Answer:

51,487.5

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the minimum guaranteed mileage should the manufacturer announce

Sinces no more than 4% of the tires will have to be replaced First step will be to determine the InvNorm(.96) using normal distribution table

InvNorm(100%-4%)

InvNorm(.96) = 1.75

Now let determine the minimum guaranteed mileage

Let x represent the Minimum guaranteed mileage

(2050*1.75)+47,900=x

x=3,587.5+47,900

x = 51,487.5

Therefore the minimum guaranteed mileage that the manufacturer should announce is 51,487

Airida [17]

Answer:

The combined total capital that would be recorded on the partnership books for the two partners is $79,000

Explanation:

Partnership : In partnership, there are two or more members who are called partners which are ready to share the profit or loss percentage according to their agreed ratio

The combined total capital for both partners is shown below:

= Contributed cash + truck fair value + garage fair value

= $8000 + $ 16,000 + $55,000

= $79,000

The other cost like purchase price, depreciation, construction cost is irrelevant for computation. Thus, these cost will not be considered.

Hence, the combined total capital that would be recorded on the partnership books for the two partners is $79,000

Explanation:

The appropriation of net income among the partners will be as follows,

                                              $                   $

Net Income                                          $153000

<u>Less: Salary to Partner</u>

Christie                                                  (66000)

<u>Less:Interest on Capital</u>

Christie                               36000

Jergens                              <u>46000        (82000)</u>

Remaining Profit                                     5000

<u>Distribution of Remaining Profit</u>

Christie  (5000/2 = 2500)                       2500

Jergens  (5000/2 =2500)                       <u>2500</u>

<u />

<u />

Christie's Share = 66000 + 36000 + 2500    = $104500

Jergen's share = 46000 + 2500   = $48500

Last year, Kaylor Equipment had $15,900 of sales, $500 of net new equity, dividend payments of $75, an addition to retained earn
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

$1,135.05

Explanation:

Given:

Sales = $15,900

Net new equity = $500

Dividend payments = $75

Retained earnings = $418

Depreciation = $680

Interest expense = $511

Tax rate = 21% = 0.21

Now,

Net income = Retained earnings + Dividend payments

= $418 + $75

= $493

Profit before tax = Net income ÷ ( 1 - tax rate )

= $493 ÷ ( 1 - 0.21 )

= $624.05

Therefore,

Earnings before interest and taxes

= Profit before tax + Interest expense

= $624.05 + $511

= $1,135.05
