A recurring activity is one that happens on a regular basis; it occurs repeatedly. The frequency of occurence could take different forms, some are ongoing while others are intermittent with a whole range of combinations. Although all recurring task occurs again and again, repetition could take the form of minutes, days, or even seconds. The perpetuity of the cycle depends on the algorithms put into it. These tasks repeat themselves automatically over a specified period of time and may be scheduled as such.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The average fixed cost is $2.4.

Explanation:

Vipsana's Gyros House sells gyros.

The cost of ingredients to make a gyro is $2.00.

Vipsana pays her employees $60 per day.

She also incurs a fixed cost of $120 per day.

The cost incurred on ingredients and workers is a variable cost.

The total fixed is thus $120.

The average fixed cost for 50 gyros

= $\frac{TFC}{Q}$

= $\frac{120}{50}$

= $2.4

Answer: d. provide disclosure in the footnotes to the financial statements.

Explanation:

A contingent liability is an obligation that a company might owe in future depending on the outcome of an event such as a law suit.

To record a contingent liability in the books, two conditions must be satisfied;

Loss must be probable
Amount must be estimable

If these two conditions are not satisfied then the contingent liability may simply be disclosed as a footnote in the financial statement. The amount here is not estimable so can be disclosed as a footnote.

Today, most salespeople are well-educated, well-trained professionals who work to build and maintain long-term customer relation

stepladder [879]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

The above is false because sales people are supposed to build and maintain long term relationships with their customers by listening to and assessing their needs and not teaching their customers. Sales people create a concerted effort towards solving those needs experienced by their customers.

A salesperson represent the image of the company he or she is selling for, hence must be professional and well trained because the company gets profit through his interactions with the customers. This means that before the company gets profit, customers must be satisfied because these salespeople act as critical link between the company and its customers.

Determine the market potential for a product that has 20 million prospective buyers who purchase an average of 2 per year and pr

Gnoma [55]

4,000,000 units should be sold a company

Explanation:

Calculating the sales in units:

It has been given that the toal market demand is $20 million, average quantity purchased by buyer per year is 2 units, price average is $50, and the desired share of the market is 10%.

$Q=n * q * p$

Where:

Q = Total market demand,

N = number of buyers in the market, q = average quantity purchased by the buyer per year,

P = price of average unit

$$\mathrm{Q}=20,000,000$ buyers $* 2$ per unit per buyer $* \$ 50$ per unit$

= $2,000,000,000

Market share = $(20,000,000 \text { buyers } * 2 \text { units per buyer }) * 0.1$

= 4,000,000 units

Hence, the company should sell 4 million units to achieve 10 percent market share.

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year. 1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage. 2. Ma

marishachu [46]

Answer:

1-a. Total Contribution margin is $210,000 and Net operating income is $28,000.

1-b. Degree of Operating Leverage = 7.50

2-a. The expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Expected amount of Net Operating Income is $70,000.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 15,000 games last year at a selling price of $20 per game. Fixed costs associated with the game total $182,000 per year, and variable costs are $6 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable costs consist mostly of payments to this contractor.

Required:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

2. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption:

a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

b. What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

The contribution format income statement for the game last year can be prepared as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc.

Contribution Income Statement

For Last Year

Details Total ($) Per Unit ($)

Sales 300,000 20

Variable cost (90,000) (6)

Contribution margin 210,000 14

Fixed expense (182,000)

Net operating income  28,000 

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Operating Income = $210,000 / $28,000 = 7.50

2-a. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

Since:

Degree of Operating Leverage = Percentage change in Operating Income / Percentage change in Sales

Substituting the relevant values, we have:

7.50 = Percentage change in Operating Income / 20%

Percentage change in Operating Income = 7.5 * 20% = 150%

Therefore, the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

This can be calculated as follows:

Change in Net Operating Income = 150% * $28,000 = $42,000

Expected amount of Net Operating Income = Current Net Operating Income + Change in Net Operating Income = $28,000 + $42,000 = $70,000
