Answer:

A). Failed to exercise due care.

Explanation:

As per the given details, Bugle Corp. needs to prove that Dennis & Co. failed to exert the required care which it was supposed to exercise while auditing the financial statements of Stanley Corp. <u>This failure led Bugle Corp. to suffer major losses and thus, they must be accountable for this loss under the general law as they ignored the potential hazards</u>. Legally, this is unlawful as they were expected to ensure that these hazards must have addressed and told Bugle Corp. on time but since they failed, they are guilty of the crime. Hence, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Victoria Company reports the following operating results for the month of April.
forsale [732]

Answer:

Victoria Company

1. No Changes:

Break-even point in units  = 7,398

Break-even point in dollars = $369,900

Margin of safety = $80,100

2. With changes in sales price and costs:

Break-even point in units = Fixed expense/Contribution margin per unit

= 8,220

Break-even point in dollars = Fixed expense/Contribution ratio

= $390,437

Margin of safety in dollars

= $122,563

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

VICTORIA COMPANY

CVP Income Statement

For the Month Ended April 30, 2020

                                    Total       Per Unit

Sales (9,000 units) $450,000   $50

Variable costs           225,000     25.00

Contribution margin 225,000   $25.00

Fixed expenses         184,950

Net income               $40,050

Break-even point in units = $184,950/$25 = 7,398

Break-even point in dollars = $184,950/0.5 = $369,900

Margin of safety = $450,000 - $369,900 = $80,100

Management's decision to reduce selling price by 5%

New selling price = $47.50 ($50 * 95%)

Unit sales = 10,800 (9,000 * 1.2)

                                   Total       Per Unit

Sales (10,800 units) $513,000   $47.50

Variable costs           270,000     25.00

Contribution margin 243,000   $22.50

Fixed expenses         184,950

Net income               $58,050

Break-even point in units = Fixed expense/Contribution margin per unit

= $184,950/$22.50

= 8,220

Contribution ratio = $22.50/$47.50 = 0.4737

Break-even point in dollars = Fixed expense/Contribution ratio

= $184,950/0.4737

= $390,437

Margin of safety in dollars = Budgeted Sales - Break-even Sales

= $513,000 - $390,437

= $122,563
