We can find the increase in operating income for each $ 1,000 increase in revenue per month by finding the contribution margin ratio and the multiplying it with the increase operating income of $ 1,000 each.

The formula to find the contribution margin ratio is :-

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin per unit / Selling price per unit

= 12 / 20 = 60%

The increase in operating income = Contribution margin ratio * Revenue

= 60 % * 1,000

= $ 600

The calculations are shown below :-

Selling price per unit = $ 20

Variable cost per unit = $ 8

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $ 20 - $ 8 = $ 12

Solve the problem using 6.2%, up to $128,400 for Social Security tax and using 1.45%, no wage limit, for Medicare tax.
bekas [8.4K]

$3878.55

Explanation:

Step 1 :

It is given that Kristy has a biweekly gross earnings of $1950.

Since it is bi-weekly payments there are 26 payments in the year.

Gross earnings per year = 1950 * 26 = $50,700

Step 2 :

It is given that the social security tax is 6.2% up to $128,400. Kristy's earnings of 50,700$ does not exceed the threshold $128,400, hence 6.2% of her entire income is subject to social security withholding.

Social security withholding = 6.2% of 50,700 = 6.2*50700/100 = $3143.40

Step 3 :

It is given that Medicare tax is 1.45% with no wage limit

Medicare withholding = 1.45% of 50,700 = 1.45*50700/100 = $735.15

Total withholding = Social Security withholding + Medicare withholding 3143.40 + 735.15 = $3878.55

Answer:

The amount of revenue to be recognized at 31st March is $383500

Explanation:

The revenue amount that should be recognized in the income statement as at March 31,2020 is the  sales price of $365000 plus three months of installation fee since installation is expected to last six months and three months have passed since installation began.

Hence, the amount of revenue as at 31st March is calculated thus:

Sales price                                                                     $365000

Installation fee for 3 months(3/6*$37000)                   <u>$18500</u>

Total revenue as at 31st March                                    $ 383,500

The rationale behind this is that revenue is only recognized when the seller has discharged his or her obligation under the contract not when cash is received and it is very clear that installation has been undertaken for 3 out of 6 months
