The original data is :
Data for Hermann Corporation
Per unit Percent of sales
Selling price $ 75 100%
Variable expenses 51 68
Contribution margin $ 24 32%
The fixed expenses are $ 75,000 per month and the company is selling 4000 units per month.
Solution :
Present Proposed
Sales 300000 375000
Less : Variable cost 204000 275000
Contribution margin 96000 100000
Less : Fixed expenses <u> 75000 </u> <u> 75000 </u>
Net income 21000 25000
The net operating income : Increases 4000
Net operating income = increased sales Net income - current sales net income.
Therefore the higher quality component should be used.
Answer:
The planned purchases are given as $34,500 while the value of OTB is $28,900
Explanation:
The Planned purchases is given as
Planned Sales + Planned Markdowns + Planned End of Month Inventory - Planned Beginning of Month Inventory = Planned Purchases
So here the planned sales are 25000
The planned Reductions are 1500
The End of Month inventory is 88000
The Beginning of Month Inventory is 80000 So the value is given as
25000+1500+88000-80000= Planned Purchases
Planned Purchases =34500
The OTB is given as
OTB=Planned Purchases-Commitment
OTB=34500-5600
OTB=28900
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
In 2010,
Real GDP = 600,000
Population = 5,000
Real GDP per person:
= Real GDP ÷ Population
= 600,000 ÷ 5,000
= 120
In 2011,
Real GDP = 636,480
Population = 5,200
Real GDP per person:
= Real GDP ÷ Population
= 636,480 ÷ 5,200
= 122.4
Growth rate of real GDP per person during the year 2011:
= [(Real GDP per person in 2011 - Real GDP per person in 2010) ÷ Real GDP per person in 2010] × 100
= [(122.4 - 120) ÷ 120] × 100
= (2.4 ÷ 120) × 100
= 0.02 × 100
= 2%
It was seen from the data available on the world bank that the United states real GDP per person is growing at an average rate of 2% between 1910 and 2010.
Hence, the Growth rate of real GDP per person during the year 2011 is about the same as average U.S. growth over the last one-hundred years.
Answer:
$44 per case.
Explanation:
If A standard-size box requires 8 board feet of hardwood in the finished product. In addition, 2 board feet of scrap lumber are normally left from the production of one box. Hardwood costs $4.00 per board foot, plus $1.50 in transportation charges per board foot.
Then, To calculate the standard cost of direct materials for the jewelry box, we multiply the direct materials standard price of $4.00 (plus the transportation costs of 1.50 per board foot) by the direct materials standard quantity of 8 feet (8 board feet of hardwood in the finished product) per unit.
The result is a standard direct materials cost of $44 per case.
<h2>Joshua would lose and Sue would benefit from unanticipated inflation.</h2>
Explanation:
- Both Joshua and Sue are associated with fixed pension and fixed interest respectively.
- Now the value of money goes down due to inflation
- So to live as usual, Joshua need to spend some extra money. But considering the fixed income, it's a lose to Joshua
- Whereas Sue is associated with fixed interest of mortgage. She is benefited because, though the inflation has changed the value of all other products, but the fixed interest rate does not change.
- "Fixed-rate mortgage holders are inflation winners", says "Thoma, professor of economics at the University of Oregon"
