The main aim in which any investor puts his capital into a business is to:

  • Make profit.

<h3>What is an Investment?</h3>

This refers to the value which is given to a certain venture or business in order to yield profit after a period of time.

With this in mind, we can see that several parameters are missing from the question, but expected returns are measures of probability that are used to calculate profit and ROI.

Please note that your question is incomplete so I gave you a general overview to help you get a better understanding of the concept.

Oslo Company prepared the following contribution format income statement based on a sales volume of 1,000 units (the relevant ra
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the relevant range of production is 500 units to 1,500 units, the cost elements are fixed and variable. All the items listed will change as a result of  a 5% increase in sales, only the fixed expense will not be affected when the activity level changes from 1000 units to 1050 units.

The 1050 units represents the units sold where there is a 5% increase.

= 1000 × 1.05 = 1050 units

As such,

Sales (1050 units) = 1050/1000 × $80,000 = $84,000

Variable expenses (1050 units)  = 1050/1000 × $52,000 = $54,600

As such, If the company sells 1050 units

                                     Amount in $

Sales                                 84,000

Variable expenses           <u>(54,600)</u>

Contribution margin          29,400

Fixed expenses               <u>(21,840)</u>

Net operating income       <u>7,560 </u> 

Estimated percent increase in net operating income = (7560 - 6,160)/6,160 × 100%

= 1,400/6160 × 100%

= 22.73%

Job 765               $6,160           $1,848              $3,366                 $11,374

Job 766               $10,944         $3,456             $9,792                $24,192

b)

For Job 765 = $86.167

For Job 765 = $126

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Job                 Direct Materials            Direct Labor          Machine Hours

Job 765               $6,160                         $1,848                      22

Job 766               $10,944                       $3,456                     64

Overhead rate = $153 per hour

Job 765 consisted = 132 units

766 consisted = 192 units

now,

Overhead = Machine Hours × Overhead rate

For Job 765 = 22 × 153

= $3366

For Job 766 = 64 × 153

= $9792

Total job cost i.e  balance on the job cost sheets

= Direct Materials  + Direct Labor + overhead

a)

Job          Direct Materials     Direct Labor     overhead         Total Job cost

Job 765               $6,160           $1,848              $3,366                 $11,374

Job 766               $10,944         $3,456             $9,792                $24,192

b)

Cost per unit = [ Total job cost ] ÷ Total units

For Job 765 = $11,374 ÷ 132

= $86.167

For Job 765 = $24,192 ÷ 192

= $126

BigorU [14]

Post-closing trial balance is a list of <u>permanent</u> accounts and their balances<u> ledger</u> all <u>closing- </u>entries have been journalized and posted.

The post-closing trial balance is a balance sheet report that is made after the closing journal in order to ensure that the total balance in the general ledger is balanced or in accordance with the balance. This method is made in order to convince every accountant or businessman who makes closing journals so that they do not have an error in the calculation difference.

Generally, this balance sheet is able to produce real accounts, namely capital, assets and debt. However, nominal accounts, such as income and expenses, are closed by closing entries. Thus, the next step in making good financial statements is to present a statement of financial position, profit and loss, and capital so that later there will be no calculation errors.
