Answer:

a.An increase in cash flows from operating activities

Explanation:

The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.

The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets such as inventory, accounts receivables etc, (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.

The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.

An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. A decrease in assets (other than cash) is an inflow of cash while a decrease in liabilities is an outflow of cash.

Answer: Pooled interdependence

Explanation:

Pooled interdependence is a loose organizational model in which each business unit carries out it's own separate functions, might not interact with the other units and does not depend on other units directly even though it contributes to the accomplishment of the organizational goals and success.

Pooled interdependence is often seen as the loosest form of interdependence in organizations. Although the departments may not interact directly and may not depend on each other directly in the pooled interdependence model, every department contributes it's own individual pieces to the achievement of the same overall puzzle.

This creates a blind, indirect dependence on each other and the performance of a department has an impact on others as a department's failures may lead to the failure of the entire organization.

A process plant making 5000 kg/day of a product selling for $1.75/kg has annual variable pro- duction costs of $2 million at 100

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

a. Breakeven point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable costs per unit

Variable cost per unit = 2,000,000 / (5,000 * 365 days)

= $1.10

Contribution margin = 1.75 - 1.10

= $0.65

Breakeven point = 700,000 / 0.65

= 1,076,923 kg

Fixed cost per kilogram at those units is:

= 700,000 / 1,076,923

= $0.65

_________________________________________________________

b. Net profit at original prices:

= (Contribution margin * units produced) - Fixed costs

= (0.65 * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000

= $486,250

Less taxes:

= 486,250 * (1 - 35%)

= $316,062.50

Net profit after price increase:

New selling price = 1.75 * 1.1

= $1.93

Net profit = ((Selling price - Variable cost) * units sold) - fixed cost

= ( (1.93 - 1.10) * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000

= $814,750

After tax:

= 814,750 * (1 - 35%)

= $529,587.50

Dollar increase:

= 529,587.50 - 316,062.50

= $213,525
