Answer:
LeCompte Corp.
The profit margin that LeCompte Corp. would need in order to achieve the 15% ROE, holding everything else constant is:
A) 7.57%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Assets = $312,900
Common Equity = Assets = $312,900
Sales for the last year = $620,000
Net income after taxes = $24,655
Expected return on equity (ROE) = 15%
ROE (in amount) = $312,900 * 15% = $46,935
Profit margin = Returns on Equity/ Sales * 100
= $46,935/$620,000 * 100
= 7.57%
b) The expected returns on equity in dollars is equal to the net income. Therefore, we can use the ROE to calculate the profit margin. The profit margin expresses the relationship between sales and profit. It shows the profit made from each dollar sales.
So, the dollar price of the jeans is the nominal variable, and the relative price is the real variable. The relative price of the jeans have been adjusted to inflation. The dollar price hasn't been adjusted for inflation, hence why it is the nominal variable (not adjusted for inflation).
The answers are
Savings accounts become less desirable because interest earned is lower than inflation
Individual purchasing power increases, which results in an increase in demand.
Answer:
$22,780
Explanation:
The computation of the total amount of indirect manufacturing cost incurred is shown below:
= Variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead
where,
Variable manufacturing overhead = Number of units produced × variable manufacturing overhead per unit
= 4,600 units × $1.30
= $5,980
Fixed manufacturing overhead = Number of units produced and sold × fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= 5,600 units × $3
= $16,800
So, the total indirect manufacturing cost is
= $5,980 + $16,800
= $22,780
