Forecast usage = 50 %

Actual Usage = 52%

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

3.60

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales units = 1,000

Sales price per unit = $60

Variable expenses = 40% of the selling price

Total Fixed cost = $26,000

Contribution margin per unit:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $60 - ($60 × 40%)

= $60 - $24

= $36

Total contribution:

= Contribution margin per unit × Sales units

= $36 × 1,000

= $36,000

Profit = Total contribution - Fixed cost

         = $36,000 - $26,000

         = $10,000

Degree of operating leverage:

= (Sales - Variable costs) ÷ (Sales - Variable costs - Fixed Expenses)

= (60,000 - 24,000) ÷ (60,000 - 24,000 - 26,000)

= 36,000 ÷ 10,000

= 3.60

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Correct answer is (C)

Explanation:

At the beginning of the year.

Earnings per share (EPS) is the portion of profit earned by the company that is allocated to each outstanding share of its common stock. It is determined by taking the difference between a company's net income and dividends paid for preferred stock and then divided by the average number of shares outstanding. So if stock split occurred when calculating the current year EPS, the shares are treated as issued at the beginning of the year.
