14%

Margin of Safety:

[(current sales - break even)/current sales] * 100

(12900-11094)/12900] *100

(1806/12900)*100

.14*100 = 14%

In supermarket retailing, _____ percent of endcaps should be unadvertised "sale" items that will cause the customer to be alert
Darya [45]

In supermarket retailing, 25 percent of end caps should be unadvertised "sale" items that will cause the customer to be alert when looking at an end caps while travelling through the store.

Explanation:

"Unadvertised" means that only clients who are shopping in this store are advertised.

For example is an item that was marked down in between printings for the weekly store sales flyers.

So the deal may not have made the flyer, but you will see the shelf label that marks the item as discounted once it is in the store.

Unadvertised retail prices play a competitive role. For this model, we produce a balance of rational prospects in which each store randomly announces the cost of one product in accordance with a blended approach.

What is the variable cost of sterilizing an instrument using the new equipment
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Month Number of instruments used Total autoclave cost

January 634 $7,466

February 534 6,526

March 734 7,148

April 934 9,028

May 834 7,744

June 1,034 8,596

July 1,234 10,009

August 1,134 9,924

<u>To determine the fixed and variable cost, we need to use the high-low method:</u>

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (10,009 - 6,526) / (1,234 - 534 )

Variable cost per unit= $4.9757 per unit

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 10,009 - (4.9757*1,234)

Fixed costs= $3,869

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 6,526 - (4.9757*534)

Fixed costs= $3,869

Total cost= 3,869 + 4.9757x

x= number of instruments

ABC Company sold the rights to use one of their patented processes that will result in them receiving cash payments of $10,000 a
BigorU [14]

Answer:

$77,217

$11,289

Explanation:

Fist we will calculate the present value of $10,000 payment

A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity. The value of the annuity is also determined by the present value of annuity payment.

Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow

PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]

Where

P = Annual payment = $10,000

r = rate of return = 10% / 2  = 5%

n = number of period = 5 years x 2 semiannual payments per year = 10 payments

PV of annuity = $10,000 x [ ( 1- ( 1+ 0.05 )^-10 ) / 0.05 ]

PV of Annuity = $77,217

Now we will use the discounting method to calculate the present value of lump sum payment of $20,000

Present value = Future value x Present value factor

PV = FV x ( 1 + r )^-n

PV = $20,000 x ( 1 + 0.1 )^-6

PV = $11,289

Downs Tax Planning Service bought communications equipment for $9,600 on January 1, 2017. It has an estimated useful life of fiv
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

$960

Explanation:

For computing the accumulated depreciation, first we have to compute the depreciation expense which is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($9,600 - $0) ÷ (5 years)

= ($9,600) ÷ (5 years)  

= $1,920

This is a full year depreciation but we have to find out for June 30,2017 i.e 6 months

= $1,920 ÷ 12 months × 6 months

= $960

The same is recorded as an accumulated depreciation
