Answer:
Correct option is C
<u>Overall operating income will decrease by $25,000.</u>
Explanation:
Sales ratio = Sales of product 1 : Sales of product 2 = 200,000:300,000 = 2:3
Sum of sales ratio = 2+3 = 5
Common fixed cost:
Product 1 = 2/5×46,000 = $18,400
Product 2 = 3/5×46,000 = $27,600
Total net operating income = Net operating income of product 1 + Net operating income of product 2 = 46,600+(2,600) = 46,600-2,600 = $44,000
Now, comparing with the total net operating income of both the product ($44,000) with only product 1 ($19,000); overall operating income decreases by $25,000 (44,000-19,000)
Answer:
a. Division A = 5.80 %, Division B = 8.95 %
b. Division B is superior. Because, it generates a greater profit margin per each sale made.
Explanation:
<u> a. Compute the profit margins</u>
Profit margin = Profit / Sales × 100
Division A = $134,000 / $2,310,000 × 100
= 5.80 % (2 decimal places.)
Division B = $33,400 / $373,000 × 100
= 8.95 % (2 decimal places.)
<u> b. Based on the profit margins</u>
Division B is superior as it generates a greater profit margin per each sale made.
Answer:
$55,000
Explanation:
A Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) Plan is used in the United States by employers or self-employed persons to provide retirement benefits for themselves and their employees
As stated by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the contributions that can be made to each employee’s SEP-IRA each year is which one is lower between 25% of compensation and the maximum of $55,000 for 2018.
We can then calculate as follow:
1. Jerry's contribution calculation = 25% × $187,600 = 46,900.
2. Maximum allowable = $55,000.
Since a defined contribution plan states that Jerry will contribute the maximum amount allowable and the maximum for 2018 is $55,000, Jerry's contribution will therefore be $55,000.
