                                               Company        East         Central         West

Sales                                    $ 1,500,000  $350,000  $620,000  $530,000

Variable expenses                   655,500     154,000      241,800    259,700

Contribution margin                 844,500  $196,000   $378,200  $270,300

Traceable fixed expenses        819,000    294,000    329,000     196,000

Non-traceable fixed expenses 110,000

Net operating income (loss) $ (84,500)  $(98,000)    $49,200    $74,300

2. Decrease in net operating loss = $45,200

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Wingate's most recent monthly contribution format income statement:

Sales                                    $ 1,500,000

Variable expenses                   655,500

Contribution margin                 844,500

Fixed expenses                       929,000

Net operating income (loss) $ (84,500)

Additional data:

Division                                       East        Central         West

Sales                                   $ 350,000  $ 620,000   $ 530,000

Variable expenses as

 a percentage of sales                44 %           39 %            49 %

Traceable fixed expenses $ 294,000  $ 329,000   $ 196,000

Implementation of the proposal:

Sales for West = $604,200 ($530,000 * 1.14)

Traceable fixed expenses for West = $225,000 ($196,000 + 29,000)

Contribution format income statement segmented by divisions:

                                               Company        East         Central         West

Sales                                    $ 1,574,200  $350,000  $620,000  $604,200

Variable expenses                   655,500     154,000      241,800    259,700

Contribution margin                  918,700  $196,000   $378,200  $344,500

Traceable fixed expenses        848,000   294,000    329,000    225,000

Non-traceable fixed expenses 110,000

Net operating income (loss) $ (39,300)  $(98,000)    $49,200   $119,500

Decrease in net operating loss = $45,200 ($84,500 - 39,300)

Consider a two-step mortgage for $150,000, 30 years, monthly payments, an initial interest rate of 5%, a cap of 5%, and a single
gladu [14]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

This 2-step mortgage problem requires a 2-step solution.

To solve for the PMT for the last 23 years of the loan, we first need to know what the principal is at the end of the 7th year.

Thus, step I uses the initial info to solve for the PMT for each month of the first 7 years. N=360, I/Y=5(%)/12 = 0.416667(%), PV=150,000, => PMT = 805.

The discount rate will change to 5% index rate plus 2% margin = 7% at the beginning of the 8th year.

In Step II we first determine the remaining balance at the end of year 7. This requires using the amortization worksheet.

On the TI BA II Plus, AMORT is the secondary function of PV.

Set P1, the periods at which the calculations begin, equal to 1. We cursor down to P2, which is the last period of the calculation, and set it equal to 84. Cursoring down once again, we see that BAL at month 84 = 131,917.52.  

Going back to the TVM row, we set PV remaining at the end of 23 years = 131,917.52. I/Y is calcluated as 5(%) index rate plus 2(%) margin =7%; dividing 7(%) by 12 = 0.583333(%).  N=360-84 = 276 months left.

Finally, we solve for PMT = 962.89.

You expect that Bean Enterprises will have earnings per share of $2 for the coming year. Bean plans to retain all of its earning
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

C) $27.75

Explanation:

Earnings:

2.00 x 20% = 0.4 (2.00 + 0.40 = 2.40)

2.40 x 20% = 0.48 (2.40 + 0.48 = 2.88)

2.88 x 20% = 0.576 (2.88 + 0.576 = 3.456)

3.46 x 10% = 0.346 (3.46 + 0.346 = 3.806)

3.80 x 10% = 0.38 (3.80 + 0.38 = 4.18)

Dividends:  

3.46 x 50% = 1.73

3.80 x 50 % = 1.90

4.18 x 75% = 3.135 ( 50% + 25% = 75%)

P0 = 1.73/[(1.12)^4] + 1.90/[(1.12)^5] + (3.14/(0.12 - 0.05))/1.125

     = 27.63

Therefore, If Bean's equity cost of capital is 12%, then the price of a share of Bean's stock is closest to $27.75
