Expenses, such as depreciation on buildings are also known as variable expenses. t or f?

1 answer:

8 0

The statement “Expenses, such as depreciation on buildings are also known as variable expenses.”, is false, due to the fact that depreciation is a fixed cost since throughout its useful life as an asset, it reoccurs in the same amount per period, and thus, depreciation cannot be considered a variable cost. Nevertheless, as with all things, there is an exception. The depreciation will be sustained in a pattern that is more consistent with a variable expense, only if a business recruits a usage-based depreciation methodology.

To add, the corporate expense that alters with the company’s production output is called the variable cost.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

(a) Earnings per share for 2022 and 2021 for Cheyenne are as follows:

Earnings per share for 2002 = $1.21

Earnings per share for 2001 = $1.10

(b) The current ratio and debt to assets ratio for each year are as follows:

Current ratio for 2002 = 2.40

Current ratio for 2001 = 1.25

Debt to assets ratio for 2002 = 29%

Debt to assets ratio for 2001 = 41%

(c) Free cash flow for each year are as follows:

Free cash flow for 2002 = $63,000

Free cash flow for 2001 = $44,000

Explanation:

(a) Compute earnings per share for 2022 and 2021 for Cheyenne. (Round Earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.78.)

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Earnings per share = (Net income - Preferred dividends) / Average shares outstanding ..................... (1)

Where;

Average common shares outstanding = (Common shares outstanding at beginning of year + Common shares outstanding at end of year) / 2

Using equation (1), we have:

Earnings per share for 2002 = (81,700 - 9,705) / ((42,000 + 77,000) / 2) = $1.21

Earnings per share for 2001 = (51,615 - 9,705) / ((31,700 + 44,500) / 2) = $1.10

(b) Compute the current ratio and debt to assets ratio for each year. (Round ratio answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and percentage answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 15%.)

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities ................... (2)

Debt to assets ratio = (Total liabilities / Total assets) * 100 .............. (3)

Using equation (2), we have:

Current ratio for 2002 = 56,880 / 23,700 = 2.40

Current ratio for 2001 = 39,625 / 31,700 = 1.25

Using equation (3), we have:

Debt to assets ratio for 2002 = (70,180 / 242,000) * 100 = 29%

Debt to assets ratio for 2001 = (84,870 / 207,000) * 100 = 41%

(c) Compute free cash flow for each year.

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Free cash flow = Net cash provided by operating activities - Expenditures on property, plant, and equipment .................(4)

Using equation (4), we have:

Free cash flow for 2002 = $91,700 - $28,700 = $63,000

Free cash flow for 2001 = $57,700 - $13,700 = $44,000
