<span>Decrease by $57,400 per month. Looks look at the cash flow for continuing to produce product a and discontinuing product a. Continuing to produce Income = 15900 * $29 = $461,100 Variable Expenses = 15900 * 23 = $365,700 Fixed overhead = $109,000 Total cash flow = $461,100 - $365,700 - $109,000 = -$13,600 So the Lusk company is losing $13,600 per month while producing product a. Let's see what happens if they stop producing it. Income = $0 Variable Expenses = $0 Fixed overhead = $71,000 Total cash flow = $0 - $71,000 = -$71,000 So if they stop producing it, their fixed overhead decreases, but is still at $71,000 per month, for a total loss per month of $71,000. The conclusion is to either lose $13,600 per month, or $71,000 per month. So if they stop production of product a, their loss per month will increase by $57,400.</span>

Balance sheet and income statement data indicate the following:
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The correct option is d. 5.5.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not properly arranged. It is therefore rearranged before answering the question as follows:

Balance sheet and income statement data indicate the following:

Bonds payable, 10% (due in two years)                              $842,000

Preferred 5% stock, $100 par (no change during year)       220,000

Common stock, $50 par (no change during year)             1,672,000

Income before income tax for year                                       376,000

Income tax for year                                                                  89,000

Common dividends paid                                                         83,600

Preferred dividends paid                                                          11,000

Based on the data presented, what is the times interest earned ratio (rounded to one decimal place)?

Oa. 7.9

Ob. 4.5

Oc. 3.5

Od. 5.5

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

The times interest earned ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Times interest earned ratio = EBIT / Interest expenses ................ (1)

Where;

Interest expenses = Bonds payable * 10% = $842,000 * 10% = $84,200

EBIT = Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for year + Interest expenses = $376,000 + $84,200 = $460,200

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Times interest earned ratio = $460,200 / $84,200 = 5.46555819477435

Rounded to one decimal place, we have:

Times interest earned ratio = 5.5

Therefore, the correct option is d. 5.5.

frutty [35]

<u>Answer: </u>

Out of the following positions, the position of the factory supervisor would have a salary or wage that is classified as a factory overhead cost by a baking company.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • For a baking factory, professionals like a baker, a salesman, or the president of the company are mandatory to have.

  • If such a need is not felt anymore, the salary of the factory supervisor would be considered as an overhead cost by the company.

Find the present value of the following stream of cash flows assuming that the firms opportuiny costs is 9 percent. 1-5 years 10
Yanka [14]

Answer:

   ∑( Cash flow × PVF) = 79,347

Explanation:

Given:

Opportunity cost = 9%

Cash flow for 1-5 years = 10,000

Cash flow for 6-10 years = 16,000

Now,

Present value factor (PVF) = \frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{(1 + 0.09)^n}}

here, n is the year

For year 1 to  5

Year             Cash flow             PVF             Cash flow × PVF

1                     10000             0.9174             9174

2                     10000             0.8417             8417

3                      10000             0.7722             7722

4                      10000             0.7084             7084

5                      10000             0.6499             6499

for years 6 to 10

Year             Cash flow             PVF             Cash flow × PVF

6                      16000              0.5963             9540.8

7                      16000              0.547             8752

8                      16000              0.5019             8030.4

9                      16000             0.4604             7366.4

10                      16000             0.4224             6758.4

========================================================

                                          ∑( Cash flow × PVF) = 79,347

========================================================

taking the PVF to 5 decimal places will make 79,347 ≈ 79,348

Flint, Inc. is trying to establish the standard labor cost of a typical oil change. The following data have been collected from
Julli [10]

Answer:

1. 1.875 hours

2. $20.25

3. $37.97

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. For Standard direct labor hours per oil change, it is

= (Actual time spent on the oil change) +  (Setup and downtime + Cleanup and rest periods) × Actual time spent on the oil change  

= 1.25 hours + (22% + 28%) × 1.25 hours

= 1.25 hours + 0.625 hours

= 1.875 hours

2. Standard direct labor hourly rate, it is

= (Hourly wage rate) + (Payroll taxes + Fringe Benefits) × hourly wage rate

= $15 + (10% + 25%) × $15

= $15 + $5.25

= $20.25

3. And, the standard direct labor cost per change is

= Standard direct labor hours per oil change × Standard direct labor hourly rate

= 1.875 hours × $20.25

= $37.97

We simply applied the above formulas for each one part
