Answer: B. : a healthy cash reserve

Explanation:

For the company to be able to declare a Dividend, it's cash reserve needs to be healthy. For this to happen use the following formula;

Free cash balance = Available cash balance - Current Liabilities payable

= 827,000 - 436,000

= $391,000

After taking out the money that will be needed to pay the Current Liabilities, there would be an insufficient balance to pay off the Dividends of $400,000.

Their cash reserve is not healthy enough for the dividends to be declared.

erik [133]

Answer:

Option b. a net operating loss occurs.

Explanation:

contribution margin is simply known to be that portion of sales revenue that is yet to be consumed by variable costs and so is an addition to covering the fixed costs. The higher the contribution margin ratio, the more smaller or fewer the units that will need to be manufactured to become profitable. In short, it is sales revenue minus fixed expenses.

Accounts Payable (Debit)                             96,000

Purchase Discount Income (Credit)                9,600

Cash (Credit)                                                  86,400
