Average Total cost refers to the average cost it takes to produce one unit of the product.

It is arrived at by:

1) Determining all the costs ( variable and fixed costs) and summing them all.

Total Costs= Variable costs + Fixed Costs

2) Determining the total number of the units produced.

Therefore to establish the total average cost you will have to divide the total cost( Variable and Fixed) with the total number of units produced.

Total Average Costs = Total cost ( variable+ fixed)/ Total units of output.

Given the situation described above, Alma will be able to cast 50 votes.

This is because common stock gives voting rights to shareholders. And given that Alma has 50 shares of common stocks. Therefore, he would be able to cast 50 votes.

On the other hand, preferred stocks give no voting rights to shareholders.

However, preferred shareholders have preference over a company's revenue or earnings, which implies that they are paid dividends before common shareholders.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is "50 votes."

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

3) Corporations use acquisition as a substitute for innovation.

Explanation:

The fastest way in which a corporation can enter a new market or develop new products is through buying existing companies that already operate in the new target markets or have developed the new products that the corporation wishes to sell.

Research and development is very costly and time consuming, and on many occasions the results aren't even good or are not as good as expected. By acquiring a smaller company that has already developed the product, then the corporation might even save money.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

1-a. Total Contribution margin is $210,000 and Net operating income is $28,000.

1-b. Degree of Operating Leverage = 7.50

2-a. The expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Expected amount of Net Operating Income is $70,000.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 15,000 games last year at a selling price of $20 per game. Fixed costs associated with the game total $182,000 per year, and variable costs are $6 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable costs consist mostly of payments to this contractor.

Required:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

2. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption:

a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

b. What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

The contribution format income statement for the game last year can be prepared as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc.

Contribution Income Statement

For Last Year

Details Total ($) Per Unit ($)

Sales 300,000 20

Variable cost (90,000) (6)

Contribution margin 210,000 14

Fixed expense (182,000)

Net operating income  28,000 

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Operating Income = $210,000 / $28,000 = 7.50

2-a. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

Since:

Degree of Operating Leverage = Percentage change in Operating Income / Percentage change in Sales

Substituting the relevant values, we have:

7.50 = Percentage change in Operating Income / 20%

Percentage change in Operating Income = 7.5 * 20% = 150%

Therefore, the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

This can be calculated as follows:

Change in Net Operating Income = 150% * $28,000 = $42,000

Expected amount of Net Operating Income = Current Net Operating Income + Change in Net Operating Income = $28,000 + $42,000 = $70,000
