Answer:

This machine’s accounting rate of return is 13 %=

Explanation:

Accounting Rate of return: The accounting rate of return is also known as average rate of return in which the net income is proportionate to the average investment.

In mathematically,

Accounting rate of return = Net income ÷ Average investment

where, average investment = (Purchase cost + salvage value) ÷ 2

                                              = ($700,000 + $100,000) ÷ 2

                                              = $400,000

Now, apply the above formula

So the Accounting rate of return = $52,000 ÷ $400,000 = 13%

Hence, this machine’s accounting rate of return is 13 %

Werth Company produces tie racks. The estimated fixed costs for the year are $288,000, and the estimated variable costs per unit
____ [38]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Estimated fixed cost = $288,000

Estimated variable cost = $14 per unit

Units expects to produce and sell = 60,000

Selling price = $20 per unit

We first need to calculate the contribution margin:

Contribution margin per unit:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $20 - $14

= $6

The break even point in units is the ratio of fixed cost to the contribution margin per unit.

Break-even point in units:

= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= $288,000 ÷ $6

= 48,000 units

Forsyth County charges a 7% sales tax. If you bought a new printer form $3250.00, what is the total cost for the printer?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Total cost = $3477.5

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Sales tax = 7%

Cost price = $3250.00

To find the total cost for the printer;

First of all, we would determine the sales tax

Sales tax = 7/100 * 3250

Sales tax = 7 * 32.5

Sales tax = $227.5

Now, we can find the total cost;

Total cost = sales tax + cost price

Total cost = 227.5 + 3250

Total cost = $3477.5
