Answer:

Contribution= $214,800

Explanation:

<em>Contribution margin ratio is the proportion of sales revenue that is earned as contribution. </em>

Unit sold = revenue / selling price = 880,000/55 = 16,000  units

Contribution = Sales revenue - variable cost

Variable  admin = 4% × 880,000= 35200

Variable selling = 5× 16,000 = 80,000

Contribution = Sales revenue - cost of goods sold - admin - selling

= 880,000 - 550,000- 35200 - 80,000=214,800

Contribution= $214,800

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

$3,168

Explanation:

We will receive $4000 in future (after 4 years time) which means all we want to know is the amount that we Derek must deposit today.

This present value of the $4000 payment received after 4 years from today can be calculated using the following formula:

Present value = Future Value / (1 + r)^n

Here

Future Value is $4000

r is 6%

n is 4 years

So by putting values, we have:

Present value = $4000 / (1 + 6%)^4 Years

Present value = $3,168

you have $6000 to invest in two stock funds. The first fund pays 5% annual interest and the second account pays 9% annual intere
stira [4]

Answer:

Amount of money invested is $2,000 and $4,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate how much was invested in two different accounts given the amount of money invested in both accounts.

Let the amount of money invested in both accounts be a and b respectively.

Mathematically;

A + B = 6000 ......I

Now we use the formula for simple interest to check the amount that is supposed to be made on Both accounts if he end of a year.

Formula for simple interest is I = PRT/100

Let’s apply this to what is on ground:

5*1* a/100 = 5a/100

Second is

9*b*1/100 = 9b/100

That is 5a + 9b = 38,000. ........ii

Solving Both simultaneously as follows:

Let A = 6000-b from 1

Substitute this into 2

5(6000-b) + 9b = 38,000

30,000 -5b + 9b = 38,000

4b = 8,000

b =$2000

This means a would be 6000 - 2,000 = $4000

4vir4ik [10]

Answer: Option (d)

Explanation:

Under this case the write off will be as follow:

                                                                      Debit         Credit

Allowance for doubtful accounts                25,200  

Accounts receivables                                                     25,200

Here, in this case the Allowance for the doubtful accounts and Accounts receivables are further decreased as the outcome of the transaction made. Thus, there will be no further effect on working capital. Therefore the $30,000 that is bad debt would then be stated as the credit to allowance account. This will then decrease the working capital by $30,000.
