Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

$9,760.48

Explanation:

Present value of annuity due = P* [[1 - (1+r)^-(n-1)] / r] + P. Where P = Periodic payment = $1,000, r = Rate of interest per period 4% (0.48/12), n = number of payments 12 (12*1)

Present value of annuity = $1000 * [[1 - (1 + 0.04)^-(12-1)] / 0.04] + $1000

Present value of annuity = $1000*8.760475 + $1000

Present value of annuity = $8760.48 + $1000

Present value of annuity = $9,760.48

<u><em>Part e</em></u>

Margin of safety in dollars  =    $960,000

Margin of safety in percentage  =  33.3 %

<em><u>Part f</u></em>

Operating Leverage = 3.00

Explanation:

<u>Income Statement :</u>

<em>Sales - Expenses = Income</em>

Note : I have separated Variable and Fixed Expenses

<u>Contribution Margin ratio :</u>

<em>Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales</em>

                                          =  $1,728,000  ÷  $2,880,000

                                          = 0.6 or 60 %

<u>Break-even sales ( units and dollars) :</u>

<em>Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit</em>

                                        = $1,152,000 ÷ $144.00

                                        = 8,000

<em>Break-even sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio</em>

                                            = $1,152,000 ÷ 0.60

                                            = $1,920,000

<u>Margin of safety in dollars and as a percentage of sales :</u>

<u />

<em>Margin of safety in dollars  = Expected Sales (dollars) - Break-even sales (dollars)</em>

                                             =  $2,880,000 - $1,920,000

                                             =   $960,000

<em>Margin of safety in %       = (Expected Sales  - Break-even sales ) ÷ Expected Sales</em>

                                             = $960,000 ÷ $2,880,000

                                             = 33.3 %

<u>Operating leverage</u>

<em>Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ Earnings Before Interest and Tax</em>

                                  =  $1,728,000 ÷ $576,000

                                  = 3.00
