The original data is :

Data for Hermann Corporation

                                          Per unit     Percent of sales

Selling price                         $ 75              100%

Variable expenses                  51                 68

Contribution margin             $ 24               32%

The fixed expenses are $ 75,000 per month and the company is selling 4000 units per month.

Solution :

                                                     Present             Proposed

Sales                                             300000            375000

Less : Variable cost                      204000           275000

Contribution margin                     96000               100000

Less : Fixed expenses             <u>    75000     </u>      <u>     75000    </u>

Net income                                   21000                25000

The net operating income :      Increases          4000

Net operating income = increased sales Net income - current sales net income.

Therefore the higher quality component should be used.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The correct option is d. 5.5.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not properly arranged. It is therefore rearranged before answering the question as follows:

Balance sheet and income statement data indicate the following:

Bonds payable, 10% (due in two years)                              $842,000

Preferred 5% stock, $100 par (no change during year)       220,000

Common stock, $50 par (no change during year)             1,672,000

Income before income tax for year                                       376,000

Income tax for year                                                                  89,000

Common dividends paid                                                         83,600

Preferred dividends paid                                                          11,000

Based on the data presented, what is the times interest earned ratio (rounded to one decimal place)?

Oa. 7.9

Ob. 4.5

Oc. 3.5

Od. 5.5

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

The times interest earned ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Times interest earned ratio = EBIT / Interest expenses ................ (1)

Where;

Interest expenses = Bonds payable * 10% = $842,000 * 10% = $84,200

EBIT = Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for year + Interest expenses = $376,000 + $84,200 = $460,200

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Times interest earned ratio = $460,200 / $84,200 = 5.46555819477435

Rounded to one decimal place, we have:

Times interest earned ratio = 5.5

Therefore, the correct option is d. 5.5.
