Answer:

What is the firm's degree of operating leverage?

the degree of operating leverage measures the proportion of fixed costs vs. variable costs

total fixed costs = $30,000,000

contribution margin per hard drive = selling price - variable cost = $200 - $140 = $60

tax rate = 30%

expected sales = 2,000,000 hard drives

degree of operating leverage =  contribution margin / (total sales - total costs) = (2,000,000 x $60) / ($400,000,000 - $280,000,000 - $30,000,000) = $120,000,000 / $90,000,000 = 1.33

DOL = 1.33

If the economy enters a recession, what will be the firm's after tax profit?

firm's EBIT = total revenue - variable costs - fixed costs

  • total revenue = 1,000,000 x $200 = $200,000,000
  • total variable costs = 1,000,000 x $140 = $140,000,000
  • total fixed costs = $30,000,000

EBIT = $200,000,000 - $140,000,000 - $30,000,000 = $30,000,000

firm's after tax profit = EBIT x (1 - tax rate) = $30,000,000 x (1 - 30%) = $21,000,000

firm's after tax profit = $21,000,000

adoni [48]

Answer:

The answer is: Inventory cost is $4,900

Explanation:

ACB Manufacturing purchased $6,000 worth of merchandise with credit terms 2/10 or n/30. This means that if the company pays its debt within 10, it will receive a 2% discount.

It returned $1,000 worth of defective merchandise, decreasing its total debt to $5,000. Since ACB Manufacturing paid its debt within the first ten days, it got a 2% discount. It paid a total of $4,900 for the merchandise, so that should be its inventory cost.
