Answer:

A person’s income may drop

Explanation:

Inflation is the continuous and widespread increase in prices over a given period of time. When inflation occurs, people's salaries must be corrected together. For example, if inflation is 5% per year, wages must increase by at least 5%, otherwise the person's purchasing power will be reduced, which means that the person's income has decreased. This is because with the same salary, the person can buy a smaller amount of inflated goods and services. For example, if with my salary I buy 10 fruits and an inflation of 10% occurs, but my salary does not increase, I will be able to buy only 9 fruits and not 10 more.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Assets = $ 55650

Liability =8300

Owner's equity=47350

Liability and Owner's equity.=8300 +47350=$55650

Explanation:

Using The basic equation we add the transaction to arrive at the actual amounts.

Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

1. 50,000= 50,000

Cash +Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

2. 35,800 +14,200= 50,000

Cash +Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense

3) 33600+ 14200 = 50,000 - 2,200

Cash +Canoes = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense

4) 33600+ 14200+ 4900= 4900 + 50,000 - 2,200

Cash +Canoes = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense

5) 33600+ 19,100 + 3,400= 4900+ 3400 + 50,000 - 2,200

Cash +Canoes + Office Equip = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense

6) 33225+22500+ 375= 8,300 + 50,000 - 2,200

Cash +Canoes + Office Equip+ A/ R = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense

7) 33225+22500+ 375+ 1350 = 8,300 + 50,000 - 2,200+ 1350

Cash +Canoes + Office Equip+ A/ R = Liabilities + Owner's Equity- Rent Expense- drawings

8) 31425+22500+ 375+ 1350 = 8,300 + 50,000 - 2,200+ 1350-1800

We get

Cash = 31425

Kayak And Canoe 22500

Office Equipment= 375

Accounts Receivable= 1350

Accounts Payable = 8300

Capital less Drawings= 50,000- 1800= 48,200(850)= 47350

Revenue- Expenses = 1350 -2200= (850)

Assets = Cash +Kayak And Canoe +Office Equipment+ Accounts Receivable = 31425 +22500 + 375 +1350= $ 55650

Liability =8300

Owner's equity=47350

Liability and Owner's equity.=8300 +47350=$55650

A market for existing financial securities that are currently traded among investors is called the Secondary market.

A secondary market is a market for the purchase and sale of existing securities or other assets. They differ from primary markets, where the assets were created. Generally, most investors will only trade on secondary markets.

Transactions in the secondary market are undertaken with other investors rather than the security issuer. The procedure is comparable to buying products from the classifieds or a used car from a dealership rather than the manufacturer.

Stocks and bonds purchased in a retirement plan or through a brokerage account, for example, are traded on secondary markets.

Assume you have two portfolios: one through an employee stock ownership plan and the other through a discount brokerage. The main market transaction occurs when you purchase stock directly from the corporation, like in the first plan. It is a secondary market transaction when you buy in a discount brokerage account through stock exchanges.

Part b

Part c

Break-even sales (dollars) = $1,920,000

Part d

See attachment

Part e

Margin of safety in dollars = $960,000

Margin of safety in percentage = 33.3 %

Part f

Operating Leverage = 3.00

Explanation:

Income Statement :

Sales - Expenses = Income

Note : I have separated Variable and Fixed Expenses

Contribution Margin ratio :

Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

= $1,728,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 0.6 or 60 %

Break-even sales ( units and dollars) :

Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

= $1,152,000 ÷ $144.00

= 8,000

Break-even sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $1,152,000 ÷ 0.60

= $1,920,000

Margin of safety in dollars and as a percentage of sales :

Margin of safety in dollars = Expected Sales (dollars) - Break-even sales (dollars)

= $2,880,000 - $1,920,000

= $960,000

Margin of safety in % = (Expected Sales - Break-even sales ) ÷ Expected Sales

= $960,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 33.3 %

Operating leverage

Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ Earnings Before Interest and Tax

= $1,728,000 ÷ $576,000

= 3.00
