The percentage improvement in Sales to achieve the desired profit is:

c. 42.86% increase in sales.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Normal profit level = $8 million

Expected profit level = $14 million

Normal Expected

Sales per year $40,000,000 $57,142,857

Cost of purchases 16,000,000 22,857,143

Production costs 10,000,000 14,285,714

Variable costs 26,000,000 37,142,857

Total contribution $14,000,000 $20,000,000

Fixed costs 6,000,000 6,000,000

Profit level $8,000,000 $14,000,000

Expected Contribution = Expected profit level + Fixed Costs

Normal Contribution = 35% of Sales

Normal Variable costs = 65% (100% - 35%)

Expected Contribution = $20,000,000 = 35% of Sales

Therefore, Expected Sales = $57,142,857 ($20,000,000/35%)

Normal Sales = $40,000,000

Expected Sales = $57,142,857

Percentage increase = 42.86% ($57,142,857 - $40,000,000)/$40,000,000

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a. The overall state income tax for the unitary group is $60,474

b. The aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary is $110,000

c. The aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary-overall state income tax for the unitary group is $49,253

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the overall state income tax for the unitary group we would have to make the following calculation:

overall state income tax for the unitary group=state A income tax+ state B income tax

state A income tax=state taxable income*tax rate

state taxable income=$600,000*30.7%

state taxable income=$184,200

tax rate=8%

Therefore, state A income tax=$184,200*8%

state A income tax=$14,736

state B income tax=state taxable income*tax rate

state taxable income=$600,000*69.3%

state taxable income=$415,800

tax rate=11%

Therefore, state B income tax=$415,800*11%

state A income tax=$45,738

Therefore, overall state income tax for the unitary group=$14,736+$45,738

overall state income tax for the unitary group=$60,474

The overall state income tax for the unitary group is $60,474

b. In order to calculate the aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary we would have to make the following calculation:

aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary=aggregate state income tax state A+aggregate state income tax state B

aggregate state income tax state A=0

aggregate state income tax state B=$1,000,000*11%

aggregate state income tax state B=$110,000

Therefore, aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary=0+$110,000

aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary=$110,000

The aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary is $110,000

c. The aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary-overall state income tax for the unitary group=$110,000-$60,474

The aggregate state income tax for the entities if they were non-unitary-overall state income tax for the unitary group=$49,253
