Answer:

C. increase by about 6 percent.

Explanation:

Since,

\text{Contribution margin ratio}=\frac{\text{Sales-Variable expenses}}{\text{Sales}}

Sales = $ 120,

Original expenses = $ 65

Thus, contribution margin ratio = \frac{120-65}{120}=\frac{55}{120}=0.4583\approx 0.46

New expenses = $ 58,

Thus, contribution margin ratio = \frac{120-58}{120} = \frac{62}{120}=0.5166\approx 0.52

∵ 52 - 46 = 6,

Hence, the CMR is increased by 6%.

OPTION C is correct.

Exercise 13-17 Swifty Company has been operating for several years, and on December 31, 2017, presented the following balance sh
mixer [17]

Answer:

(a) Current ratio = 2.746

(b) Acid-test ratio = 1.423

(c) Debt to assets ratio = 47.48%  

(d) Return on assets = 6.15%

Explanation:

For Balance Sheet, pleased see attached file.

Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liabilities

Current Ratio = 212,800 / 77,500

Current Ratio = 2.746

Acid-Test Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventories) / Current Liabilities

Acid-Test Ratio = (212,800 – 102,500) / 77,500

Acid-Test Ratio = 1.423

Debt to Asset ratio = (Total Liabilities / Total Assets)*100

Debt to Asset ratio = (205,500 / 432,800)*100

Debt to Asset ratio = 47.48%

ROA = (Net Income / Total Assets)*100

ROA = (26,600 / 432,800)*100

ROA = 6.15%

The Current Ratio is a liquidity measure that shows the ratio between current asset and current liabilities. It tells how many dollars of the current asset are per dollar of current debts, that gives an idea of the company`s ability to perform its debts.    

The Quick Ratio is also a liquidity indicator, but using its most liquid assets, to pay its current liabilities at maturity. The inventory, although it is a current asset, is not considered, since it cannot be converted into cash in a very short term.

The difference between the Quick Ratio and the Current Ratio, implies that while both are measures of the company's ability to pay its debts, the quick ratio also tells how much the company depends on its inventory to get that objective.

The Debt to Assets ratio is a financial ratio that shows how much of a company assets is owed to its creditors.  

ROA is a financial indicator that gives an idea as to how efficient a company's management is at using its assets to generate earnings, by determining how profitable a company is relative to its total assets.
