Park Company reports interest expense of $340,000 and income before interest expense and income taxes of $6,120,000.(1) Compute

algol13

Answer: 1. 18 times

2. Park is in better position

Explanation:

1. Times interest earned is a financial ratio that measures interest coverage. It's essentially to check if a company can pay it's debt payments and is calculated by either EBIT or EBITDA divided by the total interest expense. The higher the better and anything above 2.5 times is usually considered.

Calculating would therefore be,

= $6,120,000 /$340,000

= 18 times.

2. As mentioned in the first answer, for the Times interest earned, the higher it is, the more favourable it is. So Park Company will be considered safer and are most definitely in a better or worse position than its competitor to make interest payments if the economy turns bad. The fact that theirs is 18 means that they can pay off their interest expense 5 times more than their competitor who can only repay 12 times.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A) Does not change the money supply.

Explanation:

Demand deposits change the monetary base, because the monetary base equals currency plus demand deposits.

However, in itself, a demand deposit does not change the money supply. For the change in the money supply to occur, the bank must loan out some of the money in the deposit.

Therrell Corporation has two divisions: Bulb Division and Seed Division. The following report is for the most recent operating p

amm1812

Answer:

a. For Bulb = $183,418.92

b. For Seed = $96,759.49

c. Break even = $336,144.74

Explanation:

Sales = Bulb Division + Seed Division

= $234,000 + $156,000

= $390,000

Variable Expense = Bulb Division + Seed Division

= $60,840 + $32,760

= $93,600

Contribution margin for bulb = Sales - Variable

= $234,000 - $60,840

= $173,160

Contribution margin for Seed division = Sales - Variable

= $156,000 - $32,760

= $123,240

Total = $390,000 - $93,600

= $296,400

Division Income for bulb = contribution margin - Traceable fixed expenses

= $173,160 - $135,730

= $37,430

Division Income for seed division = contribution margin - Traceable fixed expenses

= $123,240 - $76,440

= $46,800

Total of Division income = $296,400 - $212,170

= $84,230

Common Fixed expenses = $25,980 + $17,320

= $43,300

Income = Total of Division income - Common Fixed expenses

= $84,230 - $43,300

= $40,930

Contribution margin ratio for bulb = Contribution ÷ Sales × 100

= $173,160 ÷ $234,000 × 100

= 74.00%

Contribution margin ratio for seed = Contribution ÷ Sales × 100

= $123,240 ÷ $156,000 × 100

= 79%

Total Contribution margin ratio for bulb and seed = Contribution ÷ Sales × 100

= ($173,160 + $123,240) ÷ $390,000 × 100

= $296,400 ÷ $390,000 × 100

= 76%

a and b. Division’s break-even in sales dollars = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio

For Bulb = $183,418.92

For Seed = $96,759.49

c. company’s overall break - even in sales dollars

= (212170 + 43300) ÷ 76%

= $336,144.74
