Answer:

60 percent

Explanation:

Contribution margin refers to the revenue a firm derives after deducting the variable cost it has incurred.

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable costs

Contribution margin or contribution to sales ratio represents the percentage of contribution a firm earns from the sale of it's output.

It is represented mathematically as,

= \frac{Contribution\ margin}{Sales}

Also, contribution margin ratio = 100 - variable cost ratio percentage.

Hence, contribution margin for three departments would be:

A = 100 - 30% = 70%

B = 100 - 40% = 60%

C = 100- 50% = 50%

This represents if sales revenue is 100, contribution margin earned is 70, 60 and 50 under three cases.

Since sales revenue in all three departments is the same, let us assume the sales revenue of a department as y.

\frac{0.70y\ +\ 0.60y\ +\ 0.50y}{3y}    

Thus, weighted average contribution margin would be, 60 percent

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: d. 2.27

Explanation:

Asset Turnover = Total sales / Average Assets

Last years turnover ratio was 2.0 so assume Sales were $20 and Assets were $10 which would give the turnover of 2.0

The new turnover would be;

= (20 * 1.25)/(10 * 1.1)

= 25/11

= 2.27

Mary traded furniture used in her business to a furniture dealer for some new furniture. Mary originally purchased the furniture
likoan [24]

Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

From the time an asset is acquired until the time it is sold, an asset experiences a number of events which causes an increase or decrease of its total value. Th adjusted basis of a given asset, takes the base price of an asset and adjusts it for changes in value reflecting enhancements and or depreciation. For instance, a given asset purchased for $100, depreciates by $10 and has an improvement of $60 would have an adjusted basis of $100 - $10 + $60 = $150.

Now when Mary bought her furniture, the adjusted basis was $20,000. At the time of exchange, the fair market value of the furniture is $4,000 whereas Mary also gave $4,000 to the dealer in the transaction. This $4,000 changes the value ans is added to the previous adjusted basis of $20,000.

Mary's adjusted basis in the new furniture after the exchange is:

= $4,000 + $20,000

= $24,000
