Answer:

b. Italy

Explanation:

Even though this % doesn't apply to all corporations, it is still a very small number of shareholders that control corporations (and their board) on average. We can compare this situation to the American normality, where any shareholder that owns 5% or more of a large corporation is considered a major shareholder and must report himself/herself to the SEC as such.

In the US, many of the corporations would be considered closed corporations. The smaller the number of shareholders with large decision power, the less small shareholders can do.

A company with a break-even point at $900,000 in sales revenue had fixed costs of $225,000. When actual sales were $1,000,000, v

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

a. $100,000

b. 10%

c. 25%

d. $25,000

Explanation:

The MOS (Margin of Safety) means the excess sales over Break Even Point (the point of 0 profit).

Now formula is:

Margin of Safety = Actual Sales - Break Even Sales

So,

MOS = 1,000,000 - 900,000 = $100,000

This is the previous answer as a percentage of total sales, which is 1,000,000. So we have the formula and answer:

Margin of Safety Percentage = Margin of Safety / Actual Sales

So,

MOS (%) = 100,000/1,000,000 = 10%

THe contribution margin ratio is the company's sales minus variable costs expressed as a ratio/percentage. The formula is:

Contribution Margin Ratio = (Sales - Variable Costs) / Sales

So,

CM Ratio = (1,000,000 - 750,000) / 1,000,000

CM Ratio = 25%

The operating income is what a company has after it has subtracted both variable and fixed cost from its sales. The formula is:

Operating Income = Sales - Variable Costs - Fixed Costs

OI = 1,000,000 - 750,000 - 225,000 = 25000

OI = $25,000

Abnormal spoilage was 100 units and normal spoilage is 400 units. Beginning Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 5,000 units;

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: 2500

Explanation:

The ending work in progress will be calculated as the addition of the begining work in progress to the units started for the year after which we then deduct the normal spoilage, abnormal spoilage and the units completed from the period. This will be:

= 5000 + 20000 - 22000 - 400 - 100

= 2500

The ending work in progress will be 2500.
