Answer:

1. C)Unknown

2. C)Unknown

Explanation:

The company wants to disengage staff based on seniority but does not state of it is the highest ranking or lowest ranking that will go

So if we assume the two lowest ranking staff are to be let go.

From the scenario above Fred is more senior than Cheryl and Sue, so he must be 1st or 2nd.

To determine if Mike is to be terminated, he is senior to Cheryl. If Cheryl is 4th then Mike can be 3rd and will go. If Cheryl is 3rd then Mike can be 1st or 2nd and will stay. There is no way to determine Mike's rank from the data given.

To determine if Sue will go, Fred is more senior to Sue. So if Fred is 1st Sue can be 2nd and stay. However Sue can be 3rd or even 4th and still satisfy the conditions. So in this case also we cannot determine if Sue will be laid off with the data given.

Titanic Roofing Company has estimated the following amounts for its next fiscal​ year: Total fixed costs $ 840 comma 000 Sale pr
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Operating income increases by $40,000.

Explanation:

Given that,

Total fixed costs = $840,000

Sale price per unit = $60

Variable cost per unit = $30

Additional amount spend on advertising = $35,000

Sales volume would increase by 2,500 units.

Contribution margin:

= Sales - Variable costs

= $60 - $30

= $30 per unit

Increase in operating income:

= Increase in contribution margin - Increase in Fixed costs

= ($30 × 2,500 units) - $35,000

= $75,000 - $35,000

= $40,000

Compute the selling price if variable costs are ​$16 per unit. Determine the formula used to calculate the selling price.
dezoksy [38]

Answer: $40

Explanation:

Selling price can be calculated through the contribution margin equation;

Contribution margin = (Selling Price - Variable cost) / Selling Price

Contribution margin = Fixed costs/break-even point

= 660,000/1,100,000

= 60%

60% = (Selling Price - 16) / Selling Price

Selling price * 60% = Selling price - 16

16 = Selling price - (0.6 * selling price)

16 = Selling price * 40%

16/40% = Selling price

Selling price = $40

If a taxpayer does not have enough taxes withdrawn from her paychecks throughout the year to equal the total tax she is required
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$209

Explanation:

Since Mary's estimated annual income taxes are $5,424, then to determine the amount that should be withheld every two weeks, all we need to do is divide her total estimated taxes by 26 weeks = $5,424 / 26 weeks = $208.62 ≈ $209. generally you do not include cents in tax filings or payments, you need to round up or down. In this case you need to round up, even software rounds the amounts to the nearest dollar.
