Yard Tools manufactures lawnmowers, weed-trimmers, and chainsaws. Its sales mix and unit contribution margin are as follows. Sal

Damm [24]

Answer:

Total Break even sales = 154,000 units

Lawnmowers ($154,000 × 20%) = 30,800 Units

Weed-trimmers ($154,000 × 50%) = 77,000 units

Chainsaws ($154,000 × 30%) = 46,200 Units

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question, the computation is shown below:

Weighted contribution margin = Contribution margin × Sales mix

= (0.2 × 30) + (0.5 × $21) + (0.3 × $39)

= $28.2

Now, Total break even sales = Fixed cost ÷ Weighted contribution margin

= $4,342,800 ÷ $28.2

= 154,000 units

So classifications are as follows

Lawnmowers ($154,000 × 20%) = 30,800 Units

Weed-trimmers ($154,000 × 50%) = 77,000 units

Chainsaws ($154,000 × 30%) = 46,200 Units

We simply multiplied the total break even sales with each sales mix

Smith Company gives the following information on the financial statements: Net Income $50,000 Preferred Dividends 8,000 Average

ch4aika [34]

Answer: The rate of return on common stockholder’s equity is 23%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Net Income = $50,000

Preferred Dividends = 8,000

Average Common Stockholder’s Equity = 180,000

Average number of Common Shares Outstanding = 250,000 shares

Market Price = $2 per share

Therefore,

Return on equity = $\frac{Net\ income - Preferred\ Dividends}{stockholder\ equity}$

= $\frac{50000 - 8000}{180000}$

= 23%
