Answer:
$24,000
Explanation:
Product A Product B Product C
sales 70,000 97000
Variable cost 37000 51000
Contribution margin 33000 46000
Avoidable cost 10,000 20000
Unavoidable cost 7000 12000 9400
Operating income 16000 14000
Total operating income if product C is dropped is (16000+14000 +3400-9400)
=$24000
Please note that Giant company with still incur the unavoidable cost even if the product is dropped. This is assumed to be a portion of the fixed overhead expenses allocated to the product in the course of normal operation.However , the loss made of 3400 will be avoided as well
Answer: $6.2
Explanation: Contribution margin is the amount of revenue left after paying for the variable cost, it can be formulated as follows :-
contribution = sales - variable cost
In case of Limeade:-
sale price = $22.10
Variable cost = $15.90
so, putting the values into equation we get :-
contribution per foot = $22.10 - $15.9 = $6.2
Answer:
B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%
Explanation:
Here are the options :
A; it offers an expected excess return of .2%A; it offers an expected excess return of 2.2%B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%B; it offers an expected return of 2.4%
to determine which stock is the better buy, we have to calculate the expected return of the stocks using CAPM
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
Stock A = 5% + 1.2(9% - 5%) = 9.8%
Stock B = 5% + 1.8(9% - 5%) = 12.20%
The next step is to determine the excess return
stated expected return - calculated expected return = excess return
Stock A's excess return = 10% - 9.8% - 0.2%
Stock B's excess return = 14 - 12.20 = 1.8%
Security B would be considered because it has a higher excess return

Explanation:
Cost index in dollar - value LIFO method is used to determine the change in prices since the beginning of he base year by comparing the year end inventory to the base layer cost.
The extended cost of the ending inventory at the most recent price is divided by the cost of the ending inventory at the base year price.
Workings
Cost in term of base layer = $50,000
Cost in term of the layer layer $100,000
Cost index = 100000/50000 = 2
