Nofly corporation sells three different models of a mosquito "zapper." model a12 sells for $50 and has variable costs of $35. mo

Vsevolod [243]

The first step you need to do to solve this problem is to calculate the contribution margin per unit for each model:

Model a12 b22 c124

Sales Price per unit 50 100 400

Less: Variable Cost per unit 35 70 300

Contribution Margin per unit 15 30 100

The next step is to calculate the weighted-average contribution margin per unit for the sales mix using the following formula:

Model a12 CM per Unit × Model a12 Sales Mix Percentage
+ Model b22 CM per Unit × Model b22 Sales Mix Percentage
+ Model c124 CM per Unit × Model c124 Sales Mix Percentage
= Weighted Average Unit Contribution Margin (WACM)

Contribution Margin per unit 15 30 100

X Sales Mix Percentage 60% 15% 25%

WACM 9 4.5 25

Weighted Average Unit Contribution Margin (sum) 38.5

The next step is to find the break-even point using the WACM.

Total Fixed Cost $269,500 ÷ Weighted Average CM per Unit $38.50 Break-even Point in Units of Sales Mix 7,000

The next step is to calculate the number of units of each model at break-even point

Model a12 b22 c124 Sales Mix Ratio 60% 15% 25% × Total Break-even Units 7,000 7,000 7,000 Product Units at Break-even Point 4,200 1,050 1,750

Fields Company purchased equipment on January 1 for $180,000. This system has a useful life of 8 years and a salvage value of $2

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

B. $24,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation per units under the units-of-production method is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($180,000 - $20,000) ÷ (40,000 units)

= ($160,000) ÷ (40,000 units)

= $4 per unit

Now for the second year, it would be

= Production units in second year × depreciation per unit

= 6,000 units × $4

= $24,000

stellarik [79]

Answer:

<h2>The correct answer in this case is option D. or The two indexes measure price changes for different "baskets" of products.</h2>

Explanation:

Both GDP deflator and Consumer Price Index(CPI) measure the variation or fluctuation in the price level of goods and services in the economy.GDP deflator is measured based on the variable baskets of goods and services produced by any country or economy.In other words,GDP deflator is estimated based on the costs or market value of a specific basket of goods and services produced by the country or economy which is compared with the cost or market value of the same set of goods and service in any previous base year.Under GDP deflator,this basket of goods and services varies periodically.CPI also uses the same concept but the specific basket of goods and services used to calculate CPI is fixed and does not vary over time or periodically,unlike GDP deflator.

A. Calculation to Determine the after tax income for Virginia Bond

Using this formula

After tax income for Virginia Bond=Face value*Virginia bonds of comparable risk

Let plug in the formula

After tax income for Virginia Bond=$100,000*4.5%

After tax income for Virginia Bond=$4,500

Calculation to Determine the after tax income for North Carolina Bond

Interest income before tax $4,600

(100,000*4.60)

Less State marginal tax ($230)

(5%*$4,600)

Interest income net of state tax $4,370

($4,600-$230)

Add Federal marginal tax $81

(35%*230)

After tax income for Noth Caroline Bond $4,451

Therefore the the after tax income from each bond will be:

Virginia Bond: $4,500

North Carolina Bond: $4,451

B. Based on the above calculation the options that will provide the greater after-tax return to Tammy will be VIRGINIA BOND reason be that it has high After tax income of the amount of $4,500 compare to Noth Caroline Bond which has After tax income of the amount of $4,451.
