Answer:
1. B. 3.14
2. C. 1.12
Explanation:
1. Times Interest Earned ratio
Measures how well a company is able to cover it's debt obligations using it's earnings.
The formula is simply,
= Earning before Interest and Tax / Interest Expense
Therefore,
Times Interest Earned ratio = 116/37
= 3.14
HHF's times interest earned ratio is Option B, 3.14.
2. Debt to Equity Ratio
This ratio compares the debt used to fund a company vs it's equity. It measures how much of either way used to fund the company.
The formula is,
= Total Debt / Total Equity
= 540/484
= 1.12
HHF's Debt to Equity ratio is 1.12, Option C.
Answer:
1. groups costs into meaningful buckets that are then distributed based on the activity or product they support.
Explanation:
Activity based costing basically categorizes various overheads into different activities, that leads to charge of overheads based on different activities.
In this manner overheads that shall be charged on some standard products based on the activities involved is charged accordingly, and not based on standard overhead allocation rate.
Basically the overheads are divided into various activities and then distributed to each product based on the volume of activity in the manufacturing process of such activity.
Answer:
a. $365,000
b. $346,800
Explanation:
The computations are shown below:
a. For product cost:
= Direct materials used + Direct labor + manufacturing overhead
where,
Manufacturing overhead = Indirect labor + Property taxes, factory + Depreciation of production equipment
= $45,000 + $18,900 + $42,200
= $106,100
So, the product cost would be
= $168,100 + $90,800 + $106,100
= $365,000
b. For period cost
= Marketing salaries + Administrative travel + Sales commissions + Advertising
= $51,700 + $100,800 + $50,000 + $144,300
= $346,800
Answer:
A.$12,000
B.$8000
C.MRPL/PL = 3
MRPK/PK =2
D) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.
Explanation:
(a) The Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRPL) can said to be the additional revenue generated when an additional worker is employed.
$66,000 - $54,000 = $12,000
Thus, MRPL is 12,000
b) Marginal revenue product of capital is
( 62000 - 54000)= $8000
c) MRPL/PL = 12000/ 4000= 3
MRPK/PK = 8000/4000=2
Therefore Since these two ratios are not equal it means the firm is not using the least cost combination of inputs.
d) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.
