Answer:

1) Colt Carriage Company

Income Statement

For the month ended April 202x

Revenues:

  • Adults passengers $186,300
  • Children $81,000                      
  • Total revenues                                       $267,300

Variable costs:

  • City fees $26,730
  • Souvenirs $7,425
  • Brokerage fees $11,340
  • Carriage drivers $52,650
  • Total variable costs                                  <u>$98,145</u>

Contribution margin                                        $169,155

Period costs:

  • Depreciation $2,900
  • Horse leases $48,000
  • Marketing expenses $7,350
  • Payroll expenses $7,600
  • Total period costs                                  <u>$65,850</u>

Operating profit                                             $103,305

2) If the total amount of passengers increase by 10%, then all variable costs will increase by 10% except brokerage fees which would increase only by 6%. Revenues should also increase by 10%. Period costs should not change.

Contribution margin should increase by 10.29% and operating profit would increase by 16.81%.

Explanation:

since the information is not complete, I looked it up:

Revenues

13,500 passengers:

8,100 x $23 = $186,300

5,400 x $15 = $81,000

total $267,300

variable costs:

fees paid to the city 10% of total revenue

souvenirs $0.55 per passenger

brokerage fees 60% of total tickets x $1.40

carriage drivers $3.90 per passenger

fixed costs:

depreciation $2,900

horse leases $48,000

marketing expenses $7,350

payroll expenses $7,600

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The range of possible transfer is $ 3.25 to $ 3.50

Explanation:

Data provided:

The purchasing cost of the transistor = $ 3.50

The total number of transistors needed = 8,000

The production cost of the transistor = $ 4.00

The included variable cost = $ 3.25

The included fixed cost = $ 0.75

Now,

the fixed cost cannot be altered, thus it will be there

hence,

the variable cost will be the factor that will evaluate the decision i.e $ 3.25

therefore, the <u>range of possible transfer is $ 3.25 to $ 3.50</u>

Dew wanted to create a campaign based on its core concept of diy. they ran multiple contests and created nations and communities
ruslelena [56]
By doing this, Dew was able to create a stronger bond with the customer and their brand. They already have brand awareness with their customers but now they are able to engage their customers by allowing them to have a "say" in their products. They are letting them design a product they would like to see on the market and become a part of the brand/company.

Donnie's Donuts incurs $450,000 per year in explicit costs and $200,000 in implicit costs. The bakery earns $800,000 in revenues
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

$150,000

Explanation:

Given that

Total revenue = $800,000

Explicit cost = $450,000

Implicit cost = $200,000

The computation of the accounting profit is as shown below :-

= Total revenue - Total cost

= $800,000 - $650,000

= $150,000

Total cost = Explicit cost -Implicit cost

= $450,000 + $200,000

= $650,000

Therefore for calculating the accounting profit we simply deduct the total cost from total revenue.
