If sales volume increases and all other factors remain constant, then the Margin of safety will increase
Explanation:
The margin for safety (MOS) is described as an overall excess of current or expected revenue, expressed either in terms of currency or in units, or as a percentage of total revenues.
One of the main ways to increase the safety margin is through increasing the gross value per unit (if business conditions are favourable) and by reducing the variable cost per unit of the good. This can be accomplished by rising selling costs.
Answer:
Devalue its currency
Explanation:
Exchange Rate is the conversion rate of domestic & foreign currency.
Eg $1 = _ € .
Devaluation means deliberate fall in value of domestic currency in terms of foreign currency (increase in foreign exchange rate) , under fixed exchange rate by government.
Eg : $1 = 5€ - change to - $1 = 7€ . This implies dollar can purchase less amount of euro , and has depreciated.
However , this would also lead to reduce the cost of its exports in foreign (here European market) , because US $ has become cheaper in terms of their currency & hence so have been their goods.
The total payroll amount is $50,000 per week.
Since there are only 5 work days per week (Monday to
Friday), therefore the employees wage per day is:
Employees wage per day = $50,000 / 5 = $10,000
For the payday on April 4, the wages expense covered for
this would be from April 1 to April 4 since the accounting period ended on
March 31. Therefore wages expense in the journal entry would be calculated
using 4 days.
Wages expense for April for the payday April 4 = Employees
wage per day * Number of days
Wages expense for April for the payday April 4 = $10,000 * 4

April for the payday April 4 = $40,000</span>

Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The amount of depreciation for 2017 using financial accounting straight-line depreciation will be:
= $39000 × 8months/5 years
= $39000 × 8months / 60months
= $39000 × 8/60
= $5200
b. The amount of depreciation for 2017 using the straight-line depreciation election will be:
= $39000 × 10%
= $39000 × 0.1
= $3900
c. The amount of depreciation for 2017, including bonus depreciation but no election to expense, that Mike could deduct using the MACRS tables will be:
= ($39000/2) + $3900
= $19500 + $3900
= $23400
d. If there is no income limit on the expense election, the amount of depreciation for 2017 including bonus depreciation and the election to expense that Mike can deduct will be:
= $25000 + $7000 + $1400
= $33400
