Answer:

$331,500

Explanation:

The computation of the ending balance of the pension benefit obligation is shown below:

= Opening balance of PBO + service cost + interest cost - pension benefits

= $265,000 + $80,000 + $26,500 - $40,000

= $331,500

The computation of the interest cost is shown below:

= Opening balance of PBO × discount rate

= $265,000 × 10%

= $26,500

The increased value of the plan assets would be ignored.

Answer:

a) Contribution margin= $6,4

b) break-even point:

in units=76562 cds

in dollars=$869058

c) Net profit= $5910000

d) Q=107813 cds

Explanation:

Variable costs:

CD package and disc $1.25/CD

Songwriters’ royalties $0.35/CD

Recording artists’ royalties $1.00/CD

<u>Total Variable costs= $2,6</u>

Fixed Costs:

Advertising and promotion $275,000

Studio Recordings$215,000

Total fixed costs= $490000

Price=$9

a) contribution margin= Price- variable costs= 9-2,6= $6,4

b) break-even point:

in units=fixed costs/contribution margin=490000/6,4= 76562 cds

in dollars= fixed costs/(contribution to sale ratio)

in dollars= fixed costs/(contribution margin/price)

in dollars= 490000/(6,4/9)= $869058

c) q=1000000

sales= 9000000           (1000000*9)

variable costs= -2600000      (1000000*2,6)

fixed costs= -490000

Net profit= $5910000

d)Profit= 200000  q=?

using the break-even formula

Q=(fixed cost+profit)/contribution margin

Q=690000/6.4=107813 cds

stepan [7]

Answer:

Sales quantity for A = $17,977

Sales quantity for B = $18,539

Sales quantity for C = $18,876

Explanation:

Given that

Monthly profit = $11,000

Fixed cost A = $5,000

Fixed cost B = $5,500

Fixed cost c = $5,800

The computation of given question is below:-

Every Sandwich Profit

= $2.65 - $1.76

= $0.89

Sales quantity = (Profit + Fixed cost) ÷ Profit per unit

Sales quantity for A = ($11,000 + $5,000) ÷ $0.89

= $17,977

Sales quantity for B = ($11,000 + $5,500) ÷ $0.89

= $18,539

Sales quantity for C = ($11,000 + $5,800) ÷ $0.89

= $18,876
