Part d

Part e

Margin of safety in dollars = $960,000

Margin of safety in percentage = 33.3 %

Part f

Operating Leverage = 3.00

Explanation:

Income Statement :

Sales - Expenses = Income

Note : I have separated Variable and Fixed Expenses

Contribution Margin ratio :

Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

= $1,728,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 0.6 or 60 %

Break-even sales ( units and dollars) :

Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

= $1,152,000 ÷ $144.00

= 8,000

Break-even sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $1,152,000 ÷ 0.60

= $1,920,000

Margin of safety in dollars and as a percentage of sales :

Margin of safety in dollars = Expected Sales (dollars) - Break-even sales (dollars)

= $2,880,000 - $1,920,000

= $960,000

Margin of safety in % = (Expected Sales - Break-even sales ) ÷ Expected Sales

= $960,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 33.3 %

Operating leverage

Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ Earnings Before Interest and Tax

= $1,728,000 ÷ $576,000

= 3.00

Answer:

In the following situation:

Reethika is in a meeting and has an important question. The only coworker who can answer the question is in a different meeting.

The only way Reethika can get the answer without disturbing either meeting is:

Sending a direct text message to her co-worker's cellphone.

Explanation:

First of all, she can't send someone to look for her because that would disturb both meetings. Also, if she calls her that is also going to disturb both meetings. The only way she has is to send an e-mail or an SMS to her co-worker. However, that depends on the effect people can take upon her. Nevertheless, text messages like e-mails, SMS, or direct messages don't have a high level of disturbance. Considering most people have their cellphones in silence mode.

Manning Company issued 10,000 shares of its $5 par value common stock having a fair value of $25 per share and 15,000 shares of

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

$240,909

Explanation:

Given:

Number of common stocks issued = 10,000

Value of common stock = $5

Fair value per share = $25

Number of shares of $15 par value = 15,000

preferred stock having a fair value of $20 per share = $530,000

Total market value of the stocks = 10,000 × $25 + 15,000 × 20 = $550,000

Now,

The proceeds that would be allocated to the common stock will be

= $\frac{\textup{Total fair value of common stocks}}{\textup{Total maket value of the stocks}}\times\textup{Preffered value of total stocks}$

= $\frac{10,000\times25}{550,000}\times530,000$

= $240,909
