Calculate the degree of operating leverage for the company below:Expected Quantity 50,000Total costs300,000Variable costs215,000

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Degree of Operating Leverage = 1.34

The Operating cash flow increases by 12%

The new operating cash flow is $290200

Explanation:

% change in Operating Cash Flow = Degree of Operating Leverage * % change in sales

There is need to calculate Degree of operating leverage first. Degree of operating leverage = Contribution / EBIT

Where Contribution = OCF + Fixed costs / OCF

Fixed costs= Total costs - variable costs = 300000 - 215000

Fixed Cost= 85000

Degree of operating leverage = (250000 + 85000) / 250000

DOL= 1.34

% change in OCF = DOL * % change in sales

% change in sales = (56000 - 50000) / 50000 = 12%

% change in OCF = 1.34 * 12% = 16.08%

New OCF = 250000 * (1+16.08%)

=$250000 * (1 + 0.1608)

=$250000(1.1608)

= $290200

Identify which control activity is violated in each of the following situations, and explain how the situation creates an opport

lesantik [10]

Answer:

1. Once a month, the sales department sends sales invoices to the accounting department to be recorded.

⇒ documentation procedures

Unless all of the company's sales take place only once a month, sales should be recorded as soon as possible. Accounting records must be as precise and accurate as possible, and they must be processed on time. Stacking invoices makes no sense, since sales might be on cash or the collection period might be very short. Who holds the money until the sales records are made?

2. Leah Hutcherson orders merchandise for Rice Lake Company; she also receives merchandise and authorizes payment for merchandise.

⇒ segregation of duties

One single person cannot be responsible for the whole process, since this creates a huge opportunity for fraud. Imagine if the person in charge of the inventory is also in charge of making new purchases, paying for them and reporting ending inventory. No company would be able survive one year, while the person in charge would get rich.

3. Several clerks at Great Foods use the same cash register drawer

⇒ establishment of responsibility

If everyone is allowed to collect money, no one can be responsible for any loss.

On January 1, 2014, Borstad Company purchased equipment for $1,180,000. It is depreciating the equipment over 25 years using the

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)Purchase cost - 1,180,000

Useful life - 25

Annual depreciation = 47,200

Timeline - Jan 1 , 2014 - 2019 = 6 years

Accumulated depreciation = 47200*6=283,200

Carrying value at 2019 = (1,180,000 - 283,200)= 896,800

B) Annual cash flow - 400,000

Annual cash outflow - (295,000)

Net cash inflow= 105,000

Net cash flow for 8 years = 105000*8 = 840000

Since the net cash inflow is less than the carrying value , there is an impairment.

PV value of the net cash inflow at 12% discount for 8 years = 521,602

Impairment loss = $375,198

At December 21.2019

2.) Debit impairment loss - $375,198

Credit equipment - $375,198
