Answer:
$11,200
Explanation:
As not mentioned in the account. It is Assumed that the Larry and Bird are related parties and Bird made a sale at a transfer price of $40,000 with $24,000 cost of inventory.
Bird can only recognize the equity up to the ratio of inventory used or sold by the related party.
As 30% was not consumed then consumption will be 70%, so 70% of the income is realized and it will be recorded.
Equity Income = $40,000 - $24,000 = $16,000
Realized Equity income = $16,000 x 70% = $11,200
* There is some ambiguity in the question given.
Answer:
variable markup % = 60%
Explanation:
total units sold 22,000
total costs associated with selling the 22,000 units:
variable production costs $18 x 22,000 = $396,000
variable S&A costs $13 x 22,000 = $286,000
fixed overhead = $20,500
fixed S&A = $36,700
total costs = $739,200
total cost per unit = $33.60
selling price = $33.60 + $16 = $49.60
markup percentage = [(sales price - unit cost) / unit cost] x 100
the total markup % = [49.60 - 33.60) / 33.60] x 100 = 47.62%
but since we are going to calculate the markup percentage solely based on variable costs, then:
variable cost per unit = $31
selling price = $49.60
the variable markup % = [49.60 - 31) / 31] x 100 = 60%
Answer: $2,085
Explanation:
Average monthly sales by the three salesperson are;
$125,000
$144,000
$148,000
Therefore, average total monthly sales by the three salesperson equals;
$125,000+$144,000+$148,000 = $417,000
Average total sales per month = $417,000
Monthly commission percentage = 0.5%
Monthly commission = 0.5% × 417,000
(0.5 ×417000) ÷ 100
208500 ÷ 100 = $2085
Monthly commission = $2,085
