Answer: $25

Explanation:

Total revenue, at price = $50

Total revenue = price × units sold

                       = $50 × 0

                       = 0

Total revenue, at price = $45

Total revenue = price × units sold

                       = $45 × 1

                       = $45

Total revenue, at price = $40

Total revenue = price × units sold

                       = $40 × 2

                       = $80

Total revenue, at price = $35

Total revenue = price × units sold

                       = $35 × 3

                       = $105

Marginal revenue of third unit = \frac{Change\ in\ total\ revenue}{change\ in\ units\ sold}

                                                    = \frac{105 - 80}{3 - 2}

                                                    = $25

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

A. Determine how many miles Russell needs to drive to break even?

break even formula = total fixed costs / contribution margin

  • total fixed costs = $1,220
  • contribution margin = $1.30 - $0.29 = $1.01

break even formula = $1,220 / $1.01 = 1,207.9 ≈ 1,208 miles

B. Assume Russell drove 2,500 miles last month. Without making any additional calculations, determine whether he earned a profit or a loss last month.

if he drove 2,500 he made a profit because it is more than the break even point.

C. Determine how many miles Russell must drive to earn $2,135.00 in profit.

($1,220 + $2,135) / $1.01 = 3,321.7 ≈ 3,322 miles

D. Prepare a contribution margin income statement assuming Russell drove 2,500 miles last month.

total revenue                         $3,250

<u>- variable costs                       ($725)</u>

contribution margin              $2,525

<u>- fixed costs                         ($1,220)</u>

net income                            $1,305

E. Use the above information to calculate Russell’s degree of operating leverage.

Degree of operating leverage = contribution margin / operating income = $2,525 / $3,250 = 0.7769 or 77.69%

Larned Corporation recorded the following transactions for the just completed month.
Yanka [14]

Answer with its Explanation:

Part 1: $89,000 in raw materials were purchased on account.

The purchase of raw material inventory on account is treated as increase in raw material inventory and accounts payables. The journal entry would be as under:

Dr Raw Material Inventory $89,000

Cr Accounts Payables              $89,000

Part 2: $87,000 in raw materials were used in production. Of this amount, $76,000 was for direct materials and the remainder was for indirect materials.

The entry would be increase in work in progress by $76,000 & Manufacturing overhead by $11,000 and would decrease the raw material inventory with $87,000.

The journal entry would be as under:

Dr Work In Progress                 $76,000

Dr Manufacturing Overhead    $11,000

Cr Raw Material  Inventory               $87,000

Part 3: Total labor wages of $128,500 were paid in cash. Of this amount, $103,000 was for direct labor and the remainder was for indirect labor.

The direct cost are allocated to the work in progress and indirect costs are allocated to manufacturing overheads.

The journal entry would be as under:

Dr Work In Progress                 $128,500

Dr Manufacturing Overhead    $103,000

Cr Cash Account                                 $231,500

Part 4: Depreciation of $190,000 was incurred on factory equipment.

The depreciation of the factory equipment is an indirect cost and all the indirect costs are charged to manufacturing overhead.

The journal entry would be as under:

Dr Manufacturing Overhead    $190,000

Cr Cash Account                          $190,000

You borrow $12,600 to buy a car. The terms of the loan call for monthly payments for five years at an interest rate of 4.65 perc
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

$627

Explanation:

To find the answer, we use the present value of an annuity formula:

P = A[1-(1+i)^{-n} /i]

Where:

  • P = Present value of the investment
  • A = Value of the annuiry
  • i = interest rate
  • n = number of compounding periods

Now, we plug the amounts into the formula:

12,600 = A[1-(1+0.0465)^{-60} /0.0465\\]

12,600 = A (20.09870355)

A = 12,600/20.09870355

A = 627

Thus, the value of the monthly payments is $627
