Answer:
Percentage change in sales = [(Ending value - Beginning value) / Beginning value] * 100
Percentage change in sales = [($67,000 - $62,000) / $62,000] * 100
Percentage change in sales = 0.080645
Percentage change in sales = 8.0645%
Percentage change in OCF = Percentage change in sales * Degree of operating leverage
Percentage change in OCF = 8.0645% * 3.7
Percentage change in OCF = 29.84%
Will the new level of operating leverage be higher or lower?
As the sales increase, contribution margin will remain constant but operating margin percentage will rise. Therefore, this leads to fall in operating leverage.
Answer:
A. Actual Sales - Break-even sales
Explanation:
In business studies, Margin of safety (MOS) is the difference between actual/projected/budgeted sales and the level of break even sales. It is calculated by subtracting break even sales from projected or budgeted sales.
It is usually calculated by a company to know the level of percentage by which sales can drop in that company, before they start incurring losses. IT IS A MEASURE OF BUSINESS RISK.
Answer:
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Number of year = 7
Pre-tax net returns (Fn) = $100
Growth rate = 4% = 0.04
Inflation = 3% = 0.03
Marginal tax rate = 30% = 0.3
Discount rate = 10% = 0.1
Computation:
Fn = Fo(1+g)ⁿ = 100(1.04)⁷
Fn = 131.6
Nominal net returns = 131.6(1.03)⁷
Nominal net returns = 161.85
After tax return = 161.85 (1 - 0.3)
After tax return = 113.30
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.1(1-0.3) = 7%
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 113.30
(1+0.07)⁻⁷
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)
A test balance is used to detect any calculation error that may have occurred within the accounting system. For this, it is sought to verify if the total debits and the total credits are equal, for this the balance of all accounting books is compiled in column totals of both debit and credit. A company usually prepares a trial balance periodically, usually at the end of each reporting period.
In this case, to carry out the trial balance, you must first clarify the name of the company, the title of the trial balance and the date on which the trial balance is prepared, then proceed to list the ledger accounts and enter the debit and credit balances in the respective columns, then the columns are totalized and finally it is verified that the credit totals are equal to the debit totals
