SNC is considering evaluating the payment profile of its customer base, especially focusing on customers who are chronically del

inquent in paying invoices. Super Sports Centers-a national, mall-based, upscale fitness network and a key SNC customer (accounting for 20% of SNC's overall sales)-routinely takes almost 200 days to pay its invoices. That far exceeds the 90-day average collection period for SNC's other customers. If SNC drops Super Sports Centers from its customer base, sales will decrease by $2 million. However, the cash-flow measure of days sales outstanding (DSO) will quickly improve. What would you like to do about this opportunity?

Answer:

I would decline the proposal to drop Super Sports Centers.

Explanation:

In order to be able to accept or decline dropping SSC as a customer we must first calculate the cost of being paid after 200 days.

If you analyze it from an accounting point of view, dropping SSC will decrease your operating profits by $130,000 and that might result in your firm not being able to make a profit anymore.

In my opinion, the cost analysis is not complete because in order to calculate EBIT your are simply subtracting COGS from revenue (which is correct but incomplete). When you make important business decisions, you must determine which is the least of evils. Is reducing your DSO so important that you will risk going bankrupt? How much does financing SSC costs? Since SCC takes so long to pay, you should probably record the present value of the sale (similar to a non-interest bearing note).

You must also remember that if your total sales decrease by 20%, your COGS will increase since fixed costs per unit will increase. Probably the best way to understand this is to analyze the situation like a special order sale. SNC should probably calculate their manufacturing (or retailing) costs without SSC and that way they will be able to determine the real advantage or disadvantage of having SSC as a client.

A company has a unit contribution margin of $80 and a contribution margin ratio of 50%. what is the unit selling price?
lora16 [44]

If a company has a unit contribution margin of $80 and a contribution margin ratio of 50%. Then its unit selling price is $160 therefore option (d) is the correct answer.

Contribution margin, or dollar contribution in keeping with the unit, is the selling fee in step with the unit minus the variable price in line with the unit. "Contribution" represents the portion of sales that isn't eaten up by variable prices and so contributes to the coverage of fixed fees. The contribution margin is computed because of the promoting charge per unit, minus the variable value according to the unit. Additionally known as greenback contribution per unit, the measure indicates how a specific product contributes to the general income of the business enterprise.

To calculate the unit selling price use the formula

Unit selling price = contribution margin / contribution margin ratio

Unit selling price = $80 / 50%

Unit selling price = $160

Therefore option d) $160 is the correct answer

The contribution margin ratio of a business is the same as its revenue much less all variable fees, divided by means of its sales. It represents the marginal gain of producing one more unit.

If the government wishes to increase the level of real GDP, it might reduce: 
A. Taxes
B. Transfer payments
C. The size of the b
MArishka [77]

Answer: Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

If the government wishes to increase the level of real GDP, it might reduce <u>Taxes.</u>

This is due to the fact that if government reduces the transfer payment, size of budget deficit or its purchases of goods and services then as a result the level of real GDP deceases because of lower aggregate demand for the product.

Now, if government reduces the taxes, this will increase the individual's disposable income. So, this will results in higher aggregate demand and hence, increases the level of real GDP.
