Answer:
The answer is 51,500 units
Explanation:
Break-even sales is a point in which a business or a firm neither make profit nor loss. Total Revenue equals total cost. Break-even sales help to know the point at which business starts to make profit.
Break-even sales is:
Fixed cost/contribution margin.
Where contribution margin is sales price per unit minus variable cost per unit.
In the question, variable cost are decreased by $3.
So the new variable cost is $21 - $3
=$18.
Contribution margin is $24 -$18
$6
Therefore, The break-even sales (units) if the variable costs are decreased by $3 is:
$309,000/$6
=51,500 units
Answer:
a) diluted earnings per share = 0
Explanation:
Diluted earnings per share (DEPS) is a recalculation of the basic EPS. The difference between DEPS and EPS is, EPS represents the current position of earnings per share. No changes in number shares and/or earnings in the future are incorporated in the basic EPS.
Whereas DEPS is a representation of not only the current position of earnings and shares but also includes the commitments an entity has already made whose occurrence may result in an increase/decrease in the amount of earnings and/or number of shares. For example, in the question Culver Company has issued 10-year convertible bonds which right now have no impact on basic EPS but if in the future these bond holders exercise their right of conversion, this would result in an increase in number of ordinary shares hence decreasing/diluting the basic EPS. The entities use DEPS to show shareholders the impact of such commitments on the basic EPS to improve their decision making.
So in 2017 none of the bonds were converted therefore no diluted earnings per share is calculated in 2017.
If all of the bonds were converted in 2017 the DEPS would have been calculated as follows:
The formula for calculating DEPS is as follows;
DEPS = (Net income + interest savings) ÷ number of ordinary shares + increase in ordinary shares as a result of conversion.
Tax savings as a result of conversion=$128400 ($2140000×6%). Because if bond holders convert into ordinary shares then Culver company will not have to pay them interest and hence the amount of interest is saved.
Increase in ordinary shares upon conversion= 29960 ($2140000÷$1000=2140 bonds. Each bond is convertible into 14 shares therefore, 2140×14=29960).
Now Lets calculate DEPS as follows;
DEPS = ($296000+$128400) ÷ 91000+29960
DEPS =$424400÷120960
DEPS = $3.5
Students are required to evaluate and analyze the data they gather in order to develop explanations for their results.
<h3>What is analyzing data?</h3>
To analyze anything is to break it down into its component parts and look at each one separately. Getting raw data and turning it into information that users can use to make decisions is the process of data analysis. In order to find answers, validate theories, or test hypotheses, data is gathered and evaluated.
Data analysis, according to statistician John Tukey, is:
"Procedures for analyzing data, techniques for understanding the findings of such procedures, methods for organizing the collection of data to make its analysis simpler, more accurate, or more precise, and all the equipment and results of (mathematical) statistics which apply to analyzing data."

thanks, buddy... I appreciate it...:)
Answer:
$735,000
Explanation:
The fair values of the assets may be used as a basis for determining the amount to be recorded for each of the assets.
This will be in a proportional manner such that the higher the fair value, the higher the actual cost assigned and vice versa to the asset.
Hence the amount to be recorded for the building
= 840,000 / (840,000 + 840,000 + 1,120,000) * $2,450,000
= $735,000
