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

Lloyd Inc. had sales of $200,000, a net income of //415,000, and the following balance sheet:
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The firm's new quick ratio is  2.9

Explanation:

The current ratio is calculated as  

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

2.5 times = (Cash + receivables + Inventories ) / (Accounts payable + Other current liabilities)

2.5 = ($10,000 + $50,000 + Inventories) / $50,000

$60,000 + inventories = $125,000

Inventories = $65,000

Therefore, $85,000 worth of inventories were sold off.

If the funds generated are used to reduce the common equity that is by repurchasing the equity at book value.

Hence, the common equity amounts to $115,000

Calculating the ROE before the inventory is sold off:

ROE = Net income / Stockholder's equity

= $15,000 / $200,000

= 0.075 or 7.5%

Calculating the ROE after selling off the inventory:

ROE = $15,000 / $115,000

= 0.13 or 13%

The firm's new quick ratio is

Quick ratio = (Current assets - Inventories) / Current liabilities

= ($210,000 - $65,000) / $50,000

= 2.9

= [ 1 - (1.12)-4 ] / 0.12 = 3.03734935

Minimum annual cash flow needed = Investment / PVIFA = 403,014 / 3.03734935

A company builds a new plant and finances its construction by issuing stock. Which ratio is least likely to be affected, all els
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a. Current ratio

Explanation:

Current Ratio is the least likely to be affected

The  Current Ratio is given as

Current Ratio = [ Current assets ] ÷ [ Current liabilities  ]

Now,

Building a new plant is a fixed asset for the company.

Thus, It will add to the Fixed assets

Since,

The Formula for current ratio is independent of the fixed assets

Therefore,

It will be least affected.

While,

Debt to equity ratio = [ Debt ] ÷ [ Equity ]

Debt to asset ratio= [ Total Debt ] ÷ [ Total Assets ]

Net fixed assets to total assets = [ Net fixed assets ] ÷ [ Total assets ]

in all the above relations, fixed asset will change the value of the total assets.

Hence,

They all will be affected
