sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Blossom Automotive have long-term debt of <u>$174,321</u>.

Explanation:

This can be estimated using the following accounting equation:

Total Assets = Shareholders' equity + Total liabilities ............... (1)

Where;

Total Assets = cash balance + inventory + goodwill and other assets + net plant and equipment + accounts receivable + other current assets = $23,015 + $214,500 + $78,656 + $714,100 + $141,258 + $11,223 = $1,182,752

Shareholders' equity = common stock + retained earnings = $311,900 + $512,159 = $824,059

Short-term liabilities = accounts payable + short-term notes payable = $163,257 + $21,115 = $184,372

Total liabilities = Short-term liabilities + long-term debt = $184,372 + long-term debt

Substituting the relevant values into equation (1) and solve for long-term debt, we have:

$1,182,752 = $824,059 + $184,372 + long-term debt

long-term debt = $1,182,752 - $824,059 - $184,372

long-term debt = $174,321

Therefore, Blossom Automotive have long-term debt of <u>$174,321</u>.

Bruce, a buyer, contracted with Steve, a seller, to buy ten dozen bicycle tires for $960. Payment was due thirty days after deli
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

b. Hold the tires with reasonable care for disposition as the seller instructs.

Explanation:

When goods are non-conforming to contract, the buyer has the right to reject the goods. The seller also has the right to cure the defect or ensure conformity.

1. Buyer's right to reject: In this case the buyer has the right to reject the goods on inspection, and notify the seller within a reasonable amount of time.

2. Seller's right to cure: The seller has the right to cure defect on the goods, and this can be done where there is still time to rectify the defects noticed by the buyer. In this case, the buyer is not due to pay for the goods for the next 30 days.

The seller still has the opportunity to meet the contract standard and close the deal.

So option b is correct. The buyer holds the goods pending decision of seller to either cure defects on goods or retrieve the goods.

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for S25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

1A. Compute the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.

  • CM ratio = 2.5
  • break even point = 21,000 balls

1B. Compute the degree of operating leverage at last year.

  • 31.82%

2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that variable expenses will increase by $3 per ball next year. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25, what will be the new CM ratio and break-even point in balls?

  • CM ratio = 3.57
  • break even point = 30,000 balls

3. Refer to the data in (2) above. If the expected change in variable expenses takes place, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $90,000, last year?

  • 42,858 balls

4. The president feels that the company must raise the selling price of its basketballs. If Northwood Company wants to maintain the same CM ratio as last year, what selling price per ball must it charge next year to cover the increased labor costs?

  • new price of $28 per ball

5. The company is discussing the construction of a new, automated manufacturing plant. The new plant would slash variable expenses per ball by 40%, but it would cause fixed expenses per year to double. If the new plant is built, what would be the company's new CM ratio and new break-even point in balls?

  • CM = 1.32
  • 26,250 balls

6.a. If the new plant is built, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $90,000, as last year?

  • 31,875 balls

6.b. Assume the new plant is built and that next year the company manufactures and sells 30,000 balls (the same number as sold last year). Prepare a contribution format income statement and compute the degree of operating leverage.

Income Statement

Total revenue $750,000

Variable expenses <u>($270,000) </u>

Contribution margin $480,000

Fixed expenses <u>($420,000 )</u>

Net operating income $60,000

Degree of operating leverage = 60.87%

6.c. If you were a member of top management, would you have been in favor of constructing the new plant?

  • If you cannot avoid paying the salary raise, then the company needs to carry on the new plant project.

Explanation:

sales price per ball = $25

variable expenses: $15 per unit

  • direct labor $9
  • other variable costs $6

CM ratio = net sales / CM = $750,000 / $300,000 = 2.5

break even point = total fixed costs / CM per unit = $210,000 / $10 = 21,000 balls

degree of operating leverage = fixed costs / total costs = $210,000 / $660,000 = 31.82%

new CM ratio = net sales / CM = $750,000 / $210,000 = 3.57

break even point = total fixed costs / CM per unit = $210,000 / $7 = 30,000 balls

sales level for $90,000 profit = ($210,000 + $90,000) / $7 = 42,857.14 ≈ 42,858 balls

CM ratio (new plant) = net sales / CM = $750,000 / $570,000 = 1.32

break even point = total fixed costs / CM per unit = $420,000 / $16 = 26,250 balls

sales level for $90,000 profit = ($420,000 + $90,000) / $16 = 31,875 balls
