Leokris [45]

Answer:

1. Equity is the difference between the company's assets and liabilities.

2. D. $83

Explanation:

Req. A

We know,

The accounting equation is

Total asset = total liabilities + total stockholders' equity

Therefore, total asset - total liabilities = total stockholders' equity

So, we can say that equity is the difference between the company's assets and liabilities. However, equity cannot be claimed before the liabilities. Therefore, the option "A" is the correct answer.

Req. B

                          Now Inc.

Less: Dividend (Balancing)                                   <u>     </u><u>(83)</u>

Ending retained earning (Current year)                 $620

Therefore, the option "D" is the correct answer.

Contribution margin is calculated via subtracting the variable cost per unit to the sales price per unit. In equation, we have

Contribution margin = Sales Price - Variable Cost

Contribution margin ratio is calculated via dividing the contribution margin with the sales price. In equation, we have

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales price

Substituting the given values,
Contribution margin ratio for 65$ variable cost = (120-65)/120 = 0.4583 
Contribution margin ratio for 58$ variable cost = (120-58)/120 = 0.5167

<em>ANSWERS: 0.4583 or 45.83% and 0.5167 or 51.67%</em>
