Answer:

For the declaration of cash dividends Sanders Corporation will credit dividends payable because it is a liability and we will debit retained earnings , because Sanders Corporation are using our retained earnings to pay the dividend.

preferred dividend = 7,000*3= $21,000

common stock dividend= 45,000*2.2=$99,000

Entries for declaration of dividend

                                                            Debit                                    Credit

Retained Earnings                                120,000

Preferred dividend payable                                                               21,000

Common stock dividend payable                                                      99,000

For recording the payment of cash dividend we will debit the dividend payables because when we pay the dividend the liability is finished, and we will credit cash because we are paying the dividends using cash and that is an asset that is decreasing so we will credit it.

Blanchard Company manufactures a single product that sells for $ 180 per unit and whose total variable costs are $ 126 per unit
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Part 1

<u>Income Statement at 15,600 units</u>

Sales ($ 180 x 15,600)                                     $2,808,000

Less Variable Costs ($126 x 15,600)             ($1,965,600)

Contribution                                                        $842,400

Less Fixed Costs                                               ($842,400)

Net Income                                                                    $0

Part 2

$3,278,000

Explanation:

Break even (units) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit

                               = $ 842,400 ÷ ($ 180 - $126)

                               = 15,600 units

<u>Assume the company's fixed costs increase by $ 141.000</u>

Break even (units) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit

                               = ($ 842,400 + $ 141.000) ÷ ($ 180 - $126)

                               = 18,212 units

Break even Revenue = 18,212 x  $ 180 =  $3,278,000
