a. Sales $800,000 100% $800,000 100%
Variable cost $600,000 75% $200,000 25%
Contribution margin $200,000 25% $600,000 75%
Fixed cost $40,000 5% $440,000 55%
Operating profit $160,000 20% $160,000 20%
Break even point $160,000 $586,666.67
Workings
Greenback Store Break even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio = 40,000 / 0.25 = 160,000
One-Mart Break even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio = 440,000 / 0.75 = 586,666.67
b. Greenback Store
Increase in sales = $800,000*15% = $120,000
Company profit Increase by + (Increase in sales * Contribution margin ratio = 120,000 * 25% = $30,000
Thus, with the increase in 15% of sales of Greenback Store, the profit of the company increase by $30,000
One-Mart
Increase in sales = $800,000*15% = $120,000
Company profit Increase by + (Increase in sales * Contribution margin ratio = 120,000 * 75% = $90,000

Martinez Corporation purchased machinery on January 1, 2022, at a cost of $268,000. The estimated useful life of the machinery is 4 years, with an estimated salvage value at the end of that period of $31,800. The company is considering different depreciation methods that could be used for financial reporting purposes.
(SEE PICTURE)
Answer:
see below
Explanation:
1. Depreciation using the straight-line method.
Under the straight-line method, depreciation is a constant figure in every year of an asset's useful life.
The calculation of depreciation expense is by establishing the depreciable amount, which is the asset cost minus salvage value.
Depreciable amount = Asset cost - Salvage value.
In this case
Depreciable amount = $268,000 - $31,800
=$236,200
The depreciation rate = 1/4 x 100 = 25%
Depreciation per year
=25/100 x $236,200
=$59,050
year Depreciable cost rate Amount
2022 $236,200 25% $59,050
2023 $236,200 25% $59,050
2024 $236,200 25% $59,050
2025 $236,200 25% $59,050
2. Depreciation under the double-declining method.
The double-declining method uses twice the rate of the straight-line depreciation method.
The depreciation rate for the straight-line method is 25%, double-declining will use 50%. The salvage value is $31,800. The asset is depreciated until the salvage value is achieved.
year Depreciable cost rate Amount
2022 $268,000 50% $134,000
2023 $134,000 50% $67,000
2024 $67,000 50% $33,500
2024 $33,500 - $1,700
Balance : salvage value of $31,800
b The straight-line method would have the highest income reported in 2022. It reports less depreciation expense.
c. both Methods will report the same amount of income over the 4 year period.

Explanation:
The Carbon coal company has 2 mines, a surface mine ad a deep mine. it costs $200 per day to operate the surface mine and $250 to operate the deep mine. Each mine produces a medium grade and a medium-hard grade coal, but in different proportions. This surface mine produces 12 tons of medium grade and 6 tons of medium-hard grade coal per day, and the deep mine produces 4 tons of medium grade and 8 tons of medium-hard grade coal every day. The company has a contract to deliver at least 600 tons of medium grade and 480 tons of medium-hard grade coal within 60 days. How many days should each mine be operated so that the contract can be filled at minimum cost
Answer:
The company should operate the surface mine for 40 days and the deep mine for 30 days. Total costs = $15,500
Explanation:
we have to minimize the following equation: 200S + 250D
where:
S = surface mine
D = deep mine
the constraints are:
12S + 4D ≥ 600 (medium grade coal constraint)
6S + 8D ≥ 480 (medium hard coal constraint
S ≤ 60
D ≤ 60
S, D ≥ 0
S, D are integers
using solver, the optimal solution is 40S + 30D = $15,500
The following are budgeted data: January February March Sales in units 15,000 20,000 18,000 Production in units 18,000 19,000 16,000 One pound of material is required for each finished unit. The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 20% of the following month's production needs. Purchases of raw materials for February would be budgeted to be:______.A) 20,400 pounds.B) 19,600 pounds.C) 18,600 pounds.D) 18,400 pounds.
Answer: 18400 pounds
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the purchase of raw material for February would be budgeted to be:
= (19000 × 1) + (16000 × 1 × 20%) - (19000 × 1 × 20%)
= 19000 + 3200 - 3800
= 18400 pounds
Therefore, purchases of raw materials for February would be budgeted to be 18400 pounds.
You take out a 30-year mortgage to buy a house worth $415,000. The down payment is 17% and the annual interest rate is 3.5%. What are the monthly payments?
Answer:
The monthly payments are $1,546.73
Explanation:
The monthly payments can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value of the mortgage balance = Mortgage worth - (Mortgage worth * Percentage of down payment) = $415,000 - ($415,000 * 17%) = $415,000 - $70,550 = $344,450
P = Monthly payments = ?
r = Monthly interest rate return rate = 3.5% / 12 = 0.035 / 12 = 0.00291666666666667
n = number of months = 30 years * 12 months = 360
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:
$344,450 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00291666666666667))^360) / 0.00291666666666667)
$344,450 = P * 222.694984964558
P = $344,450 / 222.694984964558
P = $1,546.73442715748
Approximating to 2 decimal places, we have:
P = $1,546.73
Therefore, the monthly payments are $1,546.73.

