Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Estimated fixed cost = $288,000
Estimated variable cost = $14 per unit
Units expects to produce and sell = 60,000
Selling price = $20 per unit
We first need to calculate the contribution margin:
Contribution margin per unit:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= $20 - $14
= $6
The break even point in units is the ratio of fixed cost to the contribution margin per unit.
Break-even point in units:
= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $288,000 ÷ $6
= 48,000 units
Answer:
1,500 units; 1,000 units
Explanation:
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Fixed cost = $160,000
Sales Mix = 60% of X + 40% of Y
= 0.6X + 0.4Y
So,
Contribution Margin of the Mix:
= (60% × contribution margin of X) + (40% × contribution margin of Y
)
Contribution Margin of the Mix per unit:
= (60% × 80) + (40% × 40)
= 48 + 16
= $64
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= 160,000 ÷ 64
= 2,500 unit
At the Level of break even
:
Unit of X at break-even:
= 60% of 2,500
= 1,500 units
Unit of Y at break-even:
= 40% of 2,500
= 1,000 units
Answer: B. FIFO method
Explanation: The inventory prices of goods as calculated by a firm will remain the same at year end if a firm's inventory price is automatically updated on account of any additional inventory purchase and also if done on a periodic basis. This will occur only when the inventory pricing system is based on First-in-First-out method, whereby the prices of first inventory purchase is first associated or applied on goods sold until the unit in the inventory is exhausted. This allows prices of goods to move based on period of purchase where older prices gets precedence over the newer inventory purchase.
Answer:
$8.93
Explanation:
The payment made to the stockholders is known as dividend.
Price of the stock can be determined by calculating the present value of all future expected dividends using cost of capital.
In this question $1.25 per share dividend is paid and rate of return / cost of capital is 14%, so price of stock will be calculated as follow.
Price of the share = Dividend / Cost of Capital = $8.93
Price of the share = $1.25 / 14% = $8.93
