You run a school in Florida. Fixed monthly cost is $5,435.00 for rent and utilities, $6,171.00 is spent in salaries and $1,545.0

0 in insurance. Also every student adds up to $91.00 per month in stationary, food etc. You charge $734.00 per month from every student now. You are considering moving the school to another neighborhood where the rent and utilities will increase to $11,679.00, salaries to $6,974.00 and insurance to $2,408.00 per month. Variable cost per student will increase up to $158.00 per month. However you can charge $1,054.00 per student. At what point will you be indifferent between your current mode of operation and the new option?

Answer:

31

Explanation:

The calculation of indifferent between your current mode of operation and the new option is shown below:-

Current Operation

Contribution Margin = Monthly Fees - Variable Cost

= $734.00 - $91.00

= $643.00

Total Fixed Cost = Rent and Utilities + Salaries + Insurance

= $5,435.00 + $6,171.00 + $1,545.00

= $13,151.00

New Operation

Contribution Margin = Monthly Fees - Variable Cost

= $1,054.00 - $158.00

= $896.00

Total Fixed Cost = Rent and Utilities + Salaries + Insurance

= $11,679.00 + $6,974.00 + $2,408.00

= $21,061.00

Here we will assume the indifferent number of students will be X

So,

Income under current option = Income under new option

$643.00 × X - $13,151.00 = $896.00 × X - $21,061.00

$253X = $7,910

X = $7,910 ÷ $253

= 31.26

or

= 31

Over the years, O'Brien Corporation's stockholders have provided $20,000,000 of capital, when they purchased new issues of stock
velikii [3]

Answer:

The answer is: O'Brien's MVA is $12,000,000

Explanation:

We first take the total book value of equity $20,000,000

Then e calculate the market value of the company (stock price per share times shares outstanding) = $32 per share x 1,000,000 shares = $32,000,000

The market value added (MVA) is the difference between market value and equity value:

MVA = $32,000,000 - $20,000,000 = $12,000,000

Explanation:

No specific question was asked, I think the question to be asked are the following

Cost Data

$

Materials. 249,480

Labour. 67,536

Overhead. 142,128

----------------

Total. 459,144

Beginning work in process June 1. 0

Unit started into production. 27,720

--------------

Total. 27,720

Less: Ending work in process unit. 2,520

--------------

Unit accounted for transferred out. 25,200

----------------

To determine the equivalent unit of production

Materials. Conversion cost

$ $

Transferred out. 25,200. 25,200

Work in process( 2,520 × 100%) 2,520

(2,520 × 40%) 1,008

------------- ------------------

Total. 27,720. 26,208

----------------- --------------------

To compute the unit cost of Production

Unit materials cost = Total materials cost / Equivalent cost

= 249,480/ 27,720

= $9

Unit conversion cost = Labour + Overhead / Equivalent cost

67,536 + 142,128

= 209,664 / 26,208

= $8
