Answer:

1. $1,160,000

2. $534,600

Explanation:

1. Computation for the amount of total dollar sales

Using this formula

Total dollar sales=Fixed costs plus pretax income / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Total dollar sales=$626,400 / 54%

Total dollar sales =$1,160,000

($266,000+$360,400=$626,400)

Therefore the amount of total dollar sales is $1,160,000

2.Computation for the amount of total variable costs.

Sales $1,160,000

Less:

Fixed costs ($265,000)

Pretax income ($360,400)

Variable costs $534,600

Therefore the amount of total variable costs is $534,600

vesna_86 [32]

Answer: $105,000

Explanation:

Given, unrecognized prior service costs granted = $600,000

service years in future = 2,000

service years this year = 350

Mistor's unrecognized prior service cost amortization for the year = (unrecognized prior service costs granted) ÷ (service years in future) ×(service years this year )

= $(600000÷2000×350)

= $105,000

Hence, Mistor's unrecognized prior service cost amortization for the year = $105,000
