One conclusion that companies can draw from examining operational leverage is that companies that minimize fixed costs can increase profits without changing selling prices, contribution margins, or unit sales.
The Operating Leverage formula is used to calculate a company's break-even point, helping to set a reasonable selling price that covers all costs and produces a profit. This gives you insight into how well your company is using fixed-cost items such as inventory and machinery to make a profit. The more profit a company can extract from the same amount of fixed assets, the higher its operational leverage.

Answer:
WACC = 11.45 %
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund
WACC = (Wd×Kd) + (We×Ke) + (Wp × Kp)
After-tax cost of debt = Before tax cost of debt× (1-tax rate)
Kd-After-tax cost of debt = 11.1%(1-0.4) =6.66%
Ke-Cost of equity = 14.7%
Kp= Cost of preferred stock = 12.2%
Wd-Weight of debt =100/270=0.370
We-Weight of equity = 140/270=0.518
Wp= weight of preferred stock = 30/270=0.111
WACC = (0.518× 14.7%) + (0.370 × 6.7%) + (0.111×12.2) = 11.447%
WACC = 11.45 %
Answer:
wax
Explanation:
Raw materials are the components or ingredients used to manufacture finished goods. They are the unprocessed materials that go through the production process or refining to give a consumable product.
Wax is the main raw material in the production of candles. A company involved in making candles need a source of wax to stay in business.
Answer:
Total= 45,684 feet
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production budget:
February= 10,993
March= 8,559
Each chair produced uses 5 board feet of wood.
Management wants an ending inventory level of raw materials to equal 20% of the production needs (in wood) for the next month.
Direct material budget:
Production= 10,993*5= 54,965
Desired ending inventroy= (8,559*5)*0.2= 1,712
Beginning inventory= (10,993*5)*0.2= (10,993)
Total= 45,684 feet
Answer:
Net income = $76,000
Earning per share (EPS):
Income from continuing operations per share = $4.40 per share
Loss from discontinued operations per share = -$3.64 per share
Net Income per share = $0.76 per share
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the income statement.
Also Note: Two years (2016 and 2018) were mistakenly mentioned in the question instead of just one of them. I therefore picked 2016 to prepare the income statement.
In the attached excel file, the earning per share (EPS) is calculated as follows:
Number of shares outstanding = 100,000 shares
Income from continuing operations per share = Income from continuing operations / Number of shares outstanding = $440,000 / 100,000 = $4.40 per share
Loss from discontinued operations per share = Loss from discontinued operations / Number of shares outstanding = -$364,000 / 100,000 = -$3.64 per share
Net Income per share = Net Income / Number of shares outstanding = $76,000 / 100,000 = $0.76 per share
