Answer:

EXTERNAL FINANCING NEEDED IS $383.736

Explanation:

For calculating the external financing , we first have to take out what the sales , cost , asset , liability will be when the sales of the company increases by 17%, so now we have to calculate all the values -

   SALES    = $11,100 X 1.17  ( multiplying by 17% because of increase in sale)

                  = $12,987  

   COST = $7900 X 1.17  (multiplying by 17%)

              = $9243

INCOME BEFORE TAX = SALES - COST

                                       = $12,987 - $9243

                                       = $3744

TAXES AT 24% ON TAXABLE INCOME OF $3744

             = .24 X $3744 =$ 898.56

Now subtracting this amount from taxable income

$3744 - $898.56 = $2,845.44

Next step would be of paying dividend payout ratio from it

40% of $2,845.44 = .40 x $2845.44

= $1138.176

RETAINED EARNINGS = Taxable income - Dividend payout

                                     = $2845.44 - $1138.176

                                     = $1707.264

NOW TOTAL ASSETS WOULD BE = $15,600(5400+10200) X 1.17

                                                         = $18,252

IT IS GIVEN IN THE QUESTION THAT COST, ASSET, LIABILITY(CURRENT) ARE ALL PROPORTIONAL TO SALES.

CURRENT LIABILITY = $3300 X 1.17

                                   = $3861

TOTAL COST = LONG TERM LIABILITY + CURRENT LIABILITY

                       =$4820 + $3861

                      = $8681

TOTAL EQUITY EQUAL = $7480 + $1707.264 (RETAINED EARNINGS)

                                        = $9187.264

EXTERNAL FINANCING = ASSET - LIABILITY - EQUITY

                         = $18,252 - $8681 - $9187.264

                         =    $383.736

Tops Co. purchases equipment for $12,000 and has been using straight-line depreciation, estimating a 5-year life and $500 salvag
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

According to the straight-line depreciation, this number can be obtained by dividing the difference between an asset's cost and its expected salvage value.

<u>Depreciation</u> = Asset's Cost - Expected Salvage Value ÷ Expected Years of use

Explanation:

In the case of Tops Co., they purchase equipment for $12,000 - $500 of Salvage Value expected ÷ 5  Expected years of use

The estimated depreciation will be $2,300 for 5 years

At the beginning of the third year Tops Co. decided to use the equipment for 6 years and no salvage value.

The remaining purchase value will be $12,000 - $2,300 (x3) = $5,100

Apply again the formula described above and our answer will be:

The revised estimated depreciation is $1,700 for the remaining three years.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The quoted selling price per unit for 500 units should be $20.

<h3>What should be the quoted selling price per unit?</h3>

Profit is total revenue less total selling price.

Profit = total revenue - total cost

$4500 = 500(t - $11)

Where t represents the selling price per unit

$4500 / 500 = t - 11

$9 = t  - 11

t = 11 + 9 = $20
