Which of the following statements about the segment margin is not true? In preparing a segmented income statement, the variable

expenses are deducted from sales to yield the contribution margin for each segment. The segment margin is obtained by deducting the common fixed costs that have been allocated to a segment from that segment's contribution margin. The segment margin represents the margin available after a segment has covered all of its own costs. The segment margin is the best gauge of the long-run profitability of a segment because it includes only those costs that are caused by the segment.

Answer: The segment margin is obtained by deducting the common fixed costs that have been allocated to a segment from that segment's contribution margin

Explanation:

Segment margin is referred to the net profit or the net loss that a particular segment of a business makes. Segment margin is used to know segments that are performing well.

It is also used to know the long-run profitability of a particular segment as it shows the margin that is available after the cost has been covered by a segment.

Based on the above illustration, the statement that isn't true will be "the segment margin is obtained by deducting the common fixed costs that have been allocated to a segment from that segment's contribution margin".

This is false as segment margin is gotten after the traceable fixed costs of a segment has been subtracted from the contribution margin of that particular segment.

You own one call option with an exercise price of $30 on Nadia stock. This stock is currently selling for $27.80 a share but is
Shalnov [3]

Answer: 0.755

Explanation:

From the information given, the current per share value of the option if it expires in one year will be calculated as follows:

Firstly, we calculate the present value which will be:

= $28 / ( 1 + 0.05 )

= $28/1.05

= $26.667

The number of options needed will be:

= ( 34 - 28 )/ ( 4-0)

= 6/4

= 1.5

Therefore,

27.80 = (1.5 x Co) + [28 / (1+0.05)]

27.80 = 1.5Co + (28/1.05)

27.80 = 1.5Co + 26.667

1.5Co = 28.0 - 26.667

1.5Co = 1.1333

Co = 0.755

Therefore, the answer is 0.755

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: $2,210,000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the Baldwin company will sell 100 units (x1000) of capacity from their Baker product line and that each unit of capacity is worth $6 plus $4 per automation rating.

We are further told that the Baldwin company will sell the capacity for 35% off. The amount they'll receive when the capacity is sold will be:

The cost per unit will be

= 6 + (4 × 7)

= 34

The worth of the capacity will now be:

= 100000 × 34

= 3,400,000

The amount received will be:

= 3400000 × (1-35%)

= 3400000 × 0.65

= $2,210,000

Family members may lend you money based on
Katarina [22]

Answer :a obligation.

The word obligation means “to be bound to act in a certain way either morally or legally.”

Hence when one is in need of money to start a business, family members may lend the money because they are bound to help you in times of need.  

Loans from family members are usually interest free.

However, if the loan is not repaid, relationships quickly turn sour.

Hence loans from family member must be treated with respect and care, in order to maintain relationships.
