete 1,000 dollars. Thus, is overstated.

Then, the interest accrued from the note are not recognized. Thus, the first year (2016) recognize revenues that should be matched with 2017 and 2018

Thus, these two subsequent years ended understated.
