Answer:

$312,500

Explanation:

break-even sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio

                             =  $125,000 ÷ 40 %

                             = $312,500

the break-even sales volume for Store A is  $312,500

Complete the balance sheet and sales information in the table that follows for J. White
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Sales $600,000

Cost of Goods Sold $450,000

Cash $28,000

Accounts payable $110,000

Accounts receivable $60,000

Inventory $120,000

Common Stock $140,000

Fixed Asset $192,000

Total Liabilities and equity $400,000

Explanation:

1.To compute the missing amount of sales, we must look for the data given that has something to do with sales. And the two data given that will give us the hint are the Asset turnover and the total asset.

ASSET TURNOVER = Net Sales / Total Asset

1.5 = Net Sales * $400,000

Net Sales = 1.5 * $400,000

Net Sales = $600,000

To check if the answer is correct:

$600,000 / $400,000 = 1.5 <em>which is equal to the data given</em>

<em />

2. The Sales has been computed above and Gross profit margin on sales is present, these are the hint we needed to compute the Cost of goods sold.

Sales  100%

<u>Less: Gross profit margin on sales 25%</u>

Cost of goods sold ratio on sales 75%

Therefore, $600,000 x 75% (ratio on sales) = $450,000

3.ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

It is impossible to compute the cash based on the data given without the accounts receivable. So, let's compute the accounts receivable beforehand.

The additional hint that we have is the Days sales outstanding (based on 365-day year).

  • Days sales outstanding = Accounts receivable / (Annual credit sales / 365 days)
  • 36.5 days = Accounts receivable / ($600,000 / 365)
  • Accounts receivable = 36.5 * ($600,000 / 365)
  • Accounts receivable = $60,000

<em>To check our answer:</em>

<em>$60,000 / ($600,000 / 365)</em>

<em>$60,000 / 1,643.84</em>

<em>36.5 days</em>

<em />

4. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE

Next missing item that we will compute is the accounts payable. The hint that we have that is related to the computation of accounts payable is the Liability to asset ratio.

FORMULA :

Liability to asset ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets

40% = Total Liabilities / $400,000

Total Liabilities = 40% * $400,000

Total liabilities = $160,000

To Check:

<em>$160,000 / $400,000 = 40% which is equal to the data given</em>

<em>Next Step, Compute accounts payable (the only current liability account in the given partial income statement). Long term debt is the only non-current liability on the data given, which means it is the only account that is included in the total liability of $160,000.</em>

<em />

So, $160,000 less $50,000 = $110,000 (accounts payable)

5. CASH

We can now compute the cash based on the accounts already computed above. The additional hint that we have is the quick ratio. Quick ratio is the quotient of Cash & cash equivalent plus Marketable securities (which is not present in the data given, therefore ignore) plus the accounts receivable over the current liability.

Computation:

0.80 = (Cash + Marketable security + Accounts receivable) / current liability

0.80 = (Cash + Accounts receivable) / $110,000

Cash + Accounts receivable = 0.80 * $110,000

Cash + Accounts receivable = 88,000

Cash + $60,000 = $88,000

Cash = $88,000 - $60,000

Cash = $28,000

6. INVENTORY

To compute the inventory, we need the inventory turn-over hint.

Inventory turn-over = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory

3.75 = $450,000 / Ave inventory

Average inventory = $450,000 / 3.75

Average inventory = $120,000

to check:

<em>$450,000 / $120,000 = 3.75 which is equal to the data given</em>

<em />

7. COMMON STOCK

Total asset = Liabilities + Equity

$400,000 = $160,000 +?

$400,000 - $160,000 = $240,000

Equity is composed of common stock and retained earnings. Therefore, $240,000 - $100,000 (Retained earnings) = $140,000 (common stock)

8. FIXED ASSET

It is the only asset account that is missing after we computed cash, accounts receivable and inventory. Therefore total assets less current assets equals fixed assets.

  • $400,000 - ($28,000 + $60,000 + $120,000)
  • $400,000 - $208,000
  • $192,000 (fixed assets)

9. TOTAL LIABILITIES AND EQUITY

Current liability + Non-current liability + Common stock + Retained earnings

$110,000 + $50,000 + $140,000 + $100,000

$400,000

An increase in the supply of grain will reduce the total revenue grain producers receive if.
Bogdan [553]

If the<u> demand curve is inelastic</u>, a rise in the supply of grain will result in a decrease in the overall income received by grain producers.

The ability of firms to enter and exit a market over time means that, in the long run, the supply curve is more elastic.

Two basic economic concepts are combined in the law of supply and demand to explain how shifts in the price of a resource, good, or service affect its supply and demand. As the price rises, supply increases while demand decreases. On the other hand, as the price falls, demand increases and supply becomes more limited.

The degree to which changes in price translate into changes in demand and supply is known as the product's price elasticity.

Basic consumer demand is comparatively inelastic, or less responsive to price changes.

Hi-Tek is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 9 years, because the firm needs to plow
Elza [17]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $16.83

Explanation:

The current price per share can be estimated using constant growth model of  the DDM. The price per share can be calculated using the following formula,

P0 = D1 / r - g

To calculate the price today, we use the dividend expected for the next period. Thus, using the dividend that will be paid at t=11 or D11, we can calculate the price of the stock at t=10. We further need to discount this price using the required rate of return for 10 years to calculate the price of the stock today.

P10 = 6 * (1+0.04)  /  (0.14 - 0.04)

P10 = $62.4

The price of the stock today will be,

P0 = 62.4 / (1.14)^10

P0 = $16.83

What is a conglomerate? a large corporation that produces and sells its goods and services throughout the world the combination
miskamm [114]

Answer:

A conglomerate is a business combination merging more than three businesses that make unrelated products.

Explanation:

A conglomerate is a group of companies with different activities. This business concept spread to Europe from the United States after World War II. The benefits were considered to increase the company's long-term profitability by spreading risk to various business areas.

However, conglomeration often led to an increase in administrative costs. Furthermore, the conglomerate's management rarely had the competence to handle a number of companies in different industries. The conglomerates that were listed on the stock exchange were regularly valued lower than the total market value of the subsidiaries, indicating that the stock market did not believe in the very idea of ​​creating such corporate groups. The risk diversification that the conglomerate was aiming for could equally well be achieved by the individual investor in his own equity portfolio. Therefore, since the 1970s, many conglomerates have split up, and most companies have instead focused on creating competitive advantages through their core business.
