Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

In managerial accounting, there are 2 meanings and significance of a relevant range.

1. The relevant range is the level of activity (range) that a firm is operating i.e. the volume of its production activity.

2. The relevant range is the level of activity within which certain cost behaviors are true i.e. whether the costs by their characteristics are fixed or variable.

Beyond a relevant range, cost behaviors could change in 2 ways

1. Variable costs could start manifesting the characteristic of semi variable costs or mixed costs or

2. Fixed costs could become stepped and become stepped fixed costs.

Therefore cost estimations which is based on cost behavior are only VALID within the relevant range. It is only within a given level of output that certain cost estimations holds true.

How does revenue affect profit (also<br> called “net profit”)? How do expenses<br> affect profit?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

<u>1. How revenue affects Profits</u>

Revenue is income that a business receives selling its products or from the services it provides. Income from other sources such as win in lawsuits is also revenue.

A business with high revenue is more profitable than a company with low income. For a business to make profits, its revenues must exceed its total expenditure. Profit is total income minus expenses. After the breakeven, extra sales contribute to profits. The more the sales, the higher the profits. Low revenue makes low profits.

<u>2. How do expenses affect profit?</u>

Expenses are costs incurred by a business in its productions and sales processes. Service providers incur expenses as they provide services to customers.

Expenses have a direct impact on profits. High costs may result in losses. Profits are realized after deducting expenses from revenues.

If the expenses are high, then profits will be minimal. Low expenses will result in high profits.

Glaus Leasing Company agrees to lease equipment to Jensen Corporation on January 1, 2020. The following information relates to t
Schach [20]

Solution:

a. It is a capital lease to Jensen, because the leasing period is more than 75% of the economic existence of the rented asset. The leasing duration is 78% (7-9) of the economic life of the commodity. That is a capital lease to Glaus, since the collectibility of the lease fees is fairly stable, there are no significant surprises regarding the expenses remaining to be borne by the lessor, so there is a lea. If the market valuation ($700,000) of the property equals the expense of the lessor ($525,000), the contract is a sale-type deal.

b. Calculation of annual rental payment:

\frac{700,000-(100,000X.51316)}{5.35526} = $121,130

**Present value of $1 at 10% for 7 periods.

**Present value of an annuity due at 10% for 7 periods

c. Computation of present value of minimum lease payments:

PV of annual payments: $121,130 X 5.23054 =

PV of guaranteed residual value:

$50,000 X   0.48166 = 24,083

**Present value of an annuity due at 11% for 7 periods.

**Present value of $1 at 11% for 7 periods
