Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The elimination of the North division would result in an increase to net operating income of $100,000 for the South division.

Explanation:

Please see computation of the company's overall net profit

= South sales - South variable costs - South traceable fixed costs - South allocated common corporate cost - North allocated common corporate cost

= $880,000 - $550,000 - $80,000 - $50,000 - $100,000

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Make since the relevant cost to make it is $59.05

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what Epsilon should choose to:

Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + [41*(100%-35%)]

Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + (41*65%)

Relevant costs to make = 8.20 + 24.20 + 26.65

Relevant costs to make =$59.05

Therefore Epsilon should choose to: MAKE SINCE THE RELEVANT COST TO MAKE IT IS $59.05

A stock has a required return of 11%; the risk-free rate is 7%; and the market risk premium is 4%.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The Beta is 1

The required return increases to 13%

Explanation:

The formula for required return is given below:

Required Return = Risk-Free Rate of Return + β(Market Return – Risk-Free Rate of Return)

required return is 11%

risk-free rate of return=7%

Beta is unknown

market return-risk free rate of return is market risk premium is 4%

11%=7%+beta(4%)

11%-7%=beta*4%

4%=beta*4%

beta=4%/4%

beta=1

If the market risk premium increased to 6%,required return is calculated thus:

required return=7%+1(6%)

required return =13%

This implies that the riskier the stock, the higher the market risk premium, the higher the required return to investors.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:</u>

<u></u>

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 12,000 + 87,000 - 23,000

COGS= $76,000

<u>Traditional format income statement:</u>

Sales= 14,000*16= 224,000

COGS= (76,000)

Gross profit= 148,000

Total selling expense= (20,000 + 14,000*1)= (34,000)

Total administrative expense= (13,000 + 14,000*1)= (27,000)

Net operating income= 87,000

<u>Contribution format income statement:</u>

Sales= 14,000*16= 224,000

Total variable cost= (76,000 + 14,000 + 14,000)= (104,000)

Contribution margin= 120,000

Total fixed selling expense= (20,000)

Total fixed administrative expense= (13,000)

Net operating income= 87,000
