Question 26 The Paper Mill is operating at full capacity. Assets, costs, and current liabilities vary directly with sales. The d

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

$2,260

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Present sales revenue $42,700

Expected sales revenue ($42,700 × 114 ÷ 100) $48,678

Current profit margin ($5,500 ÷ $42,700 × 100) 12.88%

Payout Ratio:

Dividends (a) $1,925

Net Income (b) $5,500

Payout Ratio (a ÷ b × 100) 35%

Retention Ratio (100% - 35%) 65%

due to 14% rise in sales Increase in retained earnings ($48,678 × 12.88 ÷ 100 × 65 ÷ 100) $4,075.32

due to 14% rise in sales, Increase in assets ([$48,678 - $42,700] × $48,900 ÷ $42,700) $6,846

due to 14% rise in sales, Increase in liabilities ([$48,678 - $42,700] × $3,650 ÷ $42,700) $511

when sales rise by 14% External Financing Needed ($6,846 - $4,075.32 - $511) $2,260

Your parents will retire in 29 years. They currently have $200,000 saved, and they think they will need $2,400,000 at retirement

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

8.95%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Time, n = 29 years

Principle amount = $200,000

Future value = $2,400,000

Now,

Using the compounding formula

Future value = Principle × [ 1 + r ]ⁿ

here,

r is the interest rate

Thus,

$2,400,000 = $200,000 × [ 1 + r ]²⁹

or

[ 1 + r ]²⁹ = 12

taking the natural log both the sides, we have

29 × ln(1 + r) = ln(12)

or

ln(1 + r) = 0.08569

or

1 + r = $e^{0.08569}$

or

1 + r = 1.0895

or

r = 0.0895

or

r = 0.0895 × 100% = 8.95%

A company is considering opening a new product line. The building being considered will have a monthly lease and utility payment

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the total fixed costs:</u>

Total fixed costs= 3,500 + (120*2*15)

Total fixed costs= $7100

<u>Now, using the following formula, we can determine the break-even point in units:</u>

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 7,100 / (100 - 40)

Break-even point in units= 118.33 = 119 units

<u>Finally, the number of units to earn $10,000 in profit:</u>

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (7,100 + 10,000) / 60

Break-even point in units= 285
