Answer:
1.37
Explanation:
Given that
Operating income = $45,900
Variable expenses = 10%
Fixed expenses = $17,100
The calculation of operating income is shown below:-
Contribution margin = Operating income + Fixed expenses
= $45,900 + $17,100
= $63,000
So, Operating leverage = Contribution margin ÷ Operating income
= $63,000 ÷ $45,900
= 1.37

Answer:
Differential cost= $9.25
Differential revenue= $16
Explanation:
As the name suggest, differential cost is the difference between the costs of two alternative options. Now in this question, Patridge Co. has two products, PJ AND PD, <em>one of which (i.e PD) can be produced by further processing an already produced product (i.e PJ). But for the production of product D, Patridge Co. would have to incur additional cost of $9.25 per pound. </em>
The formula for differential cost is as follows;
Differential cost= total cost of alternative J - total cost of alternative D
Differential cost= $15.75 - ($15.75+$9.25)
Differential cost= $9.25
Differential revenue is similarly the difference between the revenue generated by two alternatives. In this question product J sells for $21 whereas product D sells for $37 so the differential revenue would be as follows:
Differential revenue = revenue of alternative D - revenue of alternative J
Differential revenue= $37 - $21
Differential revenue= $16
Answer:
12%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the market is shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
11.1% = 5.55% + 0.86 × (Market rate of return - 5.55%)
So, the market rate of return is
= (11.1% - 5.55%) ÷ 0.86 + 5.55%
= 12%
Also , The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium
