Answer: 1. Degree of Operating Leverage = 4

2. $384,000

Explanation:

1. Degree of Operating Leverage is calculated by dividing the Contribution margin by the Net Operating income.

Now, the Contribution margin is the difference between Price and Variable Cost. This means that if you remove fixed costs from it as well you get your profit.

Therefore 1. can be calculated thus,

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Net Operating income

Degree of Operating Leverage = 960,000 / 960,000 - 720,000

Degree of Operating Leverage = 4

2. When Sales increases by a certain percentage we multiply that percentage by the Degree of Operating Leverage to find out how much Income will increase by.

Because sales went up by 15%, Singh Co. can expect that income would rise by,

= 15% * 4

= 60%.

Now income is Contribution margin - fixed costs so we have,

Income = 960,000 - 720,000

Income = $240,000

An increase of 60% would be

= 240,000( 1+ 60%)

=$384,000

$384,000 is the amount of income that Singh Co. can expect.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$102,000

Explanation:

According to 26 US code Section 704(c) - Partner's distributive share :

Taxable gain to be recognized from sale = Sale value - ( Partner's share * Fair market value )

Brooke contributed the land, the gain realized before the land was contributed = $120,000 - $90,000 will be allocated entirely to her. She will also be allocated 40% of the gain after the contribution was made = ($150,000 - $120,000) x 40% = $30,000 x 40% = $12,000.

So the total gain recognized by Brooke will be $90,000 + $12,000 = $102,000.

Partnerships are pass through entities, the partners are taxed, not the partnership itself.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Realized gain of Shontelle = $332000

Explanation:

given data

adjusted basis = $760,000

mortgage = $192,000

receives cash = $120,000

fair market value = $780,000

to find out

What is Shontelle realized gain or loss

solution

we find here first Realized gain that is express as

Realized gain = Amount realized - Adjusted basis     ..................1

so here Amount realized = (receives cash  + fair market value + mortgage)

Amount realized = (120000 + 780000 + 192000)

Amount realized = 1092000

so from equation 1

Realized gain = Amount realized - Adjusted basis  

Realized gain = 1092000 - 760000

Realized gain =  $332000

so we can say that

Realized gain of Shontelle = $332000
