Business
1 answer:
solong [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<h3>Portmann Company</h3>

1. Total variable costs = $89,000,000

Total fixed costs = $40,600,000

2. a Unit variable cost = $89

b. Unit contribution margin = $100

3. Break-even sales (units) = Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $40,600,000/$100

= 406,000 units

4. Break-even sales (units) = Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $45,100,000/$100

= 451,000 units

5. Break-even sales (units) to achieve target profit = (Fixed cost + Target Profit)/Contribution margin per unit

= ($45,100,000 + $59,400,000)/$100

= 1,045,000 units

6. Maximum operating income possible with the expanded plant is:

= $61,900,000

7. Operating income if the proposal is accepted and sales remain at the current level is:

= $54,900,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Sales volume during current year = 1,000,000

Sales price per unit during current year = $189

Income statement is as follows:

Sales                                $189,000,000

Cost of goods sold           (101,000,000)

Gross profit                      $88,000,000

Expenses:

Selling expenses             $16,000,000

Administrative expenses  12,600,000

Total expenses                (28,600,000)

Operating income          $59,400,000

                                      Variable    Fixed

Cost of goods sold           70%        30%

Selling expenses              75%        25%

Administrative expenses 50%        50%

Total variable costs for the current year:

                                      Variable  

Cost of goods sold           70% * $101,000,000 = $70,700,000

Selling expenses              75% * $16,000,000 =     12,000,000

Administrative expenses 50% * $12,600,000 =      6,300,000

Total variable costs = $89,000,000

Variable unit cost = $89 ($89,000,000/1,000,000)

Contribution per unit = $100 ($189 - $89)

Total fixed costs for the current year:

                                          Fixed

Cost of goods sold             30% * $101,000,000 = $30,300,000

Selling expenses                25% * $16,000,000  =      4,000,000

Administrative expenses   50% * $12,600,000 =       6,300,000

Total fixed costs =  $40,600,000

Projected sales for the next year = $202,230,000 ($189,000,000 + $13,230,000)

Percentage Increase in sales for the next year = $13,250,000/$189,000,000 * 100 = 7%

Fixed costs caused by expansion = $4,500,000

Total fixed costs = $45,100,000 ($40,600,000 + $4,500,000)

Variable costs = $95,230,000 ($89,000,000 * 1.07)

Contribution margin:

Sales                                $202,230,000

Variable costs                      95,230,000

Contribution margin        $107,000,000

Expenses:

Fixed costs                          45,100,000

Operating income            $61,900,000

Sales volume = 1,070,000 units (1,000,000 * 1.07)

Contribution per unit = $107,000,000/1,070,000 = $100

Sales at current level:

Sales                                $189,000,000

Variable costs                     89,000,000

Contribution                    $100,000,000

Fixed costs                          45,100,000  

Operating income           $54,900,000

A company estimates that the appropriate discount rate (i.e., the cost of capital) for Project A, Project B, Project C and Proje
aliina [53]

Answer:

a. Project A requires an up-front expenditure of $1,000,000 and generates a net present value of $3,200.

Explanation:

a.

The company should accept project A because it provides a positive net present value of $3,200 that is the highest among all the projects.

b.

When the IRR of a project is lower than the required rate of return of the project, it will generate the negative net present value because at IRR the net present value of the project will be zero and at a higher rate than IRR it will be negative.

c.

The project with a profitability index of less than 1 generates a negative NPV because the present value of future cash flows is less than the initial cash outflow.

d.

Project D also generates a positive net present value but it is lower than project A. So, after comparing the results we will choose the project with higher NPV.

AURORKA [14]

Answer: B. One asset would increase $1,750 and a different asset would decrease $1,750, causing no effect

Explanation:

From the information given in the question, the journal entry at the time of sales will be represented as:

Debit Accounts receivable $1,750

Credit Sales $1750

Now, when the credit receipt is received as illustrated in the question, the journal entry will be:

Debit Cash $1,750

Credit Accounts receivable $1,750

Therefore, one asset would increase $1,750 and a different asset would decrease $1,750, causing no effect.

The correct option is B.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

d. verify that the debits and credits are in balance.

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because without adjusting entries, there is not necessary to adjust the flow of the financial statement.

Option B is wrong because, if we do not give adjusting entries, a debit and a credit entry will not come, and that cannot disturb the income statement.

Option C is wrong because whether the adjusting entries are posted or not, net income will always go to the statement of owner's equity.

The purpose of adjusting entries is to verify that the debits and credits are in balance. Therefore, <em>option D</em> is the answer.
