Answer:
Mark−up percentage = 18.75%
Explanation:
Total manufacturing cost= Direct material + Direct labor + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead
= $36 + $24 + $18 + $40
= $118
Hence, the total manufacturing cost is $118.
Total selling cost = Fixed selling cost + Variable selling cost
Total selling cost = $28 + $14
Total selling cost = $42
Hence, the total selling cost is $42
Total cost = Total Manufacturing cost + Total selling cost
Total cost = $118 + $42
Total cost = $160
Mark−up percentage = ROI / Total cost * 100
Mark−up percentage = $30 / $160 * 100
Mark−up percentage = 0.1875 * 100
Mark−up percentage = 18.75%
Answer:
- Gain = $271,310
- Net reduction in retained earnings = $105,690
Explanation:
Gain = (Ivanhoe market price - Purchase price) * Number of shares issued as property dividend
Purchase price = 130,000 / 16,000
= $8.13
Number of shares issued as property dividend = 130,000 shares of Concord / 10
= 13,000 Ivanhoe shares
Gain = (29 - 8.13) * 13,000
= $271,310
Net reduction in retained earnings:
= Dividends payable - Gain
= (13,000 * 29) - 271,310
= $105,690
Answer:
a. $8,000 gain
Explanation:
The face value of the bonds purchased by Pluto Corporation are $120,000. The bonds are purchased at discount of $1,980. The bonds have carrying value of $126,019 at the time of purchase. The net gain or loss is calculated by the difference between two values.
$120,000 - $126,019 - $6,019
The discount amount of the bond was $1,980.
Total gain on the bonds approximately ($6,019 + $1,980) = $8,000
