IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Inventory turnover

Year 3     6.95 times

Year 2     4.73 times

Year 1      4.23 times

Days Sales In Inventory

Year 3     55.22 days

Year 2     75.07 days

Year 1      86.28 days

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is the ratio that how many time a business has sold or replaced the inventory during a given period. A business is considered more profitable if it has high inventory turnover.

According to given data

                                            Year 3          Year 2           Year 1

Merchandise inventory      97,400        87,750           92,500

Cost of goods sold            $643,825    $426,650     $391,300

Inventory turnover = Cost of Goods Sold  / Average Inventory value

Inventory turnover= Cost of Goods Sold / [ ( Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory ) / 2 ]

Year 3

Inventory Turnover = $643,825 / [ ( 97400 + 87750 ) / 2 ] = 6.95

Year 2

Inventory Turnover = $426,650 / [ ( 87750 + 92500 ) / 2 ] = 4.73

Year 1

Inventory Turnover = $391,300 / 92500 = 4.23

As there will be no Beginning inventory so average inventory will be same as the closing inventory is the same as the Closing Inventory.

Days Sales In Inventory = 365 x Ending Inventory / Cost of Goods Sold

Year 3

Days Sales In Inventory = 365 x 97,400 / $643,825 = 55.22 days

Year 2

Days Sales In Inventory = 365 x 87,750 / $426,650 = 75.07 days

Year 1

Days Sales In Inventory = 365 x 92,500 / $391,300 = 86.28 days

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Walton Company

Income Statement

                                   Actual                Budgeted            Variances

Sales                          510,400                 $ 519,000              8,600 U

Variable product costs    183400             188,000                 4,600 F        

Variable selling expense   48100              46,000                  2,100 U

Other variable expenses  5100                  3,300                  1,800 U

Contribution Margin      273,800              281,700              7,900 unfav

Fixed product costs   15460                       15,700                  240 F

Fixed selling expense   22920                   23,400                 480 F

Operating Income      235420                    242,600          7,180  unfav

Other fixed expenses   1460                       1,300                 160 U

Interest expense            710                          800                   90 F      

Net income                 233,250                  240,500           7,250 unfav

We calculate the actual amounts from the budgeted amount by adding the variances when they are unfavorable and subtracting them when they are favorable . But in case of sales this is reversed. The actual sales are calculated by   subtracting unfavorable variance from budgeted sales.

The fav amounts are subtracted from the unfav amounts to get the results .

8,600 u + ( 4,600)F + 2,100 U +1,800= 7,900 unfav

vekshin1

Answer:

The increase in gross profit is  $12,374.93

Explanation:

The increase in sales due to purchasing this new equipment is 25% of current sales figure of $750,000

increase in sales=$750,000*25%=$187,500

variable cost on the increase in sales is 55%=$187500 *55%=$103,125

The annual depreciation charge on the new equipment=cost of the new equipment-salvage value/useful life

cost of the new equipment is $357,500.37

salvage value is $0

useful life of the new equipment is 5 years

annual depreciation charge=($357,500.37-$0)/5=$ 71,500.07  

Increase/(decrease) in annual gross profit=$187,000-$103,125-$ 71,500.07  =$12,374.93
