Answer:
Option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost
= $3,000 - $2,000
= $1,000
A.
(1)
Break even in marketing plan = 400
(2) Break-even in dollars:
= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan
= 400 × 3,000
= 1,200,000
(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars
= 1,500,000 - 1,200,000
= 300,000
= 20%
B.
(1) Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost
= $4,000 - $2,000
= $2,000
Break even in marketing plan = 200
(2) Break-even in dollars:
= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan
= 200 × 4,000
= 800,000
(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars
= 1,500,000 - 800,000
= 700,000
= 47%
Therefore, option (a) would achieve the margin of safety ratio more than 45%.
Answer: 1.41
Explanation:
Given that,
Debt outstanding = $300,000
interest rate = 8% annually
annual sales = $1.5 million
average tax rate = 40%
net profit margin on sales = 4%
interest amount = 300,000 × 0.08
= $24,000
net profit = 4% of 1.5 million
= $6,000
Profit before tax =
= $10,000
earning before interest and tax = profit before tax + interest
= $10,000 + $24,000
= $34,000
TIE ratio =
=
= 1.41
