Answer:

Accounting revenue = $7,500,000

Tax revenue = $5,000,000

Explanation:

Contribution margin is net of Sales price and variable cost per unit.

Break-even is the level of sales at which the business have no profit no loss. At this point business only covers the the variable and fixed cost.

Average contribution = (Revenue from Accounting x Contribution of accounting services ) + (Revenue from Tax x Contribution of Tax services )

Average contribution = (60% x 30%) + (40% x 40%) = 18% + 16% = 34%

Revenue at break-even = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

Revenue at break-even = $4,250,000 / 34% = $12,500,000

Accounting revenue = $12,500,000 x 60% = 7,500,000

Tax revenue = $12,500,000 x 40% = 5,000,000

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation:

. Determine any gain or loss if the old elevator is replaced.

Cost$120,000 Accumulated depreciation(24,000*)Book value96,000Sales proceeds(25,000) Loss on sale $ 71,000*$120,000 ÷ 5 years = $24,000 [$120,000 – ($120,000 ÷ 5) - $25,000 = $71,000][Cost – Accum. depr. – Sales proceeds = Loss on sale]

b. Prepare a 4-year summarized income statement for each of the following assumptions:

1.The old elevator is retained. Retain Old Elevator Revenues ($240,000 X 4 yrs.) $960,00012

Less costs:Variable costs ($35,000 X 4)$140,000Fixed costs ($23,000 X 4)92,000Selling & administrative116,000*Depreciation96,000444,000Net income$516,000*($29,000 X 4)

2.The old elevator is replaced.Replace Old Elevator Revenues $960,000 Less costs: Variable costs ($10,000 X 4)$ 40,000 Fixed costs ($8,500 X 4) 34,000 Selling and administrative 116,000 Depreciation 160,000350,000 Operating income 610,000 Less: Loss on old elevator 71,000 Net income $539,000[$960,000 – (($10,000 x 4) + ($8,500 x 4) + ($29,000 x 4) + ($40,000 x 4)) - $71,000 = $539,000][Rev. – ((VC x No. of yrs.) + (FC x No. of yrs.) + (S&A exp. x No. of yrs.) + (Ann. depr. x No. of yrs.) – Loss on old elevator = Net inc.]

c. Using incremental analysis, determine if the old elevator should be replaced. Retain Old Elevator Replace Old Elevator Net Income Increase (Decrease) Variable operating costs $140,000$ 40,000$ 100,000 Fixed operating costs 92,000 34,000 58,000 New elevator cost-160,000 (160,000) Salvage on old elevator-(25,000)25,000Totals$232,000$209,000$ 23,000d. Why any gain or loss should be ignored in the decision to replace the old elevator.

United Machining's margin was 2% and turnover was 3.0 on sales of $60 million for the year. On the basis on this information____

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

B, net income for the year was $1,200,000, average assets were $20 million, ROI was 6%

Explanation:

net income is calculated by multiplying the percentage margin by the sales. We have,

(2 ÷ 100) × $60,000,000

= 0.02 × $60,000,000

= $1,200,000

To calculate the average assets, sales is divided by the turnover.

we have, ($60,000,000 ÷ 3.0)

= $20,000,000.

To calculate the ROI, margin and turnover are multiplied.

we have,

(2% × 3.0) = 6%

Cheers.

Becky only eats out at Macaroni Grill and eats out three times per month. She receives a raise from $33,200 to $33,500 and decid

iragen [17]

Answer:

55.58

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Initial demand per month, Q₁ = 3

Final demand per month, Q₂ = 5

Initial price, P₁ = $33,200

Final price, P₂ = $33,500

Now,

elasticity of demand using midpoint method is calculated as :

= $\frac{\textup{percent change in demand}}{\textup{percent change in supply}}$

or

= $\frac{\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{\frac{Q_1+Q_2}{2}}}{\frac{P_2-P_1}{\frac{P_1+P_2}{2}}}$

on substituting the respective values, we get

= $\frac{\frac{5-3}{\frac{5+3}{2}}}{\frac{33,500-33,200}{\frac{33,200+33,500}{2}}}$

or

= $\frac{\frac{2}{4}}{\frac{300}{\frac{66,700}{2}}}$

or

= $\frac{0.5}{\frac{300}{33,350}}$

= 55.58
