Answer:

a. as corporations.

Explanation:

Local governments cannot establish banks. Therefore, option B is the wrong answer.

A bank cannot be a credit union. It is a member-owned cooperative business that shares profit. Therefore, option C is not the answer.

The only central bank is established to fulfill the reserve requirement. Hence, option D is incorrect.

Banks are established by the help of institutional investors or shareholders' equity. Therefore, most banks are established as a corporation. So, option A is the answer.

Oriole Company had $234,200 of net income in 2019 when the selling price per unit was $151, the variable costs per unit were $91

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

A) 13,500 units

B) 14,630 units

C) $156 is the selling price.

Explanation:

A) Number of units sold = Total sales/selling price per unit

Given,

Operating profit (Net income) = $234,200

Selling price per unit = $151

Variable cost per unit = $91

Contribution margin per unit = $(151-91) = $60

With the help of contribution approach, we can find the total sales.

Per Unit Total Cost

Selling price $151

Less: Variable cost 91

Contribution Margin(1) $60 $810,000

Less: Fixed cost $575,800

Net Income $234,200

Note: 1) Contribution Margin - Fixed cost = Net income

Contribution Margin = Net income + fixed cost

Contribution Margin = $234,200 + 575,800

Contribution Margin = $810,000

Total number of units = Contribution Margin/Contribution margin per unit

Total number of units sold = $810,000/$60

Total number of units sold = 13,500 units

B) We know,

Desired sales unit = $\frac{Fixed cost + Target profit}{Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit}$

Given, as the selling price, variable cost and fixed cost remain same in 2020. Therefore,

Selling price per unit = $151

Variable cost per unit = $91

Fixed cost = $575,800

Targeted profit = $67,500 + 234,500 = $302,000

Therefore, desired sales unit = $\frac{575,800 + 302,000}{151 - 91}$

Desired sales unit = 14,630 units need to be sold in 2020.

C) If the company wants to sell 13,500 units but wants to achieve $(234,200+67,500) = $302,000 amount of profit, the company has to increase its selling price. Because the company cannot change the fixed cost.

Therefore,

Contribution Margin - Fixed cost = Net income

or, Contribution Margin = Net income + fixed cost

or, Contribution Margin = $302,000 + 575,800 = $877,800

Therefore, contribution margin per unit = $\frac{877,800}{13,500}$

Contribution margin per unit = $65

As the variable cost will not be changed, the selling price should be -

Selling price - variable expense per unit = Contribution margin per unit

Selling price = Contribution margin per unit + variable expense per unit

Selling price/unit = $65 + $91 = $156

Under ASC 606, the transaction price generally should be adjusted for the effect of the time value of money when

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

B. The selling price of the product and the consideration promised in the contract differ significantly.

Explanation:

"While determining the transaction price, an entity shall adjust the amount of consideration with respect to the time value of money, if the timing of payment to be made by customer under the contract provides some signiﬁcant beneﬁt of ﬁnancing to the customer or the entity for the transfer of goods or services to the customer. The Signiﬁcant ﬁnancing beneﬁt could be explicit or implicit in the contract.

The idea behind the signiﬁcant ﬁnancing component is that entity should consider the revenue based on the price that a customer would have paid at the time of transferring the goods or services to the customer by the entity i.e. Cash Selling Price (If the payment was made immediately)."

The present value of a lump sum future amount:__________

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

d) increases as the interest rate decreases.

Explanation:

Present value is the value today; future value is the value some time in the future.

The mere notion of the value of money in time should tell you that, further away in time (towards the future) a sum of money is found, the lower its value today.

Then, you should be able to rule out some propositions that are contrary to that intuition:

a) decreases as the time period decreases ↔ clearly false: the present value increases as the time period decreases

e) is directly related to the time period. ↔ clearly false: the present value is inversely related to the time period.

How is the present value related to the future value?

They are directly related: the higher a lump sum in the future the higher the value of it in the present; more money is more money always. More money in the future has more value in the present; less money in the future has less value in the present. Thus, the option b). is inversely related to the future value is false

How is the present value related to the interest rate?. Which one is true?

c) is directly related to the interest rate, or

d) increases as the interest rate decreases

The present value is calculated discounted the future value at the interest rate. The interest rate is in the denominator of the equation to pass from future value to present value. Thus, they are inversely related (c is false); the less the interest rate, the higher the present value of a future amount (confirm d is true).

Therefore, the correct answer is that the present of a lump sum future amount: d) increases as the interest rate decreases.
