Answer:

-$5,500

Explanation:

The computation of the overall effect on the company net operating income is as follows:

New Variable cost per unit is

= $44 + $11

= $55

Now the new contribution margin per unit is

= $220 - $55

= $165

New unit Monthly sales is

= 7,000 units + 500 units

= 7,500

Now

New total contribution margin :

= 7,500 units × $165

= $1,237,500

And, the Current total contribution margin is

= 7,000 units × $176

= $1,232,000

So, the change would be

= $1,232,000 - $1,237,500

= -$5,500

Answer:

ME should make the investment because it results in not only higher market share but also a $24,000 increase in profits.

Explanation:

Currently ME's marketing expenditures represent 25% of the industry's marketing expenditures and it matches his market share. Using the competitive parity approach, three additional market share points should cost $120,000 ($40,000 for each point) and should increase gross profits to a total of $1,344,000 ($144,000 increase). The difference between incremental revenue and incremental expenses = $144,000 - $120,000 = $24,000.

Which of these factors make it difficult for an employee to get a job offer?
salantis [7]

The factors are: Lack of experience, Economic depression,  Inappropriate comments or behaviour in the interview, Poor use of English language,and  low cognitive skills

In general, employers will hire an individual if they <em>believe </em> that the individual would provide more financial value compared to the amount of his/her salary. They would not necessarily higher you based on your academic performance because often times you would had to start learning everything related to the job again from the scratch.

Answer:

a.

Journal Entries

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $78,200

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $10,800

b.

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $84,000

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $5,000

Explanation:

a.

First, we need to calculate the fair value of each type of shares using the following formula

Fair value  = Numbers of shares x Fair value per share

Fair Value of Common Share = 500 shares x $164 per share = $82,000

Fair value of preferred share = 100 shares x $205 per share = $20,500

Total value of shares = $82,000 + $20,500 = $102,500

Now allocate the Value of $104,000 bases on the fair value

Allocation to

Common stock = $104,000 x $82,000 / $102,500 = $83,200

Preferred stock = $104,000 x $20,500 / $102,500 = $20,800

Now calculate the par values

Par Values

Common stock = 500 shares x $10 = $5,000

Preferred stock = 100 shares x $100 = $10,000

Now calculate the additional paid-in capital

Additional paid-in capital

Common stock = $83,200 - $5,000 = $78,200

Preferred stock = $20,800 - $10,000 = $10,800

b,

Value of common stock = $178 per share x 500 shares = $89,000

Additional paid in capital

Common stock = $89,000 - $5,000 = $84,000

Preferred stock = $104,000 - $89,000 - $10,000 = $10,000
