Answer:

A . Should avoid social responsibility whenever it is possible to do so.

Explanation:

Under the shareholder theory as suggested by Milton Friedman, a corporation should not engage in any type of philanthropy, since that is not its purpose. Instead, the corporation can deliver dividends to its shareholders, who then have the option to donate the money for philanthropic purposes, if they choose to do so.

Assume MIX Inc. has sales volume of $1,342,000 for two products with May sales and contribution margin ratios as follows:

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Instructions are below,

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A: Sales $514,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 30%

Product B: Sales $828,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 60%

fixed expenses are $338,000

First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:

Total CM= CM Product A + CM Product B

Total CM= 514,000*0.3 + 828,000*0.6= $651,000

The operating income is calculated deducting from the total contribution margin the fixed costs:

Operating income= 651,000 - 338,000= 313,000

The average weighted contribution margin is calculated using the contribution margin ratio per product and the sales mix.

Sales mix:

Product A= 514,000/1,342,000= 0.38

Product B= 828,000/1,342,000= 0.62

Weighted average contribution= contribution margin ratio*sales mix

Product A= 0.3*0.38= 0.114

Product B= 0.6*0.62= 0.372

Total= 0.486

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 0.486= 48.6%

Finally, we can calculate the break-even point in units:

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (units)= 338,000/ 0.486= $695,473.25

Which two of the three financial statements would you find Net Income on?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

C) Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement

Explanation:

The Income Statement shows a clear separate entry for the Net income which is calculated after all the deductions and additions.

Net Income is the first balance shown on the cash flow statement after which the calculations are carried out to find the flow of cash in and out of the company.

Net income is also shown in the Balance Sheet but not separately but together with retained earnings. It is added to the retained earnings and the amount is shown as a whole amount of retained earnings or shown as a change in equity.

So best answer is C because the question asked is where would you find Net Income on?

Meaning separately. So it is separately present on Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement.

Otherwise it is present on all three statements ( on balance sheet as part of retained earnings or equity).
