5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses
gogolik [260]

Question Completion:

Due to erratic sales of its sole product - a high capacity battery for laptop computers - PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulties for some time.  The contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given as follows:

Sales (19,500 units at $30 per unit) $585,000

Variable expenses                              409,500

Contribution margin                             175,500

Fixed expenses                                    180,000

Net operating margin                           ($4,500)

Answer:

PEM, Inc.

a1) New CM ratio = 40%

a2) Break-even point in unit sales and dollars sales

i) Break-even point in unit sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution per unit

= $237,000/$12

= 19,750 units

ii) Break-even point in dollars sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution margin ratio

= $237,000/0.4

= $592,500

b. Contribution format income statements, based on sales of 20,800 units:

                                                             Without                With

                                                         Automation         Automation

Sales (20,800 units at $30 per unit) $624,000    $624,000 (20,800 * $30)

Variable expenses (20,800 at $21)     436,800       374,400 (20,800 * $18)

Contribution margin (20,800 * $9)      187,200       249,600 (20,800 * $12)

Fixed expenses                                    180,000       237,000

Net operating margin                            $7,200       $12,600

c) I would recommend that the company should automate its operations.  It will generate more net operating margin, equal to $5,400 ($12,600 - $7,200), when it automates than when it does not, assuming that it expects to sell 20,800 units.  

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable expenses reduction = $3 per unit

Old variable expenses per unit = $21 ($409,500/19,500)

New variable expenses per unit = $18 ($21 - $3)

New variable expenses = $351,000 ($18 * 19,500)

New Contribution Margin per unit = $12 ($30 - $18)

New Contribution margin ratio = $12/$30 * 100 = 0.4 or 40%

Old Fixed Expenses = $180,000

New Fixed Expenses = $237,000 ($180,000 + $57,000)

The mass of the box is 5kg (the mass center is located in the middle of the box), the mass of a lower arm plus a hand is 1.5 kg
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Force of Compression= 1,315.322 N

Shear Force = 0 N

Explanation:

Given

Mass of Box = 5kg

Mass of lower arm = 1.5kg

Mass of upper arm = 2kg

Mass of Torso = 27kg

Calculating the weight of the parameters above

Weight of Box = Wbox = 5kg * 10N/kg = 50N

Weight of Lower arm = Wlow = 1.5 * 10 = 15N

Weight of Upper arm = Wup = 2 * 10 = 20N

Weight of Torso = Wtor = 27 * 10 = 270N

The force on the muscle is calculated by the following:

Fmus= Wbox* a/5 + Wlow* b/5 + Wup*c/5 where a,b, and c represents the corresponding lengths of each weights

Calculating a,b and c (See attachment) where angles are 30° and 20°

a = (sin 30) * 14.2 + (cos 20) * 14.5

a = 7.1 + 13.6 = 20.7 in.

b = 13.6 + (7.1/2) = 17.2 in.

c = (14.5/2) cos 20 = 6.8 in

Fmus= 50 * 20.7/5+ 15* 2 * 17.2/5+ 20* 2 *6.8/5 = 364.3N

.... * 2.54 inch

Fmus = 364.3 * 2.54 = 925.322N

Force of compression is calculated as

Fcomp= Fmus + Wtor + Wbox+ 2* Wlow+ 2* Wup

Fcom = 925.322 + 270 + 50 + 2 * 15 + 2 * 20

Fcomp = 1,315.322 N

Fshear = 0 N because no force perpendicular to L5/S1

Kim’s flowers decided to borrow $26,000 from the bank and use the proceeds to purchase a new delivery vehicle. How should they c
Neko [114]

Based on the fact that Kim's flowers borrowed the money and used it to buy a new delivery vehicle, this business activity should be categorized as both a financing activity and an investing activity.

<h3>What should they classify this business activity as?</h3>

Because Kim's Flowers got the money as a loan, it would be recorded as an inflow for financial activities.

They then used it to purchase a delivery vehicle which is an investment and a capital asset so this will count as an investment activity.
