Answer:

(B) The company increases its dividend payout ratio.

Explanation:

AFN is Additional Funds needed.

For this Additional Funds needed = Expected or projected increase in assets - Expected increase in liabilities - Expected increase in retained earnings.

As with the payment of dividend the retained earnings tend to reduce, therefore with increase in dividend payout ratio there will be decrease in expected increase in retained earnings.

Which will further increase the AFN.

Therefore, the correct answer is

(B) The company increases its dividend payout ratio.

It is the year 2060, and you are talking (or perhaps telepathically communicating) with your grandchildren. "Grandparental Unit"
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The answer is: $20

Explanation:

To calculate how much money you will need in 2060 to buy an equivalent to $2 of today, we can use the current CPI and convert our money to base year dollars. Then we multiply our base year dollars by the CPI of 2060.

$2 / 2.4 CPI 2019 = $0.8333 base dollars

$0.8333 base dollars x 24 CPI 2060 = $20

This means that you will need $20 in 2060 to buy the same amount of goods that you bought with $2 in 2019.

From july 1,2018 to Dec 31,2018, Interest expense has accumulated for 6 months. Since each month the interest is 1% so For each month interest is

($11500 * 1% = $115).

For 6 months Interest expense = $115 * 6

For 6 months Interest expense = $690

General Entry:

($11500 * 1% = $115).

For 6 months Interest expense = $115 * 6

For 6 months Interest expense = $690

Interest Expense = $690

Interest Payable = $690

What is total revenue , average revenue and marginal revenue ?Explain relationship among these​
Basile [38]

Answer:

Total revenue is the total amount of income that a firm obtains from selling goods or services. Average revenue is the average amount of income that a firm obtains for each unit of product , and marginal revenue is the extra amount of revenue that the firm obtains from the sale of one additional unit of product.

These three types of revenues have several relationships, for example, if total revenue increases more than total quantity, it means that marginal revenue is high. Another relationship is between marginal revenue and average revenue: when average revenue decreases, marginal revenue increases and viceversa.

The budgeted selling price per unit is $60. Budgeted unit sales for June, July, August, and September are 8,000, 11,000, 13,000,
xz_007 [3.2K]

5. If 66,250 pounds of raw materials are needed to meet production in August, the pounds of raw materials purchased in July is <u>58,375 pounds</u>.

6. If 66,250 pounds of raw materials are needed to meet production in August, the estimated cost of raw materials purchases for July is <u>$128,425</u>.

7. In July, the total estimated cash disbursements for raw materials purchases is <u>$105,105</u>.

8. If 66,250 pounds of raw materials are needed to meet production in August, the estimated accounts payable balance at the end of July is <u>$102,740</u> ($128,425 x 80%).

9. If 66,250 pounds of raw materials are needed to meet production in August, the estimated raw materials inventory balance at the end of July is <u>6,625 pounds</u>.

10. The total estimated direct labor cost for July is <u>$276,000</u>.

11. If we assume that there is no fixed manufacturing overhead and the variable manufacturing overhead is $7 per direct labor hour, the estimated unit product cost? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Cost of raw materials per unit = $11 (5 x $2.20)

The estimated unit product cost under the above scenario is <u>$18</u> ($11 +$7).

12. If we assume that there is no fixed manufacturing overhead and the variable manufacturing overhead is $7 per direct labor hour, the estimated finished goods inventory balance at the end of July is <u>$58,500</u> (3,250 x $18).

13. If we assume that there is no fixed manufacturing overhead and the variable manufacturing overhead is $7 per direct labor hour, the estimated cost of goods sold and gross margin for July are as follows:

Estimated cost of goods sold = <u>$198,000</u> (11,000 x $18)

Gross margin = $462,000 ($660,000 - $198,000)

14. The estimated total selling and administrative expense for July is <u>$74,200</u> ($13,200 + $61,000).

15. If we assume that there is no fixed manufacturing overhead and the variable manufacturing overhead is $7 per direct labor hour, the estimated net operating income for July is <u>$387,800</u> ($462,000 - $74,200).

b. The product contains 100% awareness & 100% accessibility

c. The customer satisfaction needed 100
