Answer:

22.7 %

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return = Average Profits / Average Investments × 100

Where,

Average Profit = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years

                        = $35,000

and

Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Salvage Value) ÷ 2

                                  = ($278,000 + $30,000) ÷ 2

                                  = $154,000

Therefore,

Accounting rate of return = $35,000 ÷ $154,000

                                          = 22.7 %

Digby's product manager is considering lowering the price of the Daft product by $2.50 and wants to know what the impact will be
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

D.  34.00%

Explanation:

The computation of the new contribution margin is shown below:

As we know that

Contribution Margin = Net Sales Revenue - Variable Expenses

where,

Net sales revenue is

= 604 units × $32.5

= $19,630

The variable expense = Total material cost + total labor cost

Total Material Cost = 604 units × $14.36 = $8,673.44

Total Labor Cost = 604 units × $7.09 = $4,282.36

So, the variable expense is

= $8,673.44 + $4,282.36

= $12,955.8

Now

Contribution margin = $19,630 - $12,955.8 = $6,674.2

And,

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ net sales

So,  Contribution margin = $6,674.2 ÷ $19,630

= 34.00%

lozanna [386]

Answer:

40 days.

Explanation:

In the absence of the information about opening receivables, the closing figure is assumed to be the average accounts receivables,

Hence,

Debtors Turnover Ratio for Reagan:

= Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivables

= $608,000 ÷ $73,922

= 8.22 times

Assuming that the number of days in a year as 365,

the firm's days sales uncollected for the year works out to:

= 365 days ÷ Debtors Turnover Ratio

= 365 ÷ 8.22

= 40.40 or 40 days.
