Answer:

Net income under variable costing would be $429,000.

Explanation:

Under the variable costing method the most important point to understand here is that fixed cost of the previous period ( 3000 units in this case ) would not be carried over to current period. Which means that the fixed cost and cost of goods sold be less now and the profit will increase.

NET INCOME =

SALES                                   = $ 1035,000  ( 23,000 X 45 )

(-) COST OF GOODS SOLD  = ($ 391,000) ( 23000 X 17 )

 ( We have multiplied 23,000 units by 17 because now those fixed cost of $5 are not carried forward to this period)

GROSS CONTRIBUTION MARGIN  = $1035,000 - $391,000

                                                          = $644,000

(-)VARIABLE SELLING AND ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES = ($69,000)

 ( $115,000 X 60% )

CONTRIBUTION MARGIN = $644,000 - $69,000

                                           = $575,000

(LESS) FIXED COSTS          = ($146,000)   [ $100,000 + $46,000 ]

1) MANUFACTURING COST = 20,000 X $5

                                              = $100,000

2) SELLING AND ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES = $115,000 X 40%

                                                                                = $46,000

INCOME  = $575,000 - $146,000

                = $429,000

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Explanation:

I possess good leadership qualities that distinguish me from other potential people. I also strong position in leading groups. In contact I'm fine. I'm nice. I convey my thoughts but also hear everything they have and say quite well in front of others. I am now a logical thinking instructor and make rational and factual decisions. I am supermotard and face a difficult problem while other potential employees may try to avoid problems or challenges and run away from them.

Its business I am employed for is better for me since I could be a great asset for the business which can successfully do any job it could do. For every job or job that my boss provides to me, I'd try my support. I'm timely but good for individuals who are very important to influence and manage. Let us say that I'll be a salesperson so I can influence customers or their selection of purchase by my social skills. I'd use my abilities and close the boss's sales contract.

Which of the following formulas is used to compute the accounting rate of return?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return is determined to take the efficient business decision related to the capital budgeting and it tell us whether to accept the proposal or not. The following is the formula:

Accounting rate of return = (Average Income ÷ Initial Investment)

For example:

Net profit for 3 years are as follows:

2012 - 13 = $50 million

2013-14 = $100 million

2014-15 = $150 million

Initial investment = $200

Average profit = ($50 + $100 + $150) ÷ 3

                        = $100

Accounting rate of return = (Average Income ÷ Initial Investment)

                                          = $100 ÷ $200

                                          = 0.5 or 50%