An unfavorable production-volume variance ________. A. is not a good measure of a lost production opportunity B. indicates that the company had reduced its per unit fixed overhead cost to improve sales C. takes into account the effect of additional revenues due to maintaining higher prices D. measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used
Answer:
d) measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used
Explanation:
An unfavorable production-volume variance measures the amount of extra fixed costs planned for but not used. As per production-volume variance extra fixed costs planned for but not used has unfavorable production-volume variance.
When production-volume variance is unfavorable, that means the fixed cost are allocated on lesser number of manufactured units, hence it indicates that the fixed costs are not controlled well.

Answer:
a. -$99,500
b. -$162,000
Explanation:
a. Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest paid - (Ending long-term debt - Beginning long-term debt)
Cash Flow to Creditors = $95,500 - ($1,610,000 - $1,415,000)
Cash Flow to Creditors = $95,500 - $195,000
Cash Flow to Creditors = -$99,500
b. Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividends paid - [(Ending common stock + Ending additional paid-in surplus) - (Beginning common stock + Beginning additional paid-in surplus)]
Cash Flow to Stockholders = $148,000 - [($153,000 + $2,980,000) - ($143,000 + $2,680,000)]
Cash Flow to Stockholders = $148,000 - [$3,133,000 - $2,823,000] = $148,000 - $310,000
Cash Flow to Stockholders = -$162,000

If a consumer buys flour because he loves baking, the flour is counted as part of GDP. If a bakery buys flour as an input to bake things in order to sell, the flour is not counted as part of GDP. Briefly explain why we treat these purchases differently.
Explanation:
Remember, the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is an economic term that refers to the total value of goods and services produced in an economy in a particular period, usually in a period of one year.
Note, the standard way of counting GDP tries to avoid double counting by noting only the final value of goods or services.
Hence, the flour bought by the consumer (the final user) is measured by the producer as output or goods produced, whereas If a bakery buys flour as an input to bake things in order to sell, the flour is not counted as part of GDP because it is not the final value of the goods as value is still going to be transferred to whatever output from the bakery (eg bread, cakes).

Portfolio Average Return Standard Deviation Beta
A 18.9 % 21.6 % 1.92
B 13.2 12.8 1.27
The risk-free rate is 3.1 percent and the market risk premium is 6.8 percent.
2.04 percent
0.47 percent
1.08 percent
1.46 percent
−1.25 percent
Answer:
Alpha of the overall portfolio = 2.04%
Explanation:
The alpha or abnormal return is the excess return given by a stock or a portfolio over its required rate of return. To calculate the alpha of a portfolio containing two portfolios, we first need to calculate the alpha of each individual portfolio and then take a weighted average of these alphas to determine the overall portfolio alpha.
First we need to calculate the required rate of return of each portfolio and deduct it from the Average return of portfolios to calculate individual portfolio alpha.
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate rpM is the market risk premium
r of A = 0.031 + 1.92 * 0.068 = 0.16156 or 16.156%
Alpha of portfolio A = 18.9 - 16.156 = 2.744%
r of B = 0.031 + 1.27 * 0.068 = 0.11736 or 11.736%
Alpha of portfolio B = 13.2 - 11.736 = 1.464%
Alpha of the overall portfolio = 0.45 * 2.744% + 0.55 * 1.464%
Alpha of the overall portfolio = 2.04%
The following transactions were completed by the company. The company completed consulting work for a client and immediately collected $7,000 cash earned. The company completed commission work for a client and sent a bill for $5,500 to be received within 30 days. The company paid an assistant $2,150 cash as wages for the period. The company collected $2,750 cash as a partial payment for the amount owed by the client in transaction b. The company paid $1,000 cash for this period's cleaning services. Required: Enter the impact of each transaction on individual items of the accounting equation. (Enter decreases to account balances with a minus sign.)
Answer:
The Company
The Impact of Each Transaction on the Accounting Equation:
1. Assets (Cash + $7,000) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings + $7,000)
2. Assets (Accounts Receivable + $5,500) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings + $5,500)
3. Assets (Cash -$2,150) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings -$2,150)
4. Assets (Cash +$2,750 Accounts Receivable -$2,750) = Liabilities + Equity
5. Assets (Cash -$1,000) = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings -$1,000)
Explanation:
The Company applies the accounting equation, which states that Assets = Liabilities + Equity. With each transaction, the accounting equation is demonstrated as shown above. This means that each transaction that is properly recorded affects the accounting equation in two ways. Note that the accounting equation is the basis for the double-entry system of financial accounting.

An optimal procedure for organizations to accept projects is to specify a return on investment (ROI) and fund only projects that meet this criterion. A. True B. False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Capital budgeting is needed in any project work as it entails the process and procedures taken in evaluation and selection of long-term investments that are consistent with the firm's goal of maximizing owner's wealth.
Normally, before a company invest or undergo any project, background work is done to know if the project will yet profit or no, feasibility study is carried out and things are put in place. If it is favourable for the firm and profit is high, firms may choose to invest after weighing the pros and cons (advantage and disadvantage) of the project before investment. So return of investment initial investment is not really considered when taking up a project as all project is done at their own risk.
Banana Company hired some students to help count inventory during their semester break. Unfortunately, the students added incorrectly and the 2020 ending inventory was overstated by $6,000. What would be the effect of this error in ending inventory?
Answer: a. 2020 net income will be overstated
Explanation:
Ending Inventory is used in the calculation of Cost of Goods sold. It is subtracted from the Cost of Goods sold so if it is Overstated then that means that Cost of Goods sold is understated.
Cost of Goods sold is subtracted from Revenue to find income so if Cost of Goods sold is Understated then Net Income will be Overstated in turn.
