The firm is currently in the process of forecasting sales, asset requirements, and required funding for the coming year. In the

year that just ended, Fuzzy Button Clothing Company generated $300,000 net income on sales of $12,500,000. The firm expects sales to increase by 15% this coming year and also expects to maintain its long-run dividend payout ratio of 45%. Suppose Fuzzy Button’s assets are fully utilized. Using the additional funds needed (AFN) equation to determine the increase in total assets that is necessary to support a firm’s expected sales, it is projected that Fuzzy Button will require in additional assets. When a firm grows, some liabilities grow spontaneously along with sales. Spontaneous liabilities are a source of capital that the firm will generate internally, so they reduce the need for external capital. How much of the total increase in assets will be supplied by spontaneous liabilities for Fuzzy Button this year? $72,000 $54,000 $51,000 $60,000

Answer: $60,000

Explanation:

Sales are expected to grow by 15% so current Liabilities will also have to increase by 15% in order to fund the increase in Assets.

Increase in Spontaneous liabilities = Increase in sales * Current Liabilities

= 15% * (Accounts Payable + Accrued Liabilities)

= 15% * (250,000 +150,000)

= $60,000

zmey [24]

The complete question is as follows:

Harding Corporation acquired real estate that contained land, building and equipment. The property cost Harding $1,330,000. Harding paid $315,000 and issued a note payable for the remainder of the cost. An appraisal of the property reported the following values: Land, $333,000; Building, $990,000 and Equipment, $657,000. (Round your intermediate percentages to the nearest whole number: i.e 0.054231 = 5%. Do not round any other intermediate calculations.)Assume that Harding uses the units-of-production method when depreciating its equipment. Harding estimates that the purchased equipment will produce 1,040,000 units over its 5-year useful life and has salvage value of $17,000. Harding produced 269,000 units with the equipment by the end of the first year of purchase.Which amount below is

closest to the amount Harding will record for depreciation expense for the equipment in the first year?

A. $169,936

B. $165,538.462

C. $109,126

D. $88,460

Answer: B. $165,538.462

Explanation

Formula: Depreciation expense = step a

(cost of asset - salvage value)/estimated total units produced

step b = (step a) x actual units produced

step a = (65-17000)/1040000

= step a x 269000 = $B. $165,538.462

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is A)

Explanation:

When products and or services are manufactured at a level that maximizes social welfare, allocative efficiency is said to have occurred.

A market system characterized as monopolistic competition may <u><em>never </em></u>achieve productive efficiency because firms often fix prices at a point higher than their marginal costs.

Marginal cost refers to the added cost incurred by producing or manufacturing one additional unit of a product.
