Answer:

Controllable margin= $300,000

Controllable margin in %= 33.3%

Explanation:

Controllable margin is sales revenue less controllable variable costs and fixed cost.

Controllable margin= Sales revenue - controllable variable cost - controllable fixed costs

Controllable margin= contribution margin - fixed costs

                                     = 500,000 - 200,000= 300,000

Controllable margin in %= 300,000/900,000 × 100 =33.3%

Controllable margin in %= 33.3

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The chart below gives prices and output information for the country of Utopia. Use this information to calculate real and nominal GDP for both years. Use 2017 as the base year.

Year                 2016             2017  

                      Price      Quantity Price Quantity  

Ice Cream $7.00        600      $3.00 400

Blue Jeans $70.00          20       $20.00   90

Laptops       $300.00            5       $300.00     5

2016 nominal GDP = $_(7 x 600) + (70 x 20) + (300 x 5)_ =  $7,100

2017 nominal GDP = $_(3 x 400)+(20 x 90) + (300 x 5)_  = $4,500

2016 real GDP = $__(7100-4500)/ 4500)) / change in ice cream price of 50%+ change in blue jean price of (70-20/20) 250%_______

= 0.57/3 = 0.19% growth. Technically the economy was better in 2016 than in 2017.

2017 real GDP = will be same as nominal, hence no growth  since this is the base year

What are the costs associated with operating a franchise.
Debora [2.8K]
7 Common Costs Associated with Operating a franchise

Exactly how much a franchise costs is different for every franchise company out there, but most of them have similar startup costs. While the franchisor will help you with some of these costs — maybe through deals it has with preferred vendors or by lending you the money — the onus will be on you to come up with the funds on your own. And it’s not just funds to build and open your franchise, you will also need funds to run it until it becomes profitable.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common costs associated with opening a franchise.

Franchise Fee

When opening a franchise, it’s important to remember that you are essentially “renting” the brand from the franchise. That brand comes with a lot of support and recognition, but you still have to pay for the privilege of being associated with it.

Franchise fees can be as little as $20,000 or as much as $50,000 or even more. The amount of the fee usually depends on how much you have to do to get the franchise up and running. Franchises that require you to build a location will be more than a mobile or home-based franchise, for example.

Your fee will usually cover the cost of your training and site selection support, hence why the fee is higher for businesses that require a location. Exactly what the fee covers is different for each franchise. Sometimes it will just act as a licensing fee for the rights to use the brand. When you are doing your initial research, be sure to find out exactly what your franchise fee covers.

Legal and Accounting Fees

These fees are on you, of course, but they are well worth it. Any person who is considering purchasing a franchise should absolutely consult with an attorney who is familiar with franchise law. The attorney you hire can review the franchise disclosure document with you and go through the franchise agreement to make sure it’s fair.

Each attorney will charge differently for this and it will largely depend on how much time your attorney has to spend on the documents, but you’ll probably have to budget between $1,500 and $5,000 for this.

It’s also a good idea to start working with a qualified accounting firm as soon as you decide to purchase a franchise. An accountant can help you set up your books and records for the company and can also help you determine how much working capital you’ll require to get your business set up and have it run until it becomes profitable.

Working Capital

Speaking of working capital, this is the amount of cash that is available to a given business on a day-to-day basis. It’s crucial to have enough working capital to cover a given length of time. This could be just a few months, or it could be a few years. It depends on how much time the business will need to start bringing in enough revenue for it to run.

Franchisors do generally provide an estimate of how much working capital you’ll require, but you should back this up with your own research and do your own calculations with the help of your accountant. Talk to other franchisees in the system about how much they needed.

Build-Out Costs

Build-out costs include constructing the building and purchasing all the furniture, fixtures, equipment, signage and anything else related to the building such as architectural drawings, zoning compliance fees, contractor fees, decor, security, deposits, insurance and landscaping. Your franchisor will give you an estimate of build-out costs, which vary widely between franchises.

If you choose a home-based franchise, obviously there will not be any buildout costs associated with it, but there may be other expenses like vehicles.

Supplies

These are all the things you require to run your franchise. Restaurants will need food, of course, but they also need plates, cutlery and napkins. Other franchises will need different things to offer their services. Your franchisor can give you a list or estimate of what you will need to run your franchise.

Inventory

If you are purchasing a retail franchise or some other kind of franchise that sells products, you will need inventory. This is another cost that will vary widely between franchises, but your franchisor should be able to help you with estimates. You might have to purchase between $20,000 and $150,000 worth of inventory depending on the business.

Travel and Living Expenses During Training

Franchisors will provide training for franchisees and often the franchisee’s management team. While the training itself is usually covered by the franchise fee, the travelling and living expenses to go to a franchise’s headquarters for that training may not be covered. Often, training runs from a few days to a week or so and is followed up with more training back at the franchisee’s location.

You’ll want to determine whether travel and accommodation are covered by your franchisor and, if not, work out how much the training related expenses will cost you.

M/b ratios typically exceed -select- , which means that investors are willing to pay more for stocks than their accounting book
skad [1K]

M/b ratios typically exceed one, which means that investors are willing to pay more for stocks than their accounting book values.

The Book value is the carrying amount of the company's assets minus the receivables (such as company liabilities) that exceed common stock. The term book value comes from the accounting practice of accounting for assets at their original costs.

The Book value of a company is total assets minus total liabilities. Total assets and total liabilities are included on the balance sheet of the annual and quarterly reports.

Book value refers to the value of the asset reported on the balance sheet, that is, the value of the asset after the accumulated depreciation has been recorded. Every company owns multiple assets. Therefore, every business also has a book value, which is the present value of the asset minus the liability or accrued debt.
