tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

65%

Explanation:

Given that

Sales = $979,000

Variable manufacturing expense = $232,000

Variable selling and administrative expense = $110,650

The computation of contribution margin ratio is shown below:-

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales - Variable manufacturing expense - Variable selling and administrative expense) × 100 ÷ Sales

= ($979,000 - $232,000 - $110,650) × 100 ÷ $979,000

= ($979,000 - $342,650) × 100 ÷ $979,000

= $636,350 × 100 ÷ $979,000

= 65%

Flauer [41]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

In a competitive environment, pricing strategy is one of the strategies to ensure efficiency and profitability. But lowering of prices at the expense of deterioration in the quality of product offerings cannot be a recommended strategy.

The four competitive strategies specified by Michael Porter are namely, Cost Leadership, Differentiation, Cost Focus and Differentiation focus.

Under Cost leadership, a firm strives to offer it's products at the lowest cost and be the cost leader in an industry.

Differentiation refers to adding unique attributes and values to the products which differentiates such products from those of the competitors.

Cost focus refers to cost leadership when targeted at a particular marketing segment and similarly, differentiation focus is differentiation when applied to a specific marketing segment.

A firm cannot focus at price at the expense of quality of it's offerings. Thus, keeping prices down isn't all which matters.

grigory [225]

Answer:

So, in 2010, out of the dividends of $12000, $5000 was distributed to preferred stockholders.

Explanation:

A non cumulative preferred stock is a kind of stock that has a preference in terms of dividend payment over ordinary/common stock. This means that the dividend on the preferred stock is paid first and any remaining amount after dividend payment to this stock is distributable among common stockholders. Furthermore, in case dividends are not paid in a particular year, that year's dividends are not payable in future in case the stock is a non cumulative one. So, the dividends paid to non cumulative preferred stock in 2010 will be,

Dividend per year - Preferred stock = 10000 * 10 * 0.05 = $5000

So, in 2010, out of the dividends of $12000, $5000 was distributed to preferred stockholders.
