Answer:

Increase by $10,000

Explanation:

Calculating current profit

Sales = 7,000 units X $100 = $700,000

Less: Variable Cost, Direct labor $15 + Direct material $40 = $55 each unit

= $7,000 X $55 = $385,000

Less: Fixed Cost = Product level $65,000 + Facility Level = $50,000 = $115,000

Total profit = $700,000 - $385,000 - $115,000 = $200,000

Since the entire production capacity is for 10,000 units and only 7,000 units are produced additional production of 2,000 units is within the limit and will not require additional fixed cost.

Thus profit on sale of these 2,000 units

Sales value = 2,000 X $60 = $120,000

Less: Variable cost per unit of $55 = 2,000 X $55 = $110,000

Profit on these 2,000 units = $120,000 - $110,000 = $10,000

This concludes that <u>profit will increase by $10,000</u> with this order of 2,000 units.

Sweet Company’s outstanding stock consists of 1,000 shares of noncumulative 5% preferred stock with a $100 par value and 10,000
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Preferred dividend per year:

= (Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock ) × 5% preferred stock

= (1,000 × $100) × 5%

= ($100,000) × 5%

= $5,000

Any balance left over would be paid to common stockholders.

Year 1:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $2,000

Paid to common stockholders = 0

Year 2:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($6,000 - $5,000)

                                                  = $1,000

Year 3:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($32,000 - $5,000)

                                                  = $27,000

Therefore,

Total amount of dividends paid to preferred Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $2,000 + $5,000 + $5,000

= $12,000

Total amount of dividends paid to common Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $0 + $1,000 + $27,000

= $28,000

More than two-thirds of business meetings are considered to be what
coldgirl [10]

Complete Question:

More than two-thirds of meetings are considered to be:

A. Highly engaging and productive

B. More effective than a well-worded email

C. Slow sometimes, but mostly entertaining

D. A waste of time

Answer:

D. A waste of time

Explanation:

This answer implies that the number of business meetings should be reduced.  Issues discussed at business meetings can be ironed out through other means of communication.  For example, emails can be used.  Instructions and other information can be passed to the team without necessarily holding meetings.  Teams can interact effectively and efficiently without holding face-to-face meetings.  Some meetings are not productive at all, as the head of the meeting still dominates the speeches instead of giving the team members a conducive environment to air their concerns and opinions and make effective suggestions that will improve business performance and outcomes.
