Answer: $700,000
Explanation: Retained earnings is the amount of earnings left with the company after paying for dividends of common stockholders.
Retained earnings break even can be computed as follows :-

where,
retained earnings = net income (1- payout ratio)
= $525,000 (1 - 60%)
= $210,000
therefore,

=$700,000
Answer:
Refer To The attached screen shot. It contains the Income Statement Prepared under Absorption Costing.
Explanation:
Absorption Costing assumes that the Manufacturing Costs include Direct Material, Direct Labor, Variable Overhead, and Fixed Overhead. Whereas, Selling and Administrative Expenses are classified as period Costs. These period costs are recognized in the period in which they are incurred. On the other hand, the manufacturing costs are recognized when the goods on which the costs were incurred are sold. That's why we don't recognize $78,000 as a Fixed Overhead because these overhead costs were incurred to produce 6,000 rackets. We have to calculate the fixed overhead cost per unit and multiply it with the units sold.
I hope I made it clear. If you have any queries, feel free to contact me.
Thanks.
Given, Operating income = 7,200
Fixed expenses = 1800
Let the target sales be assumed to be X
Sales = 7200 + 1800 + 0.6*Sales
X = 7200 +1800 +0.6X
X-0.6X = 9000
0.4X =9000
X = 22,500
Target Sales = 22,500
Break even point = Fixed Costs/(Price -Variable cost)
Break even point = 1,800/(1-0.6) = 1,800/0.4 = 4,500
Break even point =4,500
Margin of Safety = (Target sales - break even point)/ Target Sales
Margin of Safety = (22,500-4,500)/22,500 = 18,000/22,500 = 0.8 = 80%
Margin of Safety =80%
Answer:
Risk-free rate = 3.5%
Market risk-premium = 6.9%
Cost of equity (Ke) = ?
Ke = Rf +β(Rm - Rf)
Ke = Rf + Market risk premium
Ke = 3.5 + 6.9
Ke = 10.4%
Cost of debt (Kd) = 5.4%
Market value of debt (D) = 12
Market value of equity (E) = 88
Market value of the company (V) = 100
WACC = Ke(E/) + Kd(D/V)(1-T)
WACC = 10.4(88/100) + 5.4(12/100)(1-0.40)
WACC = 9.152 + 0.3888
WACC = 9.54%
Explanation:
In this case, there is need to calculate cost of equity according to capital asset pricing model, which is risk-free rate plus market risk-premium.
Then, we will calculate the weighted average cost of capital, which equals cost of equity multiplied by the proportion of equity in the capital structure plus after-tax cost of debt multiplied by the proportion of debt in the capital structure. Since the proportion of debt in the capital structure is 12%(12/100), the proportion of equity will be 88%(88/100).
