Answer:

Break-even point= 1,200 DVDs

Explanation:

F<u>irst, we need to calculate the sales proportion:</u>

DVD= 4/5= 0.8

Home entertainment= 1/5= 0.2

<u>Now, we need to calculate the break-even point for the whole company:</u>

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin

Weighted average contribution margin= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)

Weighted average contribution margin= (200*0.8 + 600*0.2) - (160*0.8 + 460*0.2)

Weighted average contribution margin= 60

Break-even point (units)= 90,000/60= 1,500

<u>Finally, the number of DVDs:</u>

DVD= 1,500*0.8= 1,200 DVDs

romanna [79]

Answer:

$30,000 excess

Explanation:

Beginning cash balance + Budgeted receipts - Budgeted disbursements + excess/deficiency = desired ending balance

$18,000 + $175,000 - $174,000 + $X = $49,000

$19,000 + $X                                       = $49,000

$X                                                         = $49,000 - $19,000

$X                                                         = $30,000

marin [14]

Answer:

$11,560

$5666.661

Explanation:

Given the following :

Bill received from accountant = $17,000

This year's marginal tax rate = 32%

Next year's marginal tax rate = 37%

After tax return on investment = 11%

After tax cost of bill is paid in December :

Billed amount * this year's tax rate

$17,000 * ( 1 - 0.32)

= $17,000 * 0.68

= $11,560

B) After tax cost of bill was paid in January:

Billed amount * next year's tax rate * PV factor

From the present value factor table;

PV factor (1 years, 11%) = 0.9009

Hence,

$17,000 * 0.37 * 0.9009 = $5666.661

Delta Insurance Company has a surplus-share treaty with Eversafe Reinsurance. Delta has a retention limit of $200,000, and nine
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Delta is responsible for insuring $200,000 / $1,600,000 = 1/8 of the building

Eversafe is responsible for 1 - 1/8 = 7/8

the loss = $1,600,000 x 40% = $640,000

Delta will pay 1/8 x $640,000 = $80,000

Eversafe will pay $640,000 - $80,000 = $560,000

in order for Eversafe to pay:

  • $600,000, the total loss = $685,714, or 42.86% of the building
  • $700,000, the total loss = $800,000, or 50% of the building
  • $720,000, the total loss = $822,857, or 51.43% of the building
  • $800,000, the total loss = $914,286, or 57.14% of the building
