Answer:
B. 66.67%
Explanation:
Contribution is the difference between the company's total revenue and the total variable cost. The ratio of the contribution to sales or revenue gives the contribution margin ratio.
The contribution may also be derived from the addition of the fixed cost and the operating income.
Contribution margin
= $115,000 + $54,000
= $169,000
Let the number of units to be sold to achieve targeted income be U
6U - 2U - 115,000 = 54,000
4U = 169,000
U = 42,250
Contribution margin ratio = 169000/(6 * 42,250)
= 66.67%
Answer: $975 million
Explanation:
Given the above details, we can solve for Earnings Before Tax and Interest with the following formula,
Operating Cash Flow = EBIT – Taxes on EBIT + Depreciation
Making EBIT the subject would turn it to be,
EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation
We have all of the above except the EBIT and Operating Cash Flow.
Luckily we can solve for the Operating Cash Flow with the details given using,
Operating cash flow = Free Cash Flow + Investment in operating capital
Therefore,
= $491 million + $321 million
= $812 million
Operating cash flow is $812 million
Plugging it into the original formula we have,
EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation
EBIT = $812 million + $309 million - $146 million
EBIT = $975 million
Earnings before Taxes and Interest is $975 million.

Answer:
c) relatively high variable costs
Explanation:
Operating leverage is a ratio that is used to analyze and understand the cost structure of a business. It gives the relation between the variable and fixed cost to the the total cost of running the business.
A business with a large amount of fixed cost relative to variable is said to have a high operating leverage . For such business, operating income would be more volatile because the operating income would not increase in commensurate proportion as sales revenue.
And a company with low operating leverage has low amount of fixed cost relative to variable cost and therefore a relatively high variable costs
Operating leverage is calculated as
Contribution /Earnings before interest and Tax
Answer:
purchases = 160000
Explanation:
given data
beginning inventory = $140,000
amount of inventory on hand = $80,000
net sales = $400,000
gross profit rate = 40%
solution
we first Computation of cost of goods sold hat is
Gross profit rate = 
× 100
= 
= = 
= 100 Gross profit = 16000000
so
Gross profit = 160000
and
Cost of goods sold is = sales - gross profit
so
Cost of goods sold = 400000 - 160000
Cost of goods sold = 240000
and
Cost of goods sold = opening inventory + purchases - closing inventory
so put here value
240000 = 140000 + purchases - 60000
so purchases = 160000
