Kokomochi is considering the launch of an advertising campaign for its latest dessert​ product, the Mini Mochi Munch. Kokomochi

plans to spend $ 4.9 million on​ TV, radio, and print advertising this year for the campaign. The ads are expected to boost sales of the Mini Mochi Munch by $ 8.8 million this year and $ 6.8 million next year. In​ addition, the company expects that new consumers who try the Mini Mochi Munch will be more likely to try​ Kokomochi's other products. As a​ result, sales of other products are expected to rise by $ 1.7 million each year. ​Kokomochi's gross profit margin for the Mini Mochi Munch is 38 %​, and its gross profit margin averages 23 % for all other products. The​ company's marginal corporate tax rate is 35 % both this year and next year. What are the incremental earnings associated with the advertising​ campaign?

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Explanation:

Note that the amount are in millions(dollar).

Year one: the sales of Mini Mochi Munch = $ 8.8 million = 8.8, sales of other products = $ 1.7 million. Hence, the gross profit = (8.8 × 38%) + (8.8 × 23%) = 5.368.

The selling, general and administrative expenses = 4.9 and the depreciation is zero.

Then, the EBIT = the gross profit -selling, general and administrative expenses - Depreciation.

EBIT = 5.368 - 4.9 - 0 = 0.468.

Less income tax at 38% = 0.17784.

incremental earnings= EBIT - Less income tax at 38%.

incremental earnings = 0.468 - 0.17784.

Year two: the sales of Mini Mochi Munch = $ 6.8 million = 6.8, sales of other products = $ 1.7 million. Hence, the gross profit = (6.8 × 38%) + (6.8 × 23%) = 4.148.

The selling, general and administrative expenses = 0, and the depreciation is zero(0).

Then, the EBIT = the gross profit -selling, general and administrative expenses - Depreciation.

EBIT = 4.148 - 4.9 - 0 = −0.752.

Less income tax at 38% = −0.28576.

incremental earnings= EBIT - Less income tax at 38%.

incremental earnings = −0.752 - −0.28576 = −1.03776.

Which of the following mechanisms would be most likely to help motivate managers to act in the best interests of shareholders?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is d) Increase the proportion of executive compensation that comes from stock options and reduce the proportion that is paid as cash salaries.

Explanation:

Option D. represents two situations that perfectly describe the interest that the shareholders pursue: the maximization of the profits of the company where they have their resources invested.

The shareholder, on the other hand, is also an investor, since he contributes capital with a view to obtaining a dividend.

Its investment is said to be in equities, given that there is no contract through which the shareholder will receive fixed fees in return for his investment. Their remuneration is through two ways:

  1. Dividend
  2. Increase in the price of the company. This is produced by its good progress and its ability to generate future benefits, as well as by the increase in assets through past benefits.

cluponka [151]

Answer: Analogy

Explanation:

The method of forecasting that this example illustrate is analogy. Forecast by analogy refers to the forecasting method which simply assumes that two different kinds of situations have identical models and therefore share the same model of behaviour.

This can be infered from the situations that once the per capita GDP is known for the country, the per capita demand for the toys can be estimated.
