Answer:
EPS of Plan I = $3.19
EPS of Plan II = $2.82
Explanation:
Under Plan I:
Plan I's Earning per share (EPS) = EBIT ÷ Number of shares = $575,000 ÷ 180,000 = $3.19
Under Plan II:
Interest = $2,600,000 × 8% = $208,000
Earning after Interest = EBIT - Interest = $575,000 - $208,000 = $367,000
Plan II's EPS = $367,000 ÷ 130,000 = $2.82
Sometimes when people are under pressure they forget things that they have memorized. Sometimes its answers for a test and sometimes they forget how to walk, your body will just shut down under pressure.
Just try to relax and think of something else of a few, then move on to the next question, it will come back to you.
Answer:
D. The breakeven point decreases.
Explanation:
Breakeven point of a business is defined as the point where it's total cost and total revenues are equal, at this point there is no gain or loss. Hen revenue is above this point profit is made, and when revenue is below this point there is loss.
The formula for break-even is
Breakeven point= Total fixed cost/(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)
Since sales price and variable cost is constant, let's say
(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)= constant (k)
So when we cross-multiply in the formula
Breakeven* k= Total fixed cost
It shows that Breakeven point is directly proportional to Total fixed cost.
So a reduction in Total fixed cost will result in a reduction in Breakeven point.
