Answer:

Net reduction in retained earning = (304,267)

Explanation:

No. Of shares outstanding of McCaffrey = 280,000 shares

No. Of shares issued as property Dividend = 280,000/20×1 = 14,000 shares.

Market price of shares issued as property Dividend = 14000× 34 = $476,000

Cost of 14000 shares of Harper corporation = $ 326,000/15000×14000= $ 304,267

Net gain = 476,000- 304267 = $171,733

Property Dividend = $ 476,000

So, net reduction in retained earning = 171,733- 476,000 = (304,267)

Note:

Due to gain on issue of shares as property Dividend , retained earning increases . Because these shares are issued at more than they actually purchased.

Due to issue of shares as property Dividend , retained earning decrease because property divided decreases is declared from retained earning .

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The break-even EBIT using EPS is $1,288,000.

Explanation:

the break-even EBIT using EPS is the EBIT that will brings EPS under two different capital structure equal.

Denot X is the EBIT.

* We have:

+ EPS in all-equity firm = X/460,000

+ EPS in levered firm = ( X - interest rate)/230,000 = ( X - 4,600,000 x 14%)/230,000 = (X - 644,000) / 230,000.

* We have the equation:

X/460,000 = (X-644,000)/230,000 <=> X/460,000 = 2.8 <=> X = $1,288,000.

So, the break-even EBIT using EPS is $1,288,000.

<h2>•→ <u>Gross Profit </u><u>Margin </u>•→</h2>

#→<u> </u><u>Gross margin</u> is the difference between revenue and cost of goods sold (COGS), divided by revenue. Gross margin is expressed as a percentage. Generally, it is calculated as the selling price of an item, less the cost of goods sold (e. g. production or acquisition costs, not including indirect fixed costs like office expenses, rent, or administrative costs), then divided by the same selling price. "Gross margin" is often used interchangeably with "gross profit", however the terms are different: "gross profit" is technically an absolute monetary amount and "gross margin" is technically a percentage or ratio.

<h2>•→ <u>Net Profit </u><u>Margin </u>•→</h2>

#→<u> </u><u>The net profit margin</u>, or simply net margin, measures how much net income or profit is generated as a percentage of revenue. It is the ratio of net profits to revenues for a company or business segment. Net profit margin is typically expressed as a percentage but can also be represented in decimal form.
