Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Compute the company's degree of operating leverage for 2019.

This will be:

= Contribution / Pre tax income

= 432000 / 108000

= 4

b. If sales decrease by 5% in 2020, what will be the company's pretax income?

We should note that the degree of operating leverage is:

= % change in pre tax income / % change in sales

4 = % change in ore tax Income / 5%

% change in ore tax income = 5% × 4 = 20%

Company's pre-tax income will be:

= 108000 - (20% × 108000)

= 108000 - (0.2 × 108000)

= 108000 - 21600

= $86400

c. Assume sales for 2020 decrease by 5%. Prepare a contribution margin income statement for 2020.

Sales = 2160000 × 95% = 2160000 × 0.95 = 2052000

Less: Variable cost = 1728000 × 95% = 1728000 × 0.95 = 1641600

Contribution margin = 410,000

Less: Fixed cost = 324000

Pre tax net income= 86400

Vlada [557]

Answer:

$339,600

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the relationship between the price of the equipment and their yearly cash flow. the IRR makes the net present value equal to zero thus, it makes the present value of the yearly cashflow equal to the cost:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 60,000.00

time 12

rate 0.14

$60000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.14)^{-12} }{0.14} = PV\\$

PV $339,617.5275

<em><u>From the given option:</u></em>

$ 339,600 is the closest option.

Answer:

Unitary elastic

Elasticity of demand is unitary elastic because the absolute value of elasticity is equal to 1.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (25 - 15) / 25 = 0.4 × 100 = 40%

Percentage change in price = ($5 - $7) / $5 = 0.4 × 100 = 40%

Elasticity of demand = 40% / 40% = 1

If coefficient of elasticity is equal to 1, demand is unit elastic. It means that a change in price has an equal efect on the quantity demanded. Quantity demanded has an equal and proportional change to changes in price.
