EX 2-14 Margin of safety
Obj.5
a. If Canace Company, with a break-even point at $960,000 of sales, has actual sales of $1,200,000,
what is the margin of safety expressed (1) in dollars and (2) as a percentage of sales?
b. If the margin of safety for Canace Company was 20%, fixed costs were $1,875,000, and variable
costs were 80% of sales, what was the amount of actual sales (dollars)? (Hint: Determine the break-
even in sales dollars first.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The margin of safety will be calculated first and this will be:

= Actual sales - Break even sales

= $1,200,000 - $960,000

= $240,000

The margin of safety expressed as a percentage of sales will then be:

= 240,000/1200000 × 100

= 1/5 × 100

= 20%

b. Firstly, we have to calculate the break even sales which will be:

= Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

= 1875000 / (100% - 80%)

= 1875000/20%

= 1875000/0.2

= $9,375,000

Then, to calculate the actual sales goes thus:

% Margin of safety = Margin of safety / Actual sales.

20% = (Actual sales - 9375000) / Actual sales

0.2 × Actual sales = Actual sales - 9375000

Actual sales = $11,718,750

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea:
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Why do you think Americans value the ideas of liberty, equality and justice by Martin Luther King's Letter from a Birmingham Jail?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

I think Americans value the ideas of liberty, equality, and justice by Martin Luther King's "Letter from a Birmingham Jail," because are the same values expressed by the United States founding fathers when they founded the new country and created the new Constitution during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

As Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. advanced as the leader of the civil rights movement in the 1960s, people admired and respected him for using a non-violent approach to protest and organize his demonstrations.

Dr. King was sent to jail in the city of Birmingham Alabama in April 1963, after organizing a march to protest. The problem was that he had no permission to conduct the march and that is why the Birmingham police arrested him. That is when he wrote the famous "Letter from a Birmingham Jail."

In English language, slander can be defined as a malicious, false and unfounded spoken statement about a person.

On the other hand, libel is a falsely written or pictorial statement that potentially damages a person's reputation.

However, the difference between libel and slander is that libel is printed while slander is spoken.

comment on the ending of poem fire and ice​

Answers

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

The conclusion of Frost´s poem is that human nature will most likely be the cause of the destruction of Earth and humanity.

Explanation:

In “Fire and Ice” (1920), by Robert Frost, the author reflects on the possible ways the world could come to an end, by fire or ice. He claims that fire is the most likely, in reference to the possibility of the sun becoming a red star that burns Earth. However, fire is a symbol of desire, meaning that Frost fears the human pursuit of fulfilling every desire could lead to the destruction of the earth, in reference to the gruesome outcome of World War I. Ice, symbolizing hate and indifference, is also an effective way to destroy humanity, according to Frost.

5. What is a thesis statement? Why is it so important that an essay have a thesis statement? (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

1. If you use the wrong punctuation, your writing will not sound correct. Period- To end the sentence. Comma- To represent a pause. Semicolon- To join two or more ideas in a writing piece. Quotations- To use a direct quote in your writing. Hyphen- To create compound words.

2. A topical paragraph takes a single idea or concept and develops it, a function paragraph has a specific purpose in a larger piece of writing. A type of a functional paragraph would be an introductory paragraph because it's telling the reader what the paragraph is going to be about.

3.A simple sentence consists of one clause. A clause consists of a subject and a predicate. The subject contains the noun and the predicate contains the verb. In order for it to be considered a simple sentence it must have these elements.

4. An essay is a piece of writing on a topic . One of the three main parts of an essay is the introductory paragraph. It supports your thesis and topic sentence and is introducing what your paper is going to be about. Second are the body paragraphs. Body paragraphs support your thesis statement and relate back to it in some way. If you're writing a paper about banning plastic straws, you're not going to have one of your body paragraphs about why you should buy a new dog. It doesn't support your thesis nor does it match the rest of your paper. And last is the conclusion or the concluding paragraph. It wraps up the paper, restates the thesis and closes the essay.

5. A thesis statement is the overview of the essay, basically a preview of what the essay is going to be covering. A thesis statement is important because without it you could be just jumping into your paper which could be confusing for the reader. Another reason that a thesis is important is because it's setting the “scene” for what the paper is going to be about.

When a reader is using clues and indirect evidence from the text to deduce meaning, it is called
A) symbolizing

B) applying

C) inferring

D) implying​

Answers

In the situation when the reader attempts to infer meaning out of the text by using hints and indirect evidence provided by the author, it would be called as:

C). Inferring

'Inference' is characterized itself as the 'process of reaching a reasoned or logical conclusion.' A reader reaches an inference or conclusion after evaluating the cues or hints provided within the text by the author along with supporting evidence that justify it. While 'applying' denotes 'act or process of referring to something,' 'symbolizing' means the use of an object, location, etc. to convey a deeper idea, and 'implying' expresses to 'suggest something indirectly.'

Thus, option C is the most appropriate answer.
