frosja888 [35]

Answer:

1. the net income if selling price increased by 10% would be = $59,700

Net income increased by $31,500.

Explanation:

Given,

Sales = $315,000

Variable costs = $216,000

Fixed costs = $70,800

No. of units = 5,000

                                   Sheffield Company

             Income Statement (Contribution Margin Format)

Particulars                                                $

Sales                                                    315,000

Less: Variable expenses                  <u> (216,000)</u>

Contribution Margin                             99,000

Less: Fixed costs                         <u>        (70,800)</u>

Net Income                                          28,200

Since the selling price increased by 10% and no change in variable costs and volume, therefore, we can get -

<em>Sales = $315,000 x (1 + 0.10) = $346,500</em>

In this case, the net income will be as follows:

Sales                          = $346,500

<u>Less: Variable Costs =  (216,000)</u>

Contribution Margin  =   130,500

<u>Less: Fixed Costs      =   (70,800)</u>

Net Income                =   59,700

Sultan Services has 1.2 million shares outstanding. It expects earnings at the end of the year of $6.0 million. Sultan pays out
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

A) $60.00

Explanation:

to calculate the value of Sultan's stocks, we need to use the growing perpetuity formula:

stock price = dividend / (required return rate - growth rate)

  • dividend = ($6,000,000 x 60%) / 1.2 million shares = $3,600,000 / 1.2 million shares = $3 per share
  • required return rate = 10%
  • growth rate = 5%

stock price = $3 / (10% - 5%) = $3 / 5% = $60 per share

Maslowich

Answer:

C. An auction market

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because merchant wholesalers purchase any products directly from the manufacturers and sell those to the retailers, or consumers. In that case, buyers and sellers do not need to come together to complete a transaction.

Option B is incorrect as the warehouse club is recognized as a retail store where customers can purchase bulk products to reduce the expenses. In that case, only sell is the motive.

Option D is wrong because drop shippers cannot hold the inventory to their stocks. Therefore, customers and manufacturers will not come together.

<u><em>Option C</em></u> is correct because, in an auction market, the buyer and the seller have to come at the same time to complete a transaction. In that market, the buyer will directly negotiate with the seller to purchase a product or something else.
