Answer:

Both projects fall within the acceptable payback period, so, both projects can be accepted.

Explanation:

Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flows.

Pay back period For project A:

Amount invested in the project = −$ 62,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = −$ 62,000 + 7,100 = $-54,900

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-54,900 + 9,800 = $-45,100

Amount recovered in year 3 = $-45,100 + 28,700 = $-16,400

Amount recovered in year 4 = $-16,400 + 45,900 = $29,500

The amount is recovered In 3 years + 16400 / 45900 = 3.36 years

Cash payback period for project B:

Amount invested in the project = −$ 26,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = −$ 26,000 + 15,600 = $-10,400

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-10,400 + 8,400 = $-2000

Amount recovered in year 3 = $-2000 + 1,900 = $-100

Amount recovered in year 4 = $-100 + 1,100 = $1000

The amount invested is recovered In 3 years + 100/1,100 = 3.09 years.

Both projects fall within the acceptable payback period, so, both projects can be accepted.

Perfect Clean, Inc. provides housekeeping services. The following financial data have been provided.
ioda

Answer:

A) $38,650; 48.31%

Explanation:

The computation of the contribution margin and the contribution margin ratio is shown below:

Contribution margin = Service Revenue - Cleaning Supplies Used - wages expense

= $80,000 - $22,000 - $19,350

= $38,650

The variable cost is Cleaning Supplies Used + wages expense

And, the contribution margin ratio equals to

= (Contribution margin ÷ sales) × 100

= ($38,650 ÷ $80,000)  × 100

= 48.31%
