Scene: A savvy investor has a mix of stocks and bonds in their investment portfolio. Why would it be a good idea to mix stocks a

Komok [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't now, unless you are very wealthy. Interest rates are very low and you would have to go into the junk bond market to get any kind of decent return. But Junk Bonds are or can be very unstable and you get a high return for a very chancy situation.

I think I know what the question wants you to understand. You need something that will provide with income. You just don't want to deal with bonds. There are stocks around that pay dividends; they are very conservative and if they go down, that will be the least of your problems.

You can then devote your resources to capital gains or pure stocks: no interest payments, but the stock itself goes up. There is a whole different tax system for capital gains.

You should also get some gold or silver as insurance.

Since you have asked about stocks and bonds, I have not said anything about cryptos. That's an option, but you have to be very knowledgeable because those things can be an investment nightmare.

Exercise 6-18 Break-Even and Target Profit Analysis; Margin of Safety; CM Ratio [LO6-1, LO6-3, LO6-5, LO6-6, LO6-7]Menlo Company

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= $640,000 ($40)

Variable expenses= 448,000 (28)

Contribution margin= 192,000 ($12)

Fixed expenses= (145,200)

Net operating income=$46,800

1) To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 145,200/(40-28)

Break-even point in units= 12,100 units

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 145,200/ (12/40)

Break-even point (dollars)= $484,000

<u>2) The break-even point is the number of units to sell to reach a net profit of cero. Therefore, the contribution margin must be equal to the fixed costs.</u>

Contribution margin= 145,200

3) profit= $75,600

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 220,800/12

Break-even point in units= 18,400 units

Sales= 18,400*40= 736,000

Total variable costs= 18,400*28= (515,200)

Contribution margin= 220,800

Fixed costs= 145,200

Net profit= 75,600

4) The margin of safety:

Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= 640,000 - 484,000= $156,000

Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level

Margin of safety ratio= 156,000/640,000

Margin of safety ratio= 0.244= 24.4%

5) Contribution margin ratio= 12/40= 0.3

Net increase= 96,000*0.3= $28,800

Candlewood LLC started business on September 1, and it adopted a calendar tax year. During the year, Candlewood incurred $6,500

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

deduction for organizational expenses = $5,000

Explanation:

Since the total startup costs are over $50,000 then the company's deduction will be lower. Generally speaking, a company can deduct up to $5,000 in organizational an startup costs ($5,000 each). But if the costs are over $50,000, then your deduction will be reduced by $1 for each dollar over that threshold.

In this case, organizational costs were $9,500, so they can deduct $5,000 during the first year and $4,500 will be amortized over the next 15 years. Startup costs are $54,500, which means that they can only deduct $5,000 - ($54,500 - $50,000) = $500 during the first year. The remaining $54,000 must be amortized over a 15 year period. Total deduction during the first year = $5,000 + $500 = $5,500
