Answer:
1. 73 %
2. 27 %
3. $60,000
4. Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :
- Reduce the variable costs per unit
- Reduce fixed overheads
Explanation:
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100
Where,
Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs
= $88,000 - $23,760
= $64,240
Then,
Contribution Margin Ratio = $64,240/ $88,000 × 100
= 73 %
Variable Cost Ratio = Variable Cost / Sales × 100
= $23,760 / $88,000 × 100
= 27 %
Break-even sales revenue = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
= $43,800 ÷ 0.73
= $60,000

Answer:
USING LIFO METHOD
Nov 1 Opening inventory 20 [email protected]$19 = 380
Nov 4 Sales 10 [email protected]$19 = (190)
Nov 10 Purchases 30 [email protected]$20 = 600
Nov 17 Sales 20 [email protected]$20 = (400)
Nov 30 Purchases 10 [email protected]$21 = <u>210</u>
Cost of merchandise sold <u> 600 </u>
The correct answer is B
Explanation:
In LIFO method of inventory valuation, most recent stocks are issued first. For instance, sales of 10 units in November 4 will be issued from the November 1 opening inventory and valued at the price of opening inventory.November 17 sales will be issued from November 10 purchases and valued at the price of November 10 purchases.
Answer:
Seasonal.
Explanation:
A trade discount can be defined as a reduction in the price of goods given by a manufacturer to a wholesaler or retailer when they buy units of goods in larger quantities. This ultimately implies that, a trade discount is a percentage reduction in price given by a manufacturer to a wholesaler or retailer in order to encourage them to buy the goods in larger quantities and thus, increase revenue and profits.
Also, a seasonal discount can be defined as a reduction in the price of goods given during off-peak periods (off-season) in order to encourage customers to purchase a particular product.
Hence, when a firm or store offers a price reduction to customers who buy during off-peak periods throughout the year, we say the firm is giving a seasonal discount.
Answer:
Macbeth claimed that he had found the guards covered in the blood of King Duncan.
Explanation:
He further used this to explain how the sight drove him to a point of extreme grief and being so distraught he was overcome with the need to avenge the murder of his King. Using this false story, Macbeth was successful in diverting any suspicion from him without the need of potential suspects -meaning there would be no one to argue or prove their innocence if whoever was blamed for it was no longer living.
