Answer:

Dollar return of US Bancorp = $7.69

Explanation:

A Dollar return of US Bancorp = $36.19 - $29.89 + $1.39 = $7.69

Total Dollar return of US Bancorp = $7.69 * 200 = $1,538

Percentage return of US Bancorp percentage return = ($7.69/$29.89) * 100 = 25.72%

B Dollar loss of Hilton Hotels = $13.12 - $13.31 = - $0.19

Total Dollar loss of Hilton Hotels = - $0.19 * 300 = - $57.00

Percentage loss of Hilton Hotels = (-$0.19/$13.31) * 100 = 1.43%

C Dollar return of Hilton Hotels = $34.90 - $24.11 + $0.16 = $10.95

Total Dollar return of Hilton Hotels = $10.95 * 250 = $2,737.50

Percentage return of Hilton Hotels = ($10.95/$24.11) * 100 = 45.42%

Erin Shelton, Inc., wants to earn a target profit of $960,000 this year. The company’s fixed costs are expected to be $1,320,000
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

1. Break-even sales = $2,200,000

2. Net Income = $0

3. Sales = $3,800,000

4. See explanation section

5. Margin of safety = $1,600,000

Margin of safety (%) = 42.11%

Explanation:

Requirement 1.

We know,

Break-even sales = Fixed expense ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

Given,

Expected Fixed expense = $1,320,000

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin ÷ Sales Revenue

As we do not have contribution margin and Sales Revenue, we have to use variable costs that is expected to be 40% of sales. Therefore,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Sales (%) - variable costs (%) = 100% - 40% = 60%

Therefore, Break-even sales = $1,320,000 ÷ 60%

Break-even sales = $1,320,000 ÷ 60%

Therefore, Break-even sales = $2,200,000

Requirement 2.

                         Erin Shelton, Inc.

Contribution Margin Income Statement format

For the year ended, December 31, Current year

Sales Revenue                                          $2,200,000 (<em>Requirement 1</em>)

<u>Less: Variable expense (40% of sales)         880,000</u>

Contribution Margin                                  $1,320,000

<u>Less: Fixed Expense                                   1,320,000</u>

Net operating Income                                        0

In break-even sales, total fixed expense = total contribution margin, therefore, no income or loss.

Requirement 3.

We know,

This year, To attain profit, sales = (Fixed expense + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

Given,

Expected Fixed expense = $1,320,000

Target Profit = $960,000

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin ÷ Sales Revenue

As we do not have contribution margin and Sales Revenue, we have to use variable costs that is expected to be 40% of sales. Therefore,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Sales (%) - variable costs (%) = 100% - 40% = 60%

Therefore, To attain profit, sales = ($1,320,000 + $960,000) ÷ 60%

To attain profit, sales = $2,280,000 ÷ 60%

Therefore, To attain profit, sales = $3,800,000

Requirement 4.

Using To attain profit, sales = $3,800,000 (From Requirement 3) to find the net operating income

                          Erin Shelton, Inc.

Contribution Margin Income Statement format

For the year ended, December 31, Current year

Sales Revenue                                          $3,800,000 (<em>Requirement 3</em>)

<u>Less: Variable expense (40% of sales)        1520,000</u>

Contribution Margin                                  $2,280,000

<u>Less: Fixed Expense                                   1,320,000</u>

Net operating Income                                $960,000

Requirement 5.

We know,

Margin of safety = (Current sales - Break-even sales)

<em>From Requirement 1, we get, Break-even sales = $2,200,000</em>

<em>From Requirement 3, we get, Current sales = $3,800,000</em>

Margin of safety = $3,800,000 - $2,200,000

Therefore, Margin of safety = $1,600,000

Margin of safety as percentage = [(Current sales - Break-even sales) ÷ Current sales] × 100

Margin of safety = ($1,600,000 ÷ $3,800,000) × 100

or, Margin of safety = 0.42105 × 100

Margin of safety = 42.11%

Assume you are in the business of producing and selling milkshakes. If you could produce more milkshakes with the same input, wh
poizon [28]

Answer:

Both increases

Explanation:

Suppose a person initially produces and sell some amount of milkshakes with the available resources.

But, if he will be able to produce and sell more quantity of milkshakes with the same level of resources then this will indicates that there is a rise in the productivity of this person and if the number of milkshakes sold increases then as a result profits increases at a same price level.

For Example:

Case 1:

Initially,

Person producing and selling = 20 units of milkshakes at a selling price of $10 each and cost of inputs used in the production = $50

Therefore, Profits = Total revenue - Total cost

                              = (20 units × $10 each) - $50

                              = $200 - $50

                              = $150

Case 2:

Now, we assumed that there is an increase in the productivity of this person. Cost of production and selling price of each milkshake remains the same.

Person producing and selling = 40 units of milkshakes at a selling price of $10 each and cost of inputs used in the production = $50

Therefore, Profits = Total revenue - Total cost

                              = (40 units × $10 each) - $50

                              = $400 - $50

                              = $350

Hence, there is an increase in the profits from $150 to $350.
