Answer:

1.  The price of a beignet is $3.00 in 2011 and Maria's wage is $27.00 per hour in 2011.

2. The price of a paperback novel is 3 beignets in 2011 and Maria's wage is 9 beignets per hour in 2011.

3. 3 Beignets

4. increases and remains the same

Explanation:

1.  Nominal value is the value of a product based on the money of the day that we see. The price of a beignet is $3.00 in 2011 and Maria's wage is $27.00 per hour in 2011 are the values of the product and wage quoting the money of the day.

2. The real value of a varaible is the value in terms of the value of some other goods. In this case Paperback and Maria's wage are valued in terms of beignets.

3. The relative price of paperback is valued in terms of beignets. So if a beignet costs $6 and a paperback novel is $18. The relative price of a paperback novel will be three times the cost of beignet, since a beignet costs $6.

4. Between 2011 and 2016, the nominal value of Maria's wage increases and the real value of her wage remains the same.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a.  450 tours per month

b.  $850 per month

c.  CM Ratio = 0.7

d.  

1.  Increase

2.  Decrease

3.  No Effect

Explanation:

<u>The questions are:</u>

<u>a. Compute the average number of tours the company must conduct per month to break even</u>

<u>b. Compute the average sales revenue needed per month to produce a target average profit of $53,200</u>

<u>c. Calculate the contribution margin ratio. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)</u>

<u>d. Determine whether the actions that follow will increase, decrease, or not affect the company's break-even point. </u>

<em>1. A decrease in tour prices.</em>

<em>2. The termination of a salaried clerk (no replacement is planned).</em>

<em>3. A decrease in the number of tours sold.</em>

<u />

<u />

<u>Solution:</u>

a.

Selling Price = 190

VC = 57

Unit Contribution Margin = $133

Fixed Cost = 718,200 yearly, so monthly is:

718,200/12 = 59,850

Break even occurs when by selling tours they will cover monthly fixed cost of 59,850 [each tour will get 133], thus:

59,850/133 =  <u>450 tours per month</u>

<u></u>

b.

718,200 FC yearly, means, monthly:

718,200/12 = $59,850

Profit needed 53,200, so we would need to cover:

53200+59850 = $113,050

Each tour gives Unit CM to be $133, so we would need revenue of:

Rev = 113,050/133 = <u>$850</u>

<u></u>

c.

Contribution margin ratio is the quotient of difference in sales and var expenses to sales.

So,

CM Ratio = (Sales - Var Exp) / Sales

CM Ratio = (190 - 57) / 190 = 0.7

d.

1.

If the tour prices, decrease, there will be less revenue coming in so the break even point would go higher.

So, break even point will increase

2.

If a salaried clerk is terminated, it will decrease the salary costs of the company. This is decrease the fixed costs of the company (annual wages and salaries), thus it will be easier to cover the new, lower, fixed costs. Thus, the break even point will decrease

3.

A decrease in number of tours sold would proportionally change the variables and other costs and revenues associated. If you look at the calculation above, you will see that "number of tours" won't affect the Break Even Point. Thus, this action will create "no effect".

Rey Company’s single product sells at a price of $216 per unit. Data for its single product for its first year of operations fol
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1. Using Absorption Costing

Income Statement

Sales    20,000 X $216                             = $4,320,000

Less: Cost of Goods Sold (Note 1)            =($1,240,000)

Gross Margin                                             = $3,080,000

Less: Operating Expenses

Selling and Administrative Expense         = ($560,000)

(Note 2)                                                        

Net Income                                                  = $2,520,000

Note:

  1. Cost of goods Sold = All the direct variable cost + direct fixed cost = Direct materials + Direct Labor + Direct Overhead = $20 +$28 + $6 = $54 per unit, Total = $54 X 20,000 units = $1,080,000 + Fixed cost = $160,000 = $1,240,000
  2. Selling And Administrative Expense = Variable + Fixed, Variable = $18 X 20,000 units = $360,000, Fixed Expenses = $200,000, Total = $560,000

2. Using Variable Statement

Sales    20,000 X $216                             = $4,320,000

Less: Variable Costs

Direct Material $20 X 20,000                    = ($400,000)

Direct Labor  $28 X 20,000                       = ($560,000)

Variable Overhead $6 X 20,000               = ($120,000)

Variable Selling Expense $18 X 20,000    = ($360,000)

Contribution Margin                                     = $2,880,000

Less: Fixed Costs

Fixed Overhead                                            = ($160,000)

Fixed Selling & Administrative                     = ($200,000)

Net Income                                                    = $2,520,000

Note: Under Variable Statement first variable expenses are deducted to get the value of contribution, and then fixed expenses are deducted to get net income, whereas in absorption costing firstly manufacturing expenses are deducted to get gross margin and then operating expenses like selling and administrative expenses are deducted to get the net income.

But Net income is same in both cases.

Our company manufactures and sells calculators for $90 each. A major University has offered us $70 per calculator for a one-time
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Increase in operating income by $5,000

Explanation:

Firstly, we shall compute the additional cost of this order,

Variable Cost = Direct material + Direct Labor + Variable factory overhead

= $25 + $20 + $15 = $60

Note: Fixed cost will not form part of this decision, as the company has additional capacity lying idle, thus no additional fixed cost will be incurred, and the fixed cost allocated i.e. $12 per unit is not relevant, as is just allocation and not incurred, it is a kind of sunk cost allocated.

Relevant cost = $60 per unit

Selling price per unit = $70 per unit

Contribution to profit = $70 - $60 = $10 per unit

Total increase in operating income = $10 \times 500 = $5,000

Thus operating income will increase by this amount.

Increase in operating income by $5,000
