Answer:
$243,900
Explanation:
Calip corporation reported the following results for the month of October
Sales= $413,000
Cost of goods sold= $169,100
Total variable sling expenditure= $20,700
Total fixed selling expense= $17,900
Total variable administrative expense= $13,100
Total fixed administrative expense= $30,400
The contribution margin can be calculated by subtracting the total cost of goods sold from the sales
= $413,000-$169,100
= $243,900
Hence the contribution margin for October is $243,900
decreasing profit margins
Answer:

As there is a payment of dividend so it would reduce the stockholder equity by $50,000
And, there is an increase in account receivable for rendering the service that means the service revenue would increased so the stockholder equity would increased by $32,000
Now the net effect would be
= -$50,000 + $32,000
= -$18,000
