Calculation for the company's contribution margin ratio

First step is to find the Contribution margin using this formula

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin = $1,910,000-$1,319,000

Contribution margin = $591,000

Second step is to calculate for the Contribution margin ratio using this formula

Contribution margin ratio= Contribution margin ÷ Sales

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin ratio = $591,000 ÷ $1,910,000

Contribution margin ratio = 0.309×100

Contribution margin ratio=30.9%

Calculation for Total Variable expenses

Variable manufacturing expense $956,000

Variable selling and administrative expense $363,000

Total $1,319,000

Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 30.9%

Miley, a single taxpayer, plans on reporting $31,875 of taxable income this year (all of her income is from a part-time job). Sh

Brut [27]

Answer: a) $3,640.50

b) $1,825.50

Explanation:

The key thing is to note that tax rates vary per income and various income levels have different taxes. In calculating you add up the maximum of the lower level as you move higher up the classes. Let's solve the question to understand.

Total tax liability when taxable income is $31,875:

Tax rate for,

$0 to $9,225 = 10%

= $9,225*10/100

= $922.50

Her income is still higher so we go to the next class,

$9,225 to $31,875 = 12%

= $31,875 - $9,225

= $22,650*12/100

= $2,718

Total tax liability when taxable income is $31,875

= $2,718 + $922.50

= $3,640.50

Now, if the second part-time job is added then total taxable income is $31,875 + $11,400 = $43,275

We go up the classes again,

$0 to $9,225 = 10%

= $9,225*10/100

= $922.50

$9,225 to $38,700 = 12%

= $38,700 - $9,225

= $29,475*12/100

= $3,537

$38,700 to $43,275 = 22%

= $43,275 - $38,700

= $4,575 * 22/100

= $1,006.5

Total tax liability when taxable income is $43,275,

= $1,006.5 + $3,537 + $922.50

= $5,466

Increase in tax liability = $5,466 - $3,640.50

= $1,825.5

Tax liability will increase by $1,825.50 as a result of the second job.

When a business sells more than one product at varying selling prices, the business's break-even point can be determined as long

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: c. there is no limit

Explanation: There is no limit to the number of products sold at varying prices when determining the business's break-even point. The break even point is defined as that volume of production where total costs (fixed and variable costs) equals total sales (revenue) resulting into a no-profit no-loss situation. As a result, when output falls below that point there is loss; and if output exceeds that point there is profit.
