Answer: the correct answer is a. Machine B
Explanation:
Machine A average rate return
40000 out of 300000. It means that 300000 is 100% and $ 40000 is X. We apply a simple three rule:
40000 X X= 4000000/300000
300000 100% X= 13.33%
Machine B average rate return
50000 out of 250000. It means that 250000 is 100% and $ 50000 is X. We apply a simple three rule:
50000 X X= 5000000/250000
250000 100% X= 20%
Machine C average rate return
$75,000 out of $500,000. It means that $500,000 is 1005 and $75,000 is X. We apply a simple three rule
$75,000 X X=7500000/500000
$500,000 100% X= 15%
The highest average is the one onf Machine B
Answer:
Bad debt expense (w/o allowance) = $2,875
Bad debt expense ( with allowance) = $2,675.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
Net credit sales = $115,000
Uncollectible percentage = 2.5%
So, we can calculate the bad debt expense without Allowance for doubtful accounts by using following method:
Bad debt expense ( W/o allowance) = $115,000 × 2.5%
= $2,875
After Allowance for doubtful expense
Bad debt expense = $2,875 - $200
= $2,675
Answer:
It will take 2.72 years and 32.64 months.
Explanation:
Future value is the sum of principal amount and compounded interest amount invested on a specific rate for a specific period of time.
Use following formula to calculate the time period.
FV = PV x ( 1+ r )^n
FV = Future value = $6,000
PV = Present Value = $4,000
r = rate of interest = 15% yearly = 15% / 12 = 1.25%
n = time period = ?
$6,000 = $4,000 x ( 1 + 1.25% )^n
$6,000 = $4,000 x ( 1.0125 )^n
$6,000 / $4,000 = ( 1.0125 )^n
1.5 = ( 1.0125 )^n
Log 1.5 = n log 1.0125
n = Log 1.5 / log 1.0125
n = 32.64 months
n = 2.72 years
Answer:
The selling sales associate received $2,700
Explanation:
The final number was 180 thousand dollars. Then the MLS chared 5% of the total sale. Thus, 9 thousand dollars is the commission. Now, the commission was divided again and the sales associate received 50% of the listing office's commission. So those 9000 are divided in 2 and we get 4500 which then are divided and the selling sales associate receives the 60% of that amount or 2700 dollars.
The variable cost is calculated as -
Sales - Variable cost = Contribution Margin
Given, Contribution Margin = 25 %
Variable cost = 1 - Contribution Margin = 1 - 25 % = 75 %
25 % of Sales = Contribution Margin = $ 400,000
Sales = $ 400,000 ÷ 25 %
Sales = $ 1,600,000
Variable costs = 75% of Sales = 75 % × $ 1,600,000 = $ 1,200,000
