The Morris Corporation has $350,000 of debt outstanding, and it pays an interest rate of 8% annually. Morris's annual sales are
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

8.14 times

Explanation:

The computation of the Time interest earned ratio is shown below:

As we know that

Times interest earned ratio = (Earnings before interest and taxes) ÷ (Interest expense)

where,

Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for the year + Interest expense

But before tha,  we need to do the following calculations

The interest amount  is

= $350,000 × 0.08

= $28,000

The net profit is

= $1,750,000 × 8%

= $140,000

The EBIT is

= Profit before tax + interest expense

= $140,000 ÷ (1 - 0.30) + $28,000

= $200,000 + $28,000

= $228,000

And, the interest expense is $28,000

So, the TIE ratio is

= $228,000 ÷ $28,000

= 8.14 times

Contribution Margin = Contribution/Sales × 100

Therefore contribution margin is  ($444-$311)/$444 * 100 = 29.95% (2 d.p)

Part b

Sales - Variable Cost = Contribution

Net Income  =   Contribution - Total Fixed Costs                            

Part c

Break Even Point is when Billings neither makers a profit or loss.

Break Even Point ( Units) = Total Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit

Therefore Break Even Point (Units) = $59850/$133 = 450 units

Part d

The total and unit CVP should neither reflect a profit or loss at a capacity of 450 units as this is the break even point. In this case profit = nill

h=  80,824

d=117916  

i=67915.68  

e=$ 352196  

b=  58,800  

f= 373496

j=  234500

c= 15100

k=   1900

g=3721596

Explanation:

Orlando Company

Manufacturing Cost Data

                                                 Case A          Case B       Case C

Direct materials used                 (a)               $91,200    $69,000

a=149,800 - 42,804-  52,200     54796

Direct labor                               52,200         143,800          (h)

$69,000 +x+0.82h= 216100

1.82h= 216100-69000

h= 147100/1.82= 80,824                                                     80,824

Manufacturing overhead applied 42,804      (d)                   (i)

d=82% of 143,800=117916                                 117916

i=82% of 80824 =  67915.68                                                 67915.68                      

Total manufacturing costs 149,800                 (e)              216,100

e=$91,200+ 143,800+ 117916                              352196

Work in process 1/1/14              (b)                21,300           18,400

b=208,600- 149,800                   58,800

Total cost of work in process 208,600         (f)                   (j)

f=352196+ 21,300                                           373496

j=216,100 + 18,400                                                               234500

Work in process 12/31/14             (c)               11,900            (k)

c=208,600 - 193,500                     15100

k=234500 -232,600                                                            1900

Cost of goods manufactured 193,500           (g)             232,600

g=373496- 11,900                                         3721596

The formulas used are given below.

Total Manufacturing Cost = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overheads

Total cost of work in process= Total manufacturing costs+ Opening Work in process

Cost of goods manufactured= Total cost of work in process - Closing Work in process

In each of these if two amounts are known we can find the third one.We can also do rearrange these to find the required amounts.The calculation of each of the missing amount has been done next to it.
