The formula to find the inflation or deflation rate is (P2-P1)/P1 x 100%, therefore you get 172.2-166.6 divided by 166.6, giving you the inflation rate of 3.36 rounded to two decimal places.

Suppose business decision makers become more optimistic about the future and, as a result, increase their investment spending by
Art [367]

Answer:

$80 million

Explanation:

We know that

Multiplier = (1) ÷ (1 - marginal propensity to consume)

                = (1) ÷ (1 - 0.75)

                = (1) ÷ (0.25)

                = 4

Now the GDP would increase by

= Increase in  Investment spending × multiplier effect

= $20 billion × 4

= $80 million increase

We simply multiplied the investment spending increase with the multiplier effect

Which of the following is a mutually exclusive cost pool used in activity-based cost accounting? a. All of the answers are corre
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The correct answer is A: All of the answer are correct

Explanation:

ABC defines production as consisting of a variety of activities, and it assigns costs to those activities. An activity cost pool is an aggregate of all the costs associated with performing a particular business task, such as making a particular product. By pooling all costs incurred in a particular task, it is simpler to get an accurate estimate of the cost of that task.

Cost pool is created for those costs more closely aligned with the production of goods or services. It is very common to have separate cost pools for each product line. If production batches are of greatly varying lengths, then it has to consider creating cost pools at the batch level, so that it can adequately assign costs based on batch size.

To conclude, the creation of a cost pool and the subsequent assignment of costs will vary according to the length of production and the possibility to discriminate and assign costs.

CM ratio                               63%                     78%                68.1%

Contribution margin     $415,800              $265,200       $681,000

Fixed expenses                                                               ($589,500)

Operating income                                                               $91,500

1. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the company as a whole.

Revenue $1,000,000

<u>Variable costs ($319000)</u>

Contribution margin $681,000

<u>Period costs ($589,500)</u>

Operating income $91,500

2. What is the company's break-even point in dollar sales based on the current sales mix?

break even point = fixed costs / CM ratio = $589,500 / 0.681 = $865,638.77

3. If sales increase by $59,000 a month, by how much would you expect the monthly net operating income to increase?

operating income would increase by $59,000 x 0.681 = $40,179

A company had beginning assets and liabilities were Rs. 100,000 and Rs. 50,000 respectively.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: Rs. 120,000

Explanation:

At the end of the year, both assets and liabilities had doubled. New asset and liability figures are therefore:

Assets = Rs. 200,000

Liabilities = Rs. 100,000

Net income is part of equity and as there is no equity, net income must be the entire equity.

Assets = Equity + Liabilities

200,000 = Equity + 100,000

Equity = 200,000 - 100,000

= Rs. 100,000

From this Net income, dividends were distributed to the tune of Rs. 20,000. This should be added back to see the full figure.

= 100,000 + 20,000

= Rs. 120,000
