Answer:

65%

Explanation:

Given that

Sales = $979,000

Variable manufacturing expense = $232,000

Variable selling and administrative expense = $110,650

The computation of contribution margin ratio is shown below:-

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales - Variable manufacturing expense - Variable selling and administrative expense) × 100 ÷ Sales

= ($979,000 - $232,000 - $110,650) × 100 ÷ $979,000

= ($979,000 - $342,650) × 100 ÷ $979,000

= $636,350 × 100 ÷ $979,000

= 65%

sashaice [31]

Answer:

I) Days sales outstanding (DSO) for all customers?      48.7days

= (53*0.9)+(10*0.1) = 48.7 days

II) Net sales?                                                                  $166.600

The Net sales = Gross sales - sales allowance  

The discount amount due for the 10% discount customers = 2% of the 10% of 170 mn ==>  0.02 * 0.1 * 170 ===> 0.34 mn

∴ The Net sales = 17 - 0.34 mn = 16.66 mn

   Amount paid by discount customers?                     $13.600

Explanation:

I. General Credit Policy Information

  Credit stamps                                                               2/10 Net 30

  Days sales outstanding (DSO) for all customers    48.7days

  DSO for customers who take the discount (10%)      10days

  DSO for customers who forgo the discount (90%)    53days

II. Annual Credit Sales and Costs ($ millions)

  Gross sales                                                                 $170.000

  Net sales?                                                                   $166.600

  Amount paid by discount customers                      $13.600

  Amount paid by non discounted customers           $153.000

 Variable operating costs (82% of gross sales)         $139.40

 Bad debts                                                                    $0.0

 Credit evaluation & collection costs (10% of gross sales) $17.00

If the natural rate of unemployment is 5%, and the actual rate of unemployment is 4%: a the short-run Phillips curve will shift
fiasKO [112]

Answer: d. inflation will increase.

Explanation:

The Natural rate of unemployment is the long term rate of unemployment which means that it is the rate associated with the Potential GDP.

If the Actual unemployment is less than this natural rate, it means that the Economy is performing better than the potential GDP. When this is happening, it means that the economy is overheating.

One of the symptoms of an overheated economy is increased inflation as more people can afford to buy goods and services. Inflation is therefore more probably rising in this economy.

How would inflation impact on a start up business?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Let's say that the value of the US dollar goes down due to inflation.

A startup business would have to pay more money to it's employees, spend more money on products, try and charge the same prices, and lose a lot of money. Essentially, more money would be going out than coming in.

we will use here Gordon model for compute company's cost of equity that is

market value = \frac{dividend* ( 1+growth\ rate)}{cost\ of\ equity - Growth\ rate}         ........................1

put here value we get

43.96 = \frac{3.73* ( 1+0.034)}{cost\ of\ equity - 0.034}

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is

A)  An exchange of a long position in a fixed-rate bond for a short position in a floating-rate note.

Explanation:

Swapping a fixed interest for a floating one can occur if the fixed interest tenure in comparison to a floating exchange rate becomes less expensive for the entity who took the loan.

Also executing a swap in interest rates (that is giving up the fixed tenure for the floating tenure) helps to ensure that liabilities are kept at minimum whilst assets are maximised.

It is important to note that the capital remains unmodified.

Cheers
