The net income is the difference between the sales and total cost which comprises of the variable cost and fixed cost. The sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

Let

u = number of units

s = selling price per unit

v = variable cost per unit

F = Fixed cost

I = Net income

I = su - F - vu

but vu = 0.3su

Hence

I = su - 0.3su - F = 0.7su - F

Given that the proposal will increase sales by $12,000,

New sales = su + 12000 ( in $)

and total fixed costs by $8,400

New fixed cost = F + 8400

New variable cost = 0.3( su + 12000) = 0.3su + 3600

New net income = su + 12000 - 0.3su - 3600 - F - 8400

= 0.7su - F

New net income is same as the old net income hence no increase.

Of the following sets of accounting entries, which one correctly records the purchase of a piece of equipment? A : a $15,000 inc

Butoxors [25]

Answer: The correct answer is B : a $5,000 decrease in cash, a $15,000 increase in notes payable, and a $20,000 increase in equipment, all entered on the same date.

Explanation: The option B is correct because we are accounting for a purchase of a piece of equipment. The options in the questions show that the purchase was partly through cash and partly through notes payable. Since that is the case, the appropriate entries should record a cash outflow (credit to cash to decrease it), increase in notes payable as a result (credit to notes payable to increase) and subsequently, increase in equipment (debit to equipment). <em>So, the total credits equal the total debit.</em>
